	Hello! I'm Sasha, the owner and founder of Sunshadeau Arts. Sunshadeau Arts was born from a combination of my lifelong love of tabletop gaming, my 10+ years of professional art and design experience, and my disability. Bet you didn't see that last bit coming. I mean who becomes disabled and then copes by starting a business? Well, I did! Over two years ago I was diagnosed with 2 degenerative spinal conditions. That coupled with a car accident, left me with limited use of my right arm and hand. Since holding a paint brush was now a challenging experience, I looked to other ways to create. I discovered pouring acrylic and fell in love with the randomness of the process, that there is only so much you can do to control the creation and that each piece is completely unique. So what about the gaming part? Well, while some families played/watched the sports ball together, my family played Dungeons and Dragons. I remember my dad letting me roll dice for the monsters when I was too little to play myself and I would sit and draw dragons at the gaming table. As the kids grew up and moved away, that part of my life faded even though I always kept a love of table top gaming. Fast forward to 3 years ago and my brother texts me and tells me I have to check out this new show called Critical Role. Thanks to the show and the advent of internet TTRPG platforms, we were inspired to strike up the game again. Today, I play with friends and family across the country twice a week. I decided to combine my love of TTRPG's, pouring art, and design together to create unique, one of a kind artistic gaming gear for other gaming nerds and art lovers like me. I hope you enjoy my creations and thank you so much for your support!
