Wendy CostaWendy lives and works in Upstate New York in a restored Gothic Church built in 1829. For over 23 years she has created illustration and poetry for her kitchen and fashion line. Wendy paints all of the original designs. Her partner, Rod, makes all the patterns and does all the sewing. The pieces not only use materials and machines from the US, they are truly handmade, form start to finish.
Wendy and Rod collect and restore vintage micro cars. They own 9 rare mid-fifties cars that are pure art.
"I love the quote, "Freud states...true happiness comes from realizing a childhood wish." That sums up what I do...a dream come true. It is also my wish to have amy art accessible to all people and to be affordable and functional." -- Wendy Costa
