About GBAC

Hi There!

I'm Hope

My name is Hope, the owner and creator at GBAC! Ever since I could hold a crayon, I've been drawing. Art has always been a way for me to let my mind think freely. I started with pencil and paper tracing in my elementary school art classes because what 4th grader can draw a detailed dragon?

Through grade school, I was always enrolled in an art class, which furthered my love for the hobby and open my skills up to new mediums. I discovered oil painting, digital art, and 3D modeling.

Before GBAC

Hope Does Art

As I began my undergraduate degree, I wanted to keep my love for art going. To do so, I enrolled in an art minor, but quickly found out that the art of time management does not sit well with Mechanical Engineering. I decided to focus on my major and put art on somewhat of a side burner.

I tried to keep the spirit alive by doing Bob Ross inspired paintings in my door room and creating low poly art with Adobe Illustrator. These were things I could do to release my stress and anxiety about school. I coined Hope Does Art, I know, very creative, during my junior year of college. I worked to grow my presence on social media by participating in small collaborations with other artists while I worked to make my brand something more.

Today

Golden Bee Art Co

After I graduated, more time was put towards growing myself as an artist and figuring out what I wanted to do with this passion I put so much time and effort into. Golden Bee Art Co was born. Leaning on my dad's love for bees and my mom's passion for crafting, I created a brand that represents my freewill to create whatever my heart desires while staying in touch with nature. Regardless of the time I have, GBAC will always be something I can immerse myself in and be creative with.

While balancing a full-time career and pursuing my master's degree keeps me busy, I've discovered a sense of peace amidst the chaos. My brain thrives on creativity and with brain breaks at work or during homework sessions, I take to a notebook and jot down all of the new ideas I have with hopes of turning them into something more.
