While Ashley worked as a procurement manager prior to setting up Pink Picasso. The couple have two other paint by numbers businesses- Modern Monet and Wear Your Sole. The duo came up with the idea of launching a paint by numbers kits business when Ashley was looking for ways to fill up the blank white wall in their apartment. This led to a brainstorming session and soon Pink Picasso was born in 2019.
On the brand's website the couple wrote, "We love to create and feel strongly about bringing you our best work with authenticity. We love our family, photography, and our story.
Bravery brought us here.... and a great deal of love. "

A customer left the following review on the brand's website, "I ordered the Perfect Petal for my 90 yr old mother w/ dementia as “art therapy”. She likes flowers in pink & red. She’s going to give her master piece to my sister-in-law who she lives with. I think she enjoyed coloring different shades of pinks which probably is not as daunting as multi-color prints."
Where is Pink Picasso now?
In July 2021, the brand launched their Mid Century Modern Collection. "Our latest labor of love is almost here! We're launching the Mid Century Modern Collection next week and WE.CANT.WAIT. Seriously, y'all these kits were SO MUCH FUN to paint. They're 8x10 and have less intricate number maps than our usual kits, so finishing them is a breeze.

Who will steal the deal?
Lori Greiner or Daniel Lubetzky might close the deal. Although the brand's sales numbers and profit margins will ultimately be the major deciding factor for the sharks on whether to invest in the business or not. So, we will just have to wait and watch to see if the Sharks even make a deal.
