Meet The Owner

Carter Owens - Owens' Imprints 
Hi, I’m Carter Owens, the Owner/Operator of Owens’ Imprints.
 
Owens’ Imprints started in July of 2020. I have always been interested and accustomed to using computers to create graphics, whether it was something small, or large, I have always had a creative drive in combination
with a strong work ethic.

I expanded into screen printing in 2020, starting in my basement storage room at home with a jar of ink and a cheap printing press. Fast forward to the current day, all of my screen printing takes place in my garage. Along with Screen Printing and Graphic Design services, I am proud to add Embroidery, Promo Products, and Heat Press to my services.

Owens’ Imprints, as a brand, allows me to share my skills of graphic design and screen printing with the community, both far and wide. I have, and continue to find happiness through the opportunities I am able to take on through this journey.
