I’m Lindsay Braman, and this is my studio! I’m an artist- trained as a mental health therapist- who makes art about mental health. Some of my stuff is fun and playful (like stickers, comics, and keychains), and some of my art is kinda serious (like translating boring therapy workbooks into activity books or turning mindfulness activities into a game).

From this location, I make art, do boring admin, pay taxes, ship orders from my online shop, and waste a lot of time making weird stuff in the name of art.

Cherokee Street doesn’t quite have the foot traffic – yet – to support retail hours for my extremely niche business! Until it does, you can browse my shop online 24/7 or visit me during the art-focused street fairs (Print Bazaar in December and Common Thread in June).

Yes, probably! This space was previously Kismet Art Center, and before that: a record store, a martial arts studio, a loan office, a hair salon, a church, a youth center, and SO many other things. Do you have a story about it? I’d love to hear it.

If you’ve spent much time in St. Louis’ Cherokee Street neighborhood, you’ve probably seen this building change a lot since I acquired it in 2022! We’ve redone the storefront, walls, floors, and roof (wow, that’s all the sides, isn’t it?!). Most recently, we removed the tenacious yellow paint that greeted folks as they approached Cherokee from Gravois Park. Next on the list is a mural and garden on the parking pad.

The art supply library is in a season of transition. Learn more about the current status and how you can help get it back on the street on artsupplylibrary.com

Join me on Instagram or TikTok for a peek at what I’m working on. You can also find me on Patreon for access to my whole portfolio and to help make this space and my work sustainable.
