CP Created Designs strives to create distinctive pieces of art. Each piece begins with a silicon mold, followed by the addition of high-grade resin. Once the curing process begins, unique materials are added to create a one-of-a-kind piece of art, such as seashells, colored crushed shells, charms, dried flowers, wine corks, glitter, stickers, pictures, novelty items, and mica powder to color the resin.
Allowing the resin to cure (harden) for at least forty-eight hours is vital to the process. Once this is done, the design is removed from the mold. This is the best part of the process because you can fully see what has been created.
The vibrant colors glisten under the clear epoxy, as do the different designs and materials used.
Emily Patricia Depew, the creator of the paintings, was born in Oregon in 1931. She was the oldest of six brothers. She later moved to California and raised five children.
At the age of 85, she discovered her passion for painting. Between 2015 and 2018, she created over 60 paintings.
Now, I, her daughter, am sharing her beautiful paintings as canvas prints.
Celena Parish comes from a family of artists. Her mother handsewn quilts for many years then at age eight-five began oil painting and painted over sixty paintings. Her siblings also create beautiful art and are highly regarded in their art community.
Celena’s art journey began three years ago making tables with bottles caps covered in epoxy. It was just a hobby at first but has grown into a well-established business. Her current inspirations come from her own imagination, but also customers requesting a special order.
When clients request something special, she works closely with them to create a personal and memorable piece of art. This relationship is important as it is their inspiration and ideas, she must envision to make the final piece something special.
Born and raised along the Southern California coast, Celena enjoys incorporating various seashells in designs. Colored crushed shells and sea glass highlight the vibrant beach inspired pieces of art.
Celena is always open to suggestions which is where many of the cross designs come from. It was a special request, and she worked together with her client to ensure the cross respectfully represented what they wanted.
Inspiration comes in all shapes, colors, and forms. If you have something special in mind contact Celena and she’ll let you know if it is something create.
Celena is also an author, and self-published her first book, The Inheritance, in the fall of 2024. The sequel, The Revenge, will be in the fall of 2025.
