Hello
About Me
My name is Alexis Estes. I am a Carbondale local artist, owner and creator of Lexy's Art Room. Thank you for visiting my site and supporting my small business. I can't wait to meet you and create some beautiful works of art! Read more below to find out more about me and my journey to create Lexy's Art Room.
The Dream: Creating Lexy's Art Room
The inspiration behind Lexy’s Art Room stems from my deep passion for art and mental health. I strongly believe in the therapeutic power of art.
Initially, the concept was a personal self-care endeavor post-pandemic. What started as a private outlet transformed into paint "therapy" gatherings with friends, eventually leading to the establishment of "Lexy's Art Room".
In 2021, I graduated with a degree in psychology and art. Leveraging my unique background, my mission is to advocate for art as a therapeutic tool, positively impacting our community by providing a safe space, workshops, products, and art tailored to individual needs.
Seeing the joy on attendees' faces at craft events, regardless of age, gender, or artistic background, brings me great satisfaction. It's particularly gratifying to see the excitement of first-time painters at their own creations. I believe everyone should have the opportunity to express themselves through art.
This journey not only aligns with my fundamental values but also provided me with the opportunity to utilize my abilities to assist others, foster creativity, and advocate for overall well-being.
