This is the first printed hoodie with one of my designs.
We decided to using a Canadian print company, Rain Coast Print and Digital, to print all of my designs.
We value supporting family owned local and Canadian businesses because that is what we are.
When you buy from our small business you are not supporting a CEO to purchase a third vacation home, instead you are helping pay for a little girls ballet lessons; a teenage son's last year of high school and swim club; our ability to put food on our table and pay our mortgage.
For years I felt dedicated and accomplished with my career, however something was missing.
I lacked passion and it began to trickle into my family life. I was spending too much time unhappy with work and never really enjoying my life.
In November 2018, I felt so unhappy and deflated, I quit my job.
I did not know what I was going to do but I had to figure out something as I still had the responsibilities of providing for my family.
With the support of family, I dug out all of my buried art supplies from the basement.
I reached out to a couple of friends and started creating small commissions of character creations and layout designs. As I created works of art for clients, I was able to begin the process of putting 'Tales of WOR' to paper.
Through this journey, I realized I had a couple of passions.
The first is to create and publish my graphic novel series: WOR. The second is to create this website, Alberta by Gaslight clothing designs. These designs are funny/thought-provoking/sarcastic/brilliant/'add your complimentary adjective here' designs, printed on great fitting clothing. Thanks for reading about my journey, laughing at the witty designs and supporting our family business!
