CREDITS
This website is built using wix.com's fabulous editor - although this is almost entirely built from scratch, so to speak, by me, S. Sweeney. I prefer to build off of their "blank page" option, but, they do have plenty of wonderful preset pages for those of you out on your own business endeavor!

The font used for the titles is "Impact" and the bulk of the text (this font!) is Helvetica Light.

Aside from the aforementioned credits, I would also love to take the time to shout out some INCREDIBLE people who deserve the credit for getting me where I am today. These people have continued to encourage me and push me to grow, invested in my business and/or bought art from me when I was still very uncertain of my journey. They saw a successful artist in me when I couldn't quite see it myself, and for them, I am eternally grateful.
​
First, I would love to give my parents credit - My dad has definitely invested into my art business and has helped me grow my art studio space with both equipment and supplies, and has continued to push me to pursue my art as a career. My momma has always encouraged me from day one to keep doing art, even going so far as to find people who wanted to commission me, and both her and my dad, and my step dad, have all been so kind and loving and supportive on my crazy art journey. All three of them have helped me see the potential in myself and supported me, and they all deserve the world.
​
I would also love to give both of my siblings some credit as well! My sister and my brother have both been very supportive of my creative side and have always encouraged me to go and take the chance and do the thing, haha. The three of us have been through a lot, but the bond has only made us stronger, and I am so grateful for both of these wonderful, resilient, supportive human beings that I call family.
​
Additionally, I would love to give credit to some of my most wonderful friends; these people have always been supportive of my art and my choices, even if it does seem crazy to drop everything, move a thousand miles away, and start an art business w/ no college degree, these people have had my back since we met and I couldn't be more grateful. My childhood best friends, both Laura and Diana, my middle school bestie Melanie, my highschool besties, Ashley, Nicki, Darius, Matt, Abbey, and my found family/friends, Trisha, Clara, Jen, and so many many more! I adore these people, they have given me so much strength and belief in myself that I didn't know was there. They've been with me through the good and the bad, the ugly and the beautiful, and I love them.
​
I have so many more people I want to mention, and quite a few I would like to mention specifically but would like to maintain their privacy.
​
I would also like to give this moment to thank EVERYONE who has been apart of my journey to create this business, to everyone who has made a purchase, a preorder, or even just donated to me or got art from me for a petite, etc. etc. - you guys ROCK and I would not be sitting here typing this up today if not for all of you wonderful, beautiful, kind people.
​
Sweeney's Studios LLC may be a one-woman business, but this business was built with the help of so very many important human beings that may not have even known they were helping, they just did it to support me and that alone has been the backing of my business.
