Hola + Welcome! I’m glad you are here.
My name is Traci Sheppard. Originally from Canada and moved to Australia for love, I started my personal brand ‘Phoenix and the Ocean’ following the birth of my first son, Phoenix. I adore the coastal lifestyle and everything that encompasses it. As a family, we live for salty days in the sand by the sea. Our days evolve over the years during motherhood, but through it all, nothing makes me feel more relaxed and inspired than the sound of the ocean and the beautiful sight of palm trees. l began this creative journey online, to share my passion for art and design, create a community during motherhood and celebrate our Australian lifestyle by the beach. What started as creating handmade decor from my living room while my baby was napping, evolved in more ways than I initially imagined. Not only do I have a small online store, but I also love creating content photography and video for small and large businesses Australia-wide.
Phoenix and the Ocean has an exclusive range of wall decals, fine art prints and swaddle blankets which are all drawn & designed by me. I hope that my artwork & design inspires you and brings harmony to your spaces for years to come.
Thanks for supporting our dream and reading what we are up to. Check back now and again, as things are always changing as we find new ways to create.
Feel free to leave a comment or contact me here! Thanks for stopping by.
Lots of Love, Trace
