In Spring 2018 through Spring 2019, I had the opportunity to represent the floral designs of Oscar De La Renta. At the time, I thought flowers were beautiful, but it wasn’t until I researched that I realized how amazing flowers and floral designs are. No matter how they are portrayed, no flower is ever the same. This, along with their beauty, is what began my passion for florals. Learning meanings, representations, and the nature of floral color palettes brought my passion home.

Finding and maintaining a work-life balance is not an easy thing to do. For me, it has taken time to figure out my balance. Sometimes I feel like my life is crazy, but then I remember that I have everything planned.

A little look into my life…

Hi! I’m Virginia Seal, and I’m the artist that started Armstrong Art and Design. The name of my studio comes from my middle name, Armstrong, which isn’t seen a lot with artists. Most tend to go with their first and/or last name, but I wanted to be different. I have embraced my middle name my entire life and am so glad that I finally found an avenue to which I can use it everyday. Fun fact: Armstrong is not only my middle name, but also my father’s! Because of this, the name is very special to me.
