Hi, I'm Mari Elaine Lamp, the face behind Moth to Flame!As an artist, I understand what it means to forge your own path. I know the craziness of keeping all the plates spinning, and how sometimes it's hard to come up for air.My passions include painting, curating, and enjoying all the flower gardens on my block of Germantown, Philadelphia.
Ready to talk?
The first step is to book a no-obligation phone call in which I'll learn more about your venture and what you need help with. I will share my best pricing estimates and we can determine if a consultation meeting makes sense.Then, we can meet up in person in the Philadelphia area or virtually (I take clients from anywhere!) for a deeper dive into the details. I will then provide you with a project proposal that goes over scope, pricing, timeframe, and payment details.
