Hi, I'm Tess ♡ creator and artist behind Todo Tess Co! I created my small business with the mindset of creating art through life. I lost my little brother in August of 2019 and he lived by the saying never wasting dreams, which helped me find purpose in life after losing him.
In 2020, amidst the global pandemic, I began my journey of self-discovery and self-love. I figured out that I wanted to create art in many forms and share it with those around me. Art is the way I have communicated most of my life and am happy that my brother can continue to give me the confidence to showcase it!
He inspired me to follow my dreams, and to not care what anyone has to say about them! May of 2021, I graduated with my BA in Psychology with a minor in Sociology. I was able to walk across a stage as a first-generation student, paving the way for those who look like me, and share similar identities as me! My brother is living through me and I am living through him; en el ojo del arte, siempre hay vida!
