Feature: The Peach Pit & Giveaway




weekending 006 copy


Hi! My name is Tamara Brink and I live in Denver with my cute husband Vito and amazing dog Cassius. I'm an elementary art teacher by day and a painter, crafter and doodler by night. Growing up in Northern Idaho my mother taught me to use my hands to make * magic*! I'm constantly being inspired by nature and LOVE doodling what I see in my surroundings. I recently had a great opportunity to work with Heidi Klum to design a backplate for an LG phone. It was an amazing opportunity that inspired a lot of new artwork I now have in my etsy shop... go look!

GIVEAWAY
Go say hello on Tams blog, then enter your name in the comments of this post for a chance to win TWO free prints from The Peach Pit!!!

ETA: Winner posted here.




Thanks Tamara! SO thrilled to share your work on Freckled Nest... I love your style, talent, photographs and smile :) XOXO, LA

    Her art is fantastic!

    And weird fact, I saw Backstreet Boys in concert a couple years ago and AJ was wearing the same RUN DMC shirt as Tamara's husband in that picture, haha. :)
