Why am I called Soap? Glad you asked!!

My first name may be Sophia, but ever since an accidental slip of the tongue by an old friend in 7th grade, I have made it my mission to make SOAP the alias I have in the art world.

All I have ever wanted to be is a full-time artist. Since I made my first book in the 1st grade, I have dreamed of a publishing company of my own. If it is just me at the beginning, so be it-telling stories, visualizing characters and personalities; my purpose has always felt connected to being a storyteller. As an artist, my mission with every client is to add the most color, life, enthusiasm and spirit to your ideas.

Thank you for visiting my site, and I hope to work with you soon. 

Warm regards,

-Sophia (SOAP) Asbury.
