The artist

Hi, I’m Tavia.

I’ve been drawing, painting, and obsessing over tiny details for as long as I can remember. Somewhere between lectures and late nights, that fixation found its way onto ten little canvases - and I haven’t looked back since.

I’m a full-time university student, and Pressed by Tavia is how I’m turning a real talent into something that supports me. Every set is sculpted, painted, and finished by my own hands - no factory, no shortcuts, just a lot of care and a steady brush.

When you order, you’re not picking from a shelf. You’re commissioning a piece made for your hands, your shape, and the look you’ve been picturing.

Customer 01The first order

“I asked for the chrome set as a joke, mostly to support her. They showed up looking better than anything I’ve paid a salon for - and they lasted me two whole weeks.”

My best friend
