Ariel Ferrel

Ariel is an interdisciplinary artist and designer from Martha’s Vineyard, currently living in Maine and abroad. She received her BFA in Graphic Design from Maine College of Art & Design. Before returning to education, she spent time traveling, building a home, working as a floral designer, growing a family, and creating work in a variety of artistic mediums. Her work includes printmaking, textile and fashion design, photography, and illustration. When she’s not busy with art & design, she can be found enjoying the simple and good things with her soulmate, 3 kids, and 2 pets.

Lowther Press had its first incarnation as a cider press building/letterpress printmaking operation under the same name, founded by Ariel’s father, Bruce Lowther, in the 1960s, deep in the forests of Vermont. After losing her father, returning to school to study design, and founding her own design business, Ariel thought it only fitting to carry on her father’s legacy of entrepreneurship, creativity, and multidisciplinary exploration.
