dawn pres
Artist and Designer in Weston, CT.
Artist, Designer, owner and Superhost of an organic Air B&B, mom of 2 adult men, (😳) PT Interior Designer, often in need of heady conversations, boiling yoga, being surrounded by things with more legs than myself, introspective podcasts, feeding people, trying to save the world, obsessed with personal growth, integrity, and frosted cupcakes. And in no particular order. I’ll eat a chocolate cupcake while I’m trying to save the world, while wildly swinging a Nerf light saber while I'm in Chair pose. Makes no difference to me.
Prior to living and working in Westport and now Weston, CT., I lived in New York since birth, grew up in a family of artists and writers, graduated from SVA, and had a fast-paced 15 year career in New York City as an Art Director in Advertising. For about 15 years, I lived and worked there, and had the honor to work with and for, some of the greatest creative minds around.
My ultimate mission is to use my skills and passions to promote a kinder, more connected world, and hopefully in the process make people a little healthier, mindful, and empowered to make smart choices, making a small, green ripple somewhere on this earth.
Well over a year to create, with countless weekends pasted behind a computer until dawn, I’m happy to announce my t-shirt business turned NFT project on OpenSea.io. (Formerly Faceplanttees.com)
A plant-based (and plant-faced) digital collectible, NFT design mission to help raise money for farm animal rescue.
My varied professional interests and curiosities have undoubtedly led me down a variety of employment paths that have given me the ability to wear many hats and think on my feet.
However on a personal level, and as an INFJ, I'm somewhat different, and not terribly adventurous. Meaning, you'll never see a brunette traversing the Himalayas during a snowstorm in a thong, on a giraffe, juggling hay thrashers and think... 'Wait, is that Dawn???' But professionally, I've always been super adventurous, entrepreneurial-spirited, and down for most challenges. I said most. Let's not get weird.
And talking. I like talking. So let's do that.
