Hello, I’m Dominique Macklin, the creative force and founder behind Artfull Inspirations. This brand is a reflection of my lifelong passion for art and design.
Art has always played a pivotal role in my life, serving as a vital form of expression. While I enjoy various artistic mediums, including decoupage, origami, and macramé, my first and enduring love has been graphic art. I fondly remember embarking on this journey with the Windows 97 Paint program and Microsoft Word, where my fascination with design began.
The transition from a cherished hobby to a professional pursuit occurred during my time in the web development program at Post University. Although the curriculum primarily focused on coding languages—an area that did not captivate my interest—the demands of coursework left little time for my true passion: exploring new design software. It was during this period that I discovered WordPress and no-code web building. This revelation led me to invest in my first domain, artfullinspirations.com, where I could bring my creative vision to life by showcasing my designs on various products.
The name “Artfull” emerged during a conversation with a friend about boredom. I realized that my diverse artistic hobbies allowed me to lead an “art-full” life, and I decided to cultivate this idea further.
Through my art, I aspire to create a profound impact. My work is designed to foster deeper connections with oneself and one’s experiences. I aim to provide healing from everyday struggles and empower individuals in their personal journeys. At its core, I want my art to serve as a source of inspiration.
My ultimate goal is to inspire the world with products that feature artfully crafted words, fulfilling our innate human need for passionate self-expression. My endeavors through Artfull Inspirations stand as a testament to my lifelong dedication to graphic design and my unwavering belief in the transformative power of art to inspire and motivate.
