ADRIENNE VITA Hel lo! I am Adrienne Vita and I’m an artist in Portland, Oregon. I love living here and have for over a decade now. Growing u p in Connecticut on Long Is land Sou nd, with frequent trips to New Yor k city, were big sources of ins piration for m e. I began stu dying animation and graphic des ign at the Sc hoo l of Visual Arts with a career doing just that. In 2007, I opened u p my own shop and began sel ling my art online, in boutiques, at art shows. As I’ve gone further on this journey, my love of painting my u nique animals, environm ents, c haracters, hand l ettering, co lor com binations and repeat pattern has b rought m e into licens ing my wor k. It’s been a fu n door to open to a wor ld of seeing my art on soc ks, objects, books, magazines and so muc h more to com e. When I’m not in my stu dio I’m taking wal ks, riding my bike, ex ploring nature and being happy. My wish is for my love of what I do to extend over to you.
