Welcome.
I'm the Orchard.
Well, at least one of them. I'm Liza Orchard. Born in Texarkana (on the Texas side) to a pecan baroness and a former Ad Man from New York City who deemed himself "Pecan Joe". Yes, my Dad had high hopes of running the family pecan farm and his ultra-kitsch souvenir store empire. With little success, we packed our things and moved to Dallas. I think that was a good thing.
The Past
For the last five decades, I've birthed the "Non-Dairy Cow," the Zima Personality Test, and other wacky ideas for ad agencies, their corporate clients, and my own in NYC, Dallas, LA, and Mexico City. And since the internet, all over the place. Honestly, selling my creative soul isn't so bad. In fact, it was pretty darn fun.
The Present
After years of "thinking about it," I've taken a step back from the ad world, escaped to the mountains, and delved into my other creative passion. Having started with soft pastels, I am continuing to explore, learning new skills, and creating a body of work. It may not be the perfect body, but I am having a blast.
