Our Story

The way a warm cup of coffee feels in your hands. How it seems to almost slow down time for a minute, or the way the sunbeams bounce off the walls and over your skin, allowing the sun to warm your face while you work on a new print. That extra second you spend in bed on a rainy day, pulling the blanket up to your nose as the rain pats on your window, as if to say, “good morning.” Watering a plant and watching the soil drink up the water, inspecting each leaf, noticing the new markings and new growth that tell the story of its life.

Slow Sunday was born over cups of coffee, quiet days tending our plants, and getting lost in a new drawing or in the hours spent carving away at our art pieces. It started as a desire to capture these intentional moments, even when you might only have 5 minutes to spare waiting for your next bus, or for the barista to call your name in a coffee shop.

Slow down - take it in, even if only for a moment.

We’re so glad you’re here.

The Artists

Growing up on the east coast, Amber spent most of her time exploring the dense forests and sandy coastlines of New Brunswick, favouring exploration just after a rain storm. She often collected rocks, shells and other interesting treasures while spending time with the small creatures and wondering about the little lives they carried.

She carries that love for exploration and small wonders through her everyday life finding inspiration in the little details.

Amber has years of experience in the print industry, specifically in large format. Her art speaks to both her organic inspirations and her admiration for the illustrative world she works in.

Ann has always felt the dichotomous pull of life with having grown up with a strong love for both the sciences and the arts.

The balance she has found was to be both a practicing hospital pharmacist during the day and to fulfill the creative side of her through at least one outlet - be it writing music, modern cake decorating, or the artwork of Slow Sunday. She is also an avid houseplant collector with her collection consisting mainly of uncommon aroids.

Ann mostly works with lino, and her artwork is inspired heavily by her botanical surroundings and still mornings.
