ABOUT OUR COMPANY

Dish and Spoon Productions is an exclusive to-the-trade purveyor of exceptional children’s wall art. Our products include canvas wall hangings, framed creative canvas, unframed lithographs, pint-size prints, and growth charts. Loved by children and parents alike, our sophisticated and whimsical wall art is a welcomed addition to a child’s nursery, bedroom, or family play area!

Each work of art features the exquisite renderings of award-winning artist Janet White. Janet has a formal background in Art and Illustration. Her heart-warming paintings have been showcased in a variety of trade publications, among them Sunset Magazine's popular decorator books, Ideas for Great Baby Rooms.

“Some artists paint because they are inspired by their children,” says Janet. “I don’t have any children. I paint for the child that I was.” Janet grew up with her older brother on an orange farm outside of rural Visalia, California. Recalling her childhood, Janet says, “Neighbors and friends were few and far between. The fields nearby were my playground and cats, dogs, rabbits, squirrels, and birds were my playmates, the likeness of which you see in my artwork today.”

For 15 years, Janet created artwork for children’s rooms, including paintings, murals, hand-painted furniture, and accessories. In 2005, she co-founded Dish and Spoon Productions with Joanne Wiberg, an award-winning business journalist and angel investor turned stay-at-home mom. The duo met when Joanne called Janet with a special decorating project, to create a captivating nursery for Joanne's newborn son. The theme: the nursery rhyme, Hey Diddle, Diddle. The winsome dish and spoon characters would later serve as the company’s name and logo.

In addition to spearheading all marketing and licensing efforts, Joanne oversees the creative direction for Dish and Spoon Productions. “Ideas for our creative designs come largely from my experiences as a mother, watching what touches the hearts and tickles the funny bones of my children,” says Joanne. “I delight in reading picture books with my children, listening to their priceless little giggles, smiling as they splash in puddles on a rainy day or create a masterpiece with sidewalk chalk. Their love of creativity and exploration, sheer wonder and delight about the world, inspire me each day.”

Janet resides in Clayton, California, with her husband Bruce and tuxedo cat, Blackie. Joanne lives in Pleasanton, California, with her husband Erik and three boys: Charles, Oliver, and William. Both Janet and Joanne have a strong commitment to delivering quality products.

Quality is the cornerstone of everything that we do. It is our passion to provide exceptional products and to offer our customers professional service. Our company prides itself on the quality of our creations, all proudly made in the USA. We thank you for your interest in Dish and Spoon Productions and for choosing to offer your customers our unique line of children's artwork.
