Meet the Artists & Join Us!
Own Your Pride is currently seeking to partner with artists, particularly LGBTQIA+ artists, to expand the products offered on all of our online platforms!
Owner
Aaron Schekorra
Aaron (he/him) is the founder and owner of Own Your Pride, so if it isn't tagged for another artist, he probably made it! Aaron founded Own Your Pride to put pride-related art and the profits from it back into the hands of the LGBTQ+ community.
Petyr "Peewee" Cruikshanks
Peewee (he/him) is a queer Haudenosaunee man, as well as a mixed media artist & writer. Heavily influenced by early 00's pop culture aesthetics and cartoon whimsy, he aims to share his perspective on the silly, serious, and surreal aspects of life with his art. However, since partnering, Aaron & Petyr have opened a new business focusing completely on Peewee's art!
Beth Rollow
Beth (she/her) is the only ally member of our design team. As a teacher and mental health advocate in the DFW-area of Texas, we felt that it was important to include her art. Beth's designs focus on themes on mental health, destigmatization, and her love of the outdoors.
K.W.
K.W. (he/him) wishes to remain anonymous, but we wanted to recognize his work! K.W. has designed much of our seasonal artwork and designs that celebrate LGBTQ+ pop culture!
Daniel Schekorra
Daniel (he/him) contributed a few designs to Own Your Pride early on. His digital artwork focuses on common sense political action and his love of animals!
