wearable art loves it,” said Velia. “The fit and feel of the material 

is great and I think it energizes the wearer. You can wear leggings 

one day to the gym to work out and the next week you can put a 

nice top and jacket with it for a night out and have a completely 

different look. They also pack so well for the traveler.” 

Wearable art has been an exciting new venture for Velia and 

she has plans to expand her line. “I was not expecting to have 

men requesting wearable art, but they are. I am working on a 

few items to incorporate a men’s line soon and hope to be able 

to introduce those in the next few months”, she described. “I 

am also in the process of putting together my catalog to bring 

to small boutiques, spas and resorts. My goal is to have a 

manufacturer swoop in and love my colors, styles and designs 

and invest in this new passion so I can keep creating on both 

sides, with artwork and wearable art.” A girl can dream....and 

Velia always dreams big.

Wearable art is available at Retail Therapy but you can also 

buy everything online.

Velia’s inspiration has taken 

her art off of the canvas and 

onto the body with her exquisite 

wearable art and accessories.
