Meet the Owner
Hello! I’m Irina Lombardo, the owner and founder of Porvana Arts & Crafts Supplies. My artistic journey has spanned most of my life, and I hold college degrees in both sculpting and graphic design. I began my career by creating corporate identities, which involved designing logos, labels, and packaging for both emerging and established companies. For the past 25 years, I’ve worked as a freelance illustrator, creating greeting cards, children’s books, yard flags, and murals. One of my most memorable projects was applying my artwork to a Stratocaster guitar for Fender Musical Instruments in honor of the Stratocaster’s 50th anniversary. As a freelance artist, I have used many types of materials. I’ve also had to work within a budget in order to insure a profit. My ultimate goal in starting Porvana Arts & Crafts Supplies is to provide both professional artists and hobbyists with high-quality products that they can afford. 🎨✨Please feel free to visit my online portfolio at www.lombardoart.com
