Hi, my name is Sand.

I share my dreams, failures, and accomplishments because my story is part of my art—and my art is part of every person who collects it.

 

I was raised in East Los Angeles. I never imagined that sketching dolls with big lashes—lashes inspired by my mother—would one day build a movement. I just knew I wanted to be somebody. I wanted my art to mean something. And over time, those drawings became my voice, my brand, and my career.

 

My journey began in 2010. Since then, I’ve devoted every day to creating—painting murals, designing products, and building a world of Sand Dolls that now lives far beyond my city. I’ve painted across Los Angeles, throughout California, and in Miami, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Guatemala, Chicago, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Kentucky, and New York. Every wall has a story. Every city left a mark on me. And every stroke of paint has brought me closer to the life I dreamed of.

 

My work has been featured on television, in magazines, in galleries, and across countless homes worldwide. Brands have trusted me, collectors have invested in me, and entire communities have embraced the universe I’ve built. I paint for the city, for the hustlers, for the women who refuse to fold, and for the dreamers who still believe they’re meant for more.

 

But nothing about my journey has been comfortable. I’ve had days with no money and nights with no sleep. I’ve experienced heartbreak, silence, loneliness, and hunger. I’ve been in rooms I shouldn’t have survived, but art pulled me through. I’ve walked away from everything that dimmed my creativity and rebuilt myself from scratch more times than I can count.

 

And yet—I’m still here.

Because ambition only grows when life tests you.

 

I’m a woman, but never a weak one. I get up, push through the doubt, silence the noise, and execute. Every struggle is temporary; every comeback is permanent. And every chapter of my life has sharpened me into who I am today: the Doll Maker of Los Angeles.

 

I’ve created worlds, opened doors in cities I never thought I’d see, tasted life in all its flavors, and met people who’ve pushed me toward my next evolution. My curiosity—and my refusal to stay in my comfort zone—built this life. Art saved me, challenged me, fed me, broke me, and rebuilt me. And I’ve held it close through every storm.

 

To everyone who has ever collected my originals, prints, garments, or supported my events—you are the reason I get to live my purpose. To my future collaborators—I can’t wait to create magic with you.

 

Do what you love relentlessly.

Bet on yourself even when no one else will.

Never sit in the “what if.”

And never lose your head behind anything that doesn’t pay you, build you, or move you forward.

 

Gamble on your dream.

Struggle a little.

Wake up.

And rise into the life waiting for you.

 

Stay cold, my friends.
