About Me

Hi there! 

My name is Mandee Givens, and I am a visual artist that specializes in creative marketing and design. Fun fact: I am also a self-taught artist that loves painting with acrylic and watercolor! My artistic background allows me to look for unique and captivating ways to showcase small businesses and entrepreneurs.  With over six years of experience, my goal is to achieve growth and profitability by utilizing effective language and visual tools.  I have been creating art on the Central Coast for more than 10 years and have been featured at various maker's markets and businesses. The natural beauty of our earth inspires me, and I strive to create pieces that evoke emotion and captivate my audience. I'm passionate about art and its power to connect us all. I'm excited to be able to share my work with the world and to be able to inspire others to create and grow.

 I look forward to connecting with you!

Examples of my achievements include: 

• Creation of The Vendor Resource Center, an online platform that connects vendors with events to sign up for in San Luis Obispo & Santa Barbara Counties
• Coordinator for the SLO County Food System Coalition
• Internship with Renee Rose Photography where I am learning about product and portrait photography
• General Business Specialization Certification from Cuesta College
• Creation of Atlas Arts where I showcase my personal artwork at local markets and businesses
• Website management and/or creation for Atlas Arts, MarVista Dental, Shirt Surfer, Renee Rose Photography, SLO County Food System Coalition, and more.
