This card features an image from an original painting by Shachi Kale of Chandler, Arizona and India. Printed by Artists to Watch in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Shachi Kale is a visual storyteller, graphic designer, and children’s book illustrator. Her art is a reflection of her journey through life...both the external journey, from India to Arizona, the journey through marriage and motherhood and an internal journey that takes place as she traverses new emotional landscapes. Shachi's paintings have a narrative woven into them, and her depictions of the female form are both autobiographical and universal to women grappling with their place in the world.
Shachi uses watercolors, acrylics, embroidery, and digital arts. She is fascinated by folk art from around the world, the artists’ use of flat colors, simple perspective, and storytelling. She is also drawn to Indian miniature art and the patterns and decorative elements used in them. The vibrant and rich colors of her palette are a legacy of her Indian heritage, and the narrative elements are an influence from her work as a children’s book illustrator.

Life is busy, but we can never underestimate the power of a handwritten note. All the little social media “Likes” in passing will never compare to receiving a lovely handwritten message from a friend or loved one. When paired with amazing art & perhaps a perfect quote, it helps us to feel grounded, connected, and part of the whole.

Therefore, we only print on recycled paper! Each printed product we create has the highest post-consumer content available in a sheet that will still produce a high-quality reproduction.
