The mission of Artfully Awear is to create living works of art.
Artfully Awear is a movement dovetailing art and clothing, featuring hand-painted and embellished garments created by Ariel Adkins. But it’s not just about the clothes; it’s about the people who wear them. It’s a form of expression that creates a deeper engagement with the world and those in it.
“Donning capes, dresses, and coveralls in bright colors and bold patterns, Adkins draws inspiration from a variety of aesthetics and eras to make garments for herself and for people she meets who share a similar love for the power of expression.”
