About Creepy Orca
Hey there! I'm Ariel, a designer and illustrator hailing from Richmond, Virginia, and the proud owner of Creepy Orca Supply Company. This little venture of mine is more than just a business; it's my sanctuary for channeling dreams, anxieties, and a good dose of existential dread into something tangible. My art dives into themes like feminism, anti-capitalism, LGBTQ Pride, and religious trauma, but the common thread weaving it all together is humor. There's nothing quite like seeing customers in-person, chuckling as they explore my work—it's the best reward for what I do.

The Origin
What started as a series of iPad doodles to pass the time during the pandemic quickly evolved into Ariel's passion project. Creepy Orca became the outlet for her creative expressions of humor, blending the dark with the amusing. Our brand is a tribute to the oddities of life, encouraging everyone to laugh along with us.

The Mission
At Creepy Orca, our mission is straightforward: to make people laugh. In a landscape that sometimes feels overwhelmingly gloomy, our stickers, pins, patches, and T-shirts serve as reminders not to take life too seriously. Each product is crafted with a dose of whimsy and a pinch of dark humor, designed to bring a smile to your face.

The Dream
For Ariel, Creepy Orca is more than just a business—it's a calling. Her dream is to see Creepy Orca grow, reaching more people and spreading laughter far and wide. Every design, every product, and every post is a step towards making that dream a reality, with the ultimate goal of turning Creepy Orca into a full-time pursuit of joy.
