Suite Tart

Suite Tart

Size: determined by artist


We will be working with Lulu Locks, owner of Providence Pin Up and SuiteTart.com, who is looking to combine her businesses into one united venture under the Suite Tart name. This new company will need an illustration to help with branding, something that is eye-catching and represents the many services of the new Suite Tart Empire which includes a salon (having eco-friendly options for hair color and such), boutique (promoting handmade and local clothing, jewelry, make up, etc), art gallery, and a studio to continue the Pin Up services and more.

We are not trying to make a logo or incorporating text (she has a graphic designer). Your image will need to be a vignette.



Lulu has said she is open to your ideas, and the following are notes from her:

• Clients are not 100% female, so nothing too girly.

• Lulu enjoys feminine qualities with a twist and androgynous themes. Feel free to get inspiration from the 1970’s, glam rock, Americana, retro, rock n’ roll, Blondie, The Donnas, David Bowie, and such. We are looking for a “Hard meets Soft” feeling.

• Favorite colors include sea foam green, mustard, avocado, and rust. Pink is okay as an accent color, but again…nothing too girly.

• The Pin Up studio is a part of Suite Tart, but not all of it. The studio does “Jack and Jill” shoots with couples, so both genders are involved.

• The new Suite Tart will also represent Lulu as an artist for hire at weddings and other special events. Think about how your image helps to reinforce her as an individual along with her business. A bio is available on ProvidencePinup.com.
