Here's Alicia's story in her own words:
I began my artistic journey as a fashion illustrator in NYC, illustrating for world renowned companies like Gucci, Women's Wear Daily, etc. Through my creative process I was recruited by a world wide shoe company designing and creating slippers and shoes for huge licensed companies, including Hello Kitty, Thomas the Engine, Teenage Mutant Ninjas, Strawberry Shortcake, and more.
For the past 13 years I have been transferring Images onto tiles for indoor and outdoor, commercial and residential projects and have an excellent reputation in quality and customer service. Kiln-fired tiles are guaranteed for a lifetime.
