Printopia

I’m Marlenna, the founder of Printopia. I’m a digital art creator drawing inspiration from the world around me, blending illustration and typography using creative tools such as Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, and Procreate, all to evoke emotion. I decided to create my brand Printopia back in January 2024. It’s crazy to think of how much has changed since then. During this process, I came to realise my true creativity and potential. Why not unleash the beast and see what happens (my life motto). I basically thought why the hell not. So why did I decide to create Printopia? I’m very passionate about channeling creativity, expressing a multitude of views on all aspects of life, exploring quirky designs, and combining the weird and wonderful things that just click. I’m constantly learning all things design so I’m keen to continually develop as a business owner, designer, and wordsmith.

After returning from 6 months of travelling across 9 countries, I’m ready to take my small business to the next level. When I’m not creating or printing, you’ll find me in nature, cooking, exploring new places, and hunting for second hand furniture and clothing bargains-if you know you know.

There’s something magical about art and design. How a single piece can catch your eye, ignite excitement, and leave you wanting more. This is exactly why I would love to be a part of the Makers Market community to help myself develop as a small business owner and also be inspired by all the other attendees!
