LILY & VAL
In 2012 Valerie McKeehan hand lettered a chalkboard sign because she loved the nostalgic, cozy look – this humble chalkboard was the start of a new journey and Lily & Val was born shortly thereafter. Through the years Valerie has applied the same philosophy that started it all: create unique, meaningful artwork that she wants to own and be surrounded by. She is especially drawn to art that encourages, uplifts, and celebrates a slower way of living.

PAM VALE
Pam Vale is an artist to her core. As far back as she can remember, Pam has been an observer. Having a parent that was a renowned entertainer made it possible from the beginning for her to freely accept that she could make a living doing what she loved. There was never any doubt for Pam or anyone who knew her that she would grow up to be a professional artist in some form.
