Olivia Reckert.

I was raised in Memphis, Tennessee and moved to New York City in 2011. I attended SUNY Fashion Institute of Technology and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing and Advertising Communications.

During my time in NYC, I expended my knowledge of art and design. I worked in sports marketing, creating artistic marketing material for brands and custom branded products for events. After getting a taste of the corporate world, I decided that working more creatively in Freelance would allow me to work with many individuals, brands, and companies doing an array of projects.

I have done murals for offices in NYC. I have done custom holiday windows for storefronts all around NYC.

I have created custom artworks and hand painted furniture pieces for Housing Works charity as well as The Pink Agenda.

In 2019, I focused on the art of fashion and worked along side Christian Benner creating custom designs and painting leather jackets for his brand.

I currently call Chattanooga, Tennessee my home due to relocating after Covid-19, and have been truly enjoyment the beauty of Tennessee that I took for granted in my youth.
