love of art, love of tees

Instead of taking home mass produced souvenirs, you can support Moab’s vibrant art community by purchasing our one of a kind designs.

We exist to empower artists.

Inspired by the environment & ecology around them, Holls Walck delves into connections rooted within the natural world.  

 

The Moab-based illustrator's work is fueled by wilderness and isolation. Originally a northeast transplant, Walck relocated to the West to focus on artistic exploration. 

Focusing on elements such as hydrology, selenography, desert textures, native flora & fauna, Walck’s illustrations are a personal reflection of their experiences and relationships with the sacredness of the natural spaces they encounter & dwell.

“I help artists cultivate sustainable incomes and enrich their brand”

drawing the connection between business and art

Creating is part of an artist's DNA. It’s their inner nature. It’s integral to their happiness and wellbeing. It just flows from them! Creating a sustainable income from art, though, often feels clunky. It’s a challenge that paints many artists into a corner.

 

That’s where Arteesian comes in. We want to enable our local artists to focus more on what they love. Here, it’s my job to cultivate trust, respect and growth with every artisan so they can thrive.

 

I’m the business oriented left brain to their creative right brain. Together, it’s a fun and harmonious balance which makes our community a healthier, more vibrant place to live and visit.
