This is a turnkey creative art studio asset sale located in Southern Utah. The opportunity is best suited for a hands-on owner-operator, creative entrepreneur, event operator, or adjacent business owner who wants to step into an existing studio and mobile-event platform rather than build from scratch.The sale includes a built-out customer-facing studio location, FF&E, art supplies, retail/inventory items, signage, technology, website/social media accounts, seller training, and a mobile-event setup. A wrapped Ford high-roof van is included in the sale, giving a buyer the ability to pursue off-site parties, school events, corporate/team-building events, community events, and private mobile art experiences.The high-roof van is a key part of the growth story. It allows the owner to transport inventory, set up efficiently, and deliver the art experience directly to customers rather than relying only on in-studio traffic. This creates an opportunity to serve corporate events, schools, churches, resorts, community groups, private parties, and regional events throughout Southern Utah.The business has completed its startup-heavy period and has shown improved 2026 revenue momentum, with year-to-date 2026 revenue already exceeding full-year 2025 revenue. The former franchise structure is no longer in place, giving a buyer flexibility to operate independently without ongoing franchise royalty obligations. Seller is relocating and motivated to find the right buyer. Creative transaction structure may be considered for qualified buyers.

This dynamic approach has contributed to an average order value of $1,500 and a 25% repeat purchase rate, with most of the revenue coming from these bespoke paintings. The company has sold over 35,000 paintings to more than 10,000 satisfied customers, with a 4.8-star rating based on over 3,600 reviews. Customers receive photos and videos of their artwork before shipment, allowing them to approve the final piece or request changes.

Around 150 new customer service tickets are handled daily through a structured help desk system, with the team working in shifts to maintain steady response times. Ownership is not buried in daily fulfillment, with total seller involvement around 10 to 20 hours per week. Their role is mainly tied to financial planning, partner relationships, marketing direction, systems, and broader growth decisions.A U.S.-based framing and fulfillment setup is already in progress and is expected to handle up to 75% of orders once fully active. This could reduce shipping costs by about 50% while improving delivery times for a large share of customers.A buyer could also scale influencer and affiliate marketing efforts, which remain largely untapped despite the product's strong visual appeal and high AOV. There is also room to introduce a formal loyalty program, add new upsells such as DIY frames and care kits, improve conversion rates through more structured A/B testing, and build a dedicated B2B strategy for designers, offices, hotels, and commercial buyers. With a scalable backend, minimal overhead, and no long-term vendor commitments, this business is exceptionally well-positioned for continued success.
