The artist behind the work

Hi, I'm Baylie.

I’m an artist, teacher, coach, and creative based in Southern California. I love bringing ideas to life through art and whatever project sparks excitement next.

What started as making gifts and decorations for friends quickly turned into a creative business built around celebrating people, milestones, and moments worth remembering.

The story

From Dashgnar to byBaylie

A rebrand isn't just a new name — it's permission to grow into who you already are.

Early days

Started making things for fun — hand-lettered cards, painted signs for friends, custom gifts.

Dashgnar

Launched dashgnar designs: a scrappy creative side hustle that grew into real client work.

The pivot

Outgrew the name. The work had evolved — more personal, more intentional, more Baylie.

bybaylie

Rebranded to bybaylie. Same hands, same love for color — just a name that finally fits.

Value

Handmade

Every piece is made by hand — no templates, no shortcuts, no two exactly alike.

Value

Colorful

Bold palettes, unexpected combinations, and a healthy disregard for playing it safe.

Value

Intentional

Good design tells a story. I take time to understand yours before I pick up a brush.

Value

Collaborative

You know your vision best. My job is to listen, translate, and make it better than you imagined.

02
We Talk It Through

I'll ask questions, share ideas, and make sure I understand the vision before anything gets made.

I Get to Work

Brush in hand, I create your piece. You'll see progress along the way and have room to give feedback.

You Love It

Final delivery, ready to hang, wear, or hand out. Made with care, made for you.
