ABOUT
Life’s too short for beige. That’s why we’re here to bring some color and good vibes to your world! Welcome to Wet Paint, where candles meet color, and life gets a little brighter.
Wet Paint started with one mission: to bring good vibes into everyday moments. I’ve always been captivated by how color can change a mood and how scent and sound can transport you. As an artist and self-proclaimed candle fanatic, I wanted to combine my colorful art style, my love of music, and the simple magic of a flickering flame. Wet Paint is my way of blending those loves into something you can hold in your hand and enjoy every day.
Every candle is hand-poured with care and crafted to add a pop of personality to your space, with each scent designed to evoke feelings, memories, and moments. Your space should feel like you and our candles are here to help you set the mood, spark creativity, or just enjoy a little moment of calm.
At Wet Paint, music isn't just background noise; it's the heartbeat of my creativity and has been for as long as I can remember. For me, each note resonates with a specific hue, and every melody paints a vivid picture. Beyond personal inspiration, music holds profound benefits for well-being. Engaging with music has been shown to reduce stress, enhance mood, and even improve cognitive function. Personally, throughout my health journey with chronic illness, I've experienced firsthand the healing power of music. It has been a source of comfort, strength, and inspiration, helping me navigate challenges and find joy in everyday moments through the toughest of times. It's a universal language that heals, uplifts and connects us all. No matter what you need, there’s a sound out there for you.
From the moment I could hold a crayon, art became my playground—a boundless realm where imagination and color knew no limits. Every blank canvas is an invitation to explore, to express, and to evoke emotions through vibrant hues and organic compositions. Color, with its endless possibilities, is at the core of my creative process. It possesses the remarkable ability to convey emotions, tell stories, and transform spaces. From my memory vault—a bedroom redecoration adventure that became a defining moment in my artistic journey. It was my seventh birthday and I chose a bold palette of purple, teal, and lime green. My mom, understandably apprehensive about such vibrant choices, asked if I was sure. With the unfiltered confidence of a child, I replied, "How can you be afraid of color?"
That fearless embrace of color has been my guiding principle ever since. Through Wet Paint, I invite you to share in this vibrant journey & to break free from the mundane. So tune into a playlist of good vibes, light your candle, and most importantly—live life in color.
