If you’ve followed my work for a while, you’ve likely seen bold sled wraps climbing mountain faces, custom race graphics flying across the snow, or vibrant logos on local businesses and events. But I often hear the same questions about what I actually do and how my business works. So let’s clear a few things up.
Do you print the wraps yourself?
No — and that’s by design. Artwork by Sierra Winter focuses on digital design. I create the artwork, layout, branding, and visual concepts. Then I partner with some of the top print companies in the industry to professionally produce and ship your wrap or graphics.
Current wrap partners include:
ArcticFX & UTVFX Graphics
DeviantInk
Octane Ink
SCS Unlimited
139 Designs
M7 Design Co
Decal Doctors
Digital Steeze
Skyline Signs
For swag and merchandise, I work with:
Eight Fifty Co
The Shirt Lady
Walden Bros
For smaller print projects — business cards, banners, stickers, and promotional materials — I work with trusted print partners that best fit the project. This model allows me to focus 100% on creative excellence while ensuring your product is printed by specialists who do that every single day.
What kinds of things do you design?
Almost anything that needs bold, intentional visual identity.I design wraps and graphics for snowmobiles, dirt bikes, UTVs/ATVs, jet skis, boats, aircraft, coolers, and more. I also create business logos, sticker designs, merchandise graphics, and branded swag. And no — I don’t just design cartoon characters. While I love creating mascots and illustrated concepts, I also design race-ready performance layouts, clean and simple modern graphics, loud high-energy designs, professional business branding, and sponsor-forward competition wraps.
Are full wraps the only option?
Not at all. Partial wraps and vinyl kits are absolutely available. You do not need to commit to full coverage to work with me. Whether you want just side panels, tunnel graphics, a hood kit, or accent pieces, we can build a design that fits your goals and budget. I also offer pre-designed wraps on my website. These can be customized with your colors and logos without paying a full custom design fee — a great option if you want something sharp but more budget-friendly.
Why do you charge a design fee?
Because custom design is skilled creative work.
I collect a deposit before design work begins, and every project includes three drafts to refine and fine-tune your vision into reality. That process takes time, strategy, and technical precision — especially when designing for machines that require exact fitment.
Here’s the good news: my print partners honor lower print fees on my projects. So while there is a design fee, the overall project cost remains competitive and often balances out in your favor.
Do you offer discounts?
Yes — when it makes sense. I honor discounts for non-profits, clubs, and organizations I believe in. Supporting the community is important to me, and I do my best to make projects work when the mission aligns. If you have a friend or family member with a promo code for one of my print partners, I can use that at checkout so everyone benefits. And once you’ve worked with me, you’ll always receive a Repeat Rider discount on future projects.
Do you reuse designs?
Short answer: no two custom wraps are ever exactly the same.
I do not duplicate custom designs. While I may recycle certain elements or techniques, every client receives a unique layout built specifically for them. Your machine — and your brand — deserve individuality.
Are you trusted in the industry?
I’m grateful to say yes. I’ve completed projects with Hatcher Pass Polaris, Iron Dog, Alaska Safe Riders, Team CC Ski-Doo, Delta Powersports, Hilltop Ski Area, Oxbow, and many more. I’ve built strong relationships within the winter sports and powersports community because I take pride in professionalism, communication, and delivering on promises.
