Hello!

At Tupalee’s, we create with meraki—a Greek word meaning to do something with soul, creativity, and love; to leave a piece of yourself in your work.

What started as a spontaneous creative spark has grown into a shared passion between husband and wife. Our art blends reclaimed wood, resin, and natural textures to tell stories of place, connection, and transformation. From cedar fences weathered by time to glints of resin mimicking sky and water, each piece carries history and heart.

Our work is grounded in contrast—wild and geometric, bold and minimal, old and renewed. We craft slowly and intentionally, letting each design emerge from the character of the materials.

Tupalee’s is more than art. It’s a reflection of how we see the world: imperfect, beautiful, and worth preserving.

How did it start...

Creating is my ultimate form of self-care. It's where I rediscover myself and find solace in the process. My journey into artistry truly began with my first mosaic. The experience resonated deeply with me—I cherished every aspect, from wielding the tools to the exhilarating flow of creativity. It's in this realm of endless possibilities that I found my true calling, fueled by my passion for seeing the world through fresh perspectives.

How did I get here...

No, really, how did I get here?!?!

Never did I imagine I'd create art. It started with supporting my wife's shows, then experimenting with resin. Inspired by the northern lights, I began crafting landscapes. Hooked, we added depth with laser-cut details. Now, art is a passion I never saw coming.
