About.

Nestled in a cozy loft in Richmond, Virginia, Elyssa Duran LLC. opened its virtual doors in 2023. What once started as a dream for creating art has turned into a branding business helping businesses and individuals achieve their branding goals. Though the weird and wackiness of Elyssa's art is hidden under a chic blanket, her weird and wacky art style can still be found throughout her home and in her fashion style.

After leaving the corporate life, Elyssa remained determined to find her own way. Navigating the fragility of business ownership and everyday life has been a rewarding and challenging experience for Elyssa. Through it all, she maintains her focus and strives to be the best she can be for herself and her clients.

About Us
Meet Elyssa
Philosophy
Yes & No

Hello! Elyssa here. Since childhood, I have been creating, studying, and putting the right puzzle pieces in place to open my creative business.I didn't want to leave a super profesh headshot of me so instead, I'm sharing photos that showcase my personality and the things I love.

If I'm not buried in my computer working with a client, you can find me at the beach, traveling, or finding a new place to eat. RVA has some of the best food in Virginia and I encourage you to come on down and take a look for yourself!

My goal is to continue to grow and network with other creatives. In the next three to five years you may see me living out my dream of moving to Japan, so be sure to follow me on Instagram to watch my journey.
