About Us

Artichoke Apparel, Tatonka, and Lick the Plate began with a love
of artichokes, food, marketing, and storytelling. Looking for a way
to utilize my extensive marketing, sales, event planning, writing and
public relations skills, Artichoke Creative was founded in 2004 as a
full service ad agency headquartered in Encinitas, California, a
small beach community about 30 miles North of San Diego.

As a thank you to our clients, we created Artichoke Creative shirts,
with our logo printed on really comfortable and fashionable
American Apparel. We gave the shirts to clients, prospects, friends, and the response was always the same,
“this is my favorite shirt” or “I love my artichoke shirt, where can I buy one?”

With the help of my Art Director Marcia and son Quinn, we first developed the Artichoke Apparel brand, and
in 2011 started our popular Tatonka line of shirts (buffalo is another love of ours) and Lick the Plate tees,
based on my food column in The Coast News. If you fancy artichokes, Tatonka, or simply licking the plate,
you may find our shirts perfectly suited to your lifestyle.
