Why We Create

We create because art is how we speak to the world when words fall short. It’s how we process truth, honor culture, reclaim joy, and connect with others on a deeper level.

At Art Collective International, each piece we make—whether hand-crafted or digitally designed—is a reflection of who we are and what we believe in: beauty with meaning, creativity with purpose, and stories that deserve to be seen and felt.

We don’t just make art to be seen—we make it to resonate, to connect, and to endure.

Lee Hansheng Studios

Where the heart of personal mythology, nature, and cultural memory—woven into fine art, illustration, and mixed media. Melding Asian and Western influences, Hansheng’s work explores the quiet power of landscapes, the resilience of identity, and the timeless presence of art in everyday life. From celestial dreamscapes to temple ruins and political resistance, each piece invites viewers into a world that is deeply felt, richly layered, and unapologetically human.

Storm Garden Studio

Blending the raw power of nature with tranquil beauty, creating artwork that captures the balance between chaos and calm. From mixed media to digital illustration, each piece explores themes of transformation, weather, growth, and the natural form. Inspired by atmospheric energy, human anatomy, Art Nouveau, and sustainable practices, Storm Garden Studio is a haven for the wild-hearted and earth-rooted—where every storm feeds the garden.

💫 Our Story, Our Soul

Art Collective International was founded by artists who believe that creativity is more than a skill—it’s a way of life, a form of resistance, and a bridge between cultures.

We are a queer-owned, artist-run collective made up of four studios, each bringing their own voice, vision, and heritage into the work. From handmade jewelry to fine art prints, wearable design to soul-stirring originals, everything we create is rooted in intention, equity, and sustainability.

We price our work fairly to keep art accessible, honor the craft, and support the artists who make it. Because to us, art isn't just something you hang on a wall—it's something you live with. Something that resonates.

Thank you for being here. We’re honored to create with you, for you, and alongside a world that still believes in beauty with meaning.

Behind the Art: Our Process

Every piece we offer—whether it's a hand-poured resin pendant, a vibrant fine art print, a custom illustration, or a piece of wearable art—is created with care, purpose, and deep attention to detail.

Our products span across handcrafted and print-on-demand items, including original paintings, jewelry, tote bags, apparel, and more. Handmade items are lovingly produced in small batches in our studios, using high-quality, ethically sourced materials. Our print-on-demand collections are designed in-house and printed through trusted partners who prioritize sustainability and quality.

We don’t mass produce. Every design starts with a spark of inspiration and goes through a process of sketching, refining, and soul-led creation. Whether you're wearing it, hanging it, or gifting it—you’re getting more than just a product.

You're getting a piece of our story, and now it becomes part of yours.

This isn’t fast fashion. It’s slow art, wearable expression, and intentional design.
From original works to our print-on-demand collections, everything we offer is rooted in story, culture, and care—crafted by working artists who believe in sustainability, connection, and purpose over profit.

You’re not just buying art. You’re investing in legacy.

🐾 Giving Back with Heart

At Art Collective International, we believe that creativity should serve a greater good. That’s why part of our mission is to give back—to our communities, our planet, and those who often go unseen.

We’re proud to support Adopt Eve’s Dogs, a small but deeply dedicated rescue helping dogs in need find loving homes. Through select art sales and special campaigns, a portion of our proceeds goes directly toward supporting their veterinary costs, supplies, and care.

Because to us, art isn't just about what we create—it's about the impact we make together. When you support ACI, you're not only uplifting artists, you're helping build a world that’s more compassionate, more connected, and more kind.

Collective Reviews

E. Gaskins

Chris Foster's work is adorable and will fit just about anywhere! Great for gifts. I've worked with Hansheng as well and all around it has been a wonderful experience, he also offers a lot of beautiful artwork in a variety of medias and products.

L. Martin

I've ordered a handful of different items from ACI and every time I've been so happy with the quality and uniqueness of the products. There truly is something to fit every vibe while being fresh with that artisanal touch. I get compliments and questions all the time about my cute strawberry t-shirt or goldfish mouse pad I'm also obsessed with the mini paintings. Sellers are communicative and helpful. If you're looking for something eye-catching for the home, work, or to wear, I can't recommend ACI enough!

V. Kapral

I love everything I have ever received from ACI! I could spend hours browsing all the unique gifts, every day items, apparel, and hand crafted artwork on their website. I wish I could get one of each! I've gotten hand towels, a baby blanket and hat, and a gorgeous mini painting so far. People ask me all the time where I've purchased these items and I'm happy to tell them. Each artist has a unique vibe that shines through their work. If you're looking for one of a kind pieces of art, whether for functional purposes or just to brighten and beautify your space, you will find everything you need at ACI. Highly recommend exploring all they have to offer!!
