La Familia Green

Chicago, ILBrand · Paper goods

Greetings from La Familia Green in Chicago! La Familia Green is an eco-friendly company. All packages ship from Chicago via USPS first class mail in a padded or rigid mailer. We ship orders within 7 days (usually faster). Please remember that the USPS is experiencing some delays. All La Familia Green products begin in my Chicago studio as an original drawing, print, or collage. We do not use AI to create any products. Cards are printed by Catprint in Fairport, NY. And stickers are produced by MakeStickers here in Chicago. Rachel packs them up and sends them out to you! A little about me...I grew up among the dusty tumbleweeds of Lubbock, Texas. And after moving to the Midwest in high school, I completed a BFA in painting and printmaking at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Graduation forced the lesson of how to live and work as an artist—that meant retail by day, artist by night. Attempting to integrate retail skills with artistic training and a love of multiples led to the birth of La Familia Green in 2005. I am a fourth generation small business owner. I love the immediacy and intimacy of cards. You buy a card, write a note and send it out into the world. I never know how many people will experience - hold, use, enjoy - my work. I also love that I can easily and quickly express my interests through this medium. As new card ideas come to me, I jot them down in notes app. Running and rescue pets are my passions. I donate 10% a month back to local charities. I am also proud to be vegan - so keep in mind that all of those corndogs and nachos in my work are plant based! ;) My studio is located in the Greenleaf Art Center on the far north side of Chicago. My dogs Zuzu and Stickers greet visitors at the door. Thanks for stopping by, Mollie Green
