A special thanks to...
My parents, Shelley and Bryan Sibley, my husband, Trent Brasseaux and Courtenay Mendell for supporting me and helping me see Sibley Designs through. And thank you to all of my friends and family for always giving me advice, laughing at my jokes and giving me the confidence to be myself.
My name is Lauren Sibley Brasseaux and in the Fall of 2014, I created Sibley Designs.
I had an inkling to start my own business ever since I graduated from Louisiana State University in May 2013. Friends and family know that if you received a hand-made anything from me, it meant you were worth the thought and time it took me to create. These cards were second nature to me, and it wasn't until my move back home to Lafayette, Louisiana in August of 2014 that I found the courage to slowly delve into the entrepreneurial world that I have admired for so long. Now, Sibley Designs has grown to more than I could ever have imagined. Custom paintings, invitations, bridal suites, announcements, wine glasses and much more.
About the cards...
Always a cheerleader at heart, I love to support and represent my alma maters and my sorority, and I can only assume that everyone else does as well! (Go Cougars, go Tigers and AOT). Monograms are a southern staple, greeting cards are an instant smile-maker, and invitations are lifetime keepsakes. Each card, menu, invitation, tag etc. is hand-painted, scanned and printed onto quality paper. If you can't seem to find what you're looking for, it is no problem! Let's Create.
About the paintings...
As a Lafayette native, I love using the inspiration I see every day. Even when I go on a run around the neighborhood, I am snapping pictures of things I see that might turn into paintings later on. Maintaining that connection to my hometown is important to me because this community has supported me from the beginning. I paint things that make me happy. Flowers have always, always made me happy, so I naturally gravitate towards nature, whether it is a detailed study or scenery. I tend to obsess over the details of a piece. I am a very realistic artist, and I try to find the beauty of detail in the simplest of things.
