Liz Morris
After over a decade of experience in marketing and media management, I decided to pursue my dream of being an artpreneur and created Peppermint Rose Productions - a boutique studio offering my original art and stories. I love creating whimsical miniatures and figurines, always with a sprinkle of magic. I also offer freelance services in graphic design, illustration and custom miniatures.
