SO many fun, one-of-a-kind pieces are coming to the shop to kick off spring! Dreamy pastels, floral explosions, woodland critters emerging from hibernation to frolic through technicolor meadows… hope and curiosity are flooding my system and awakening my magic.

We’re starting off strong with this candy-colored rabbit, officially ready for adoption—a true celebration of the spring season. A hard launch in a soft package… give a warm welcome to Blue the Bunny.

He’s an instant classic, so eat your heart out, Easter Bunny. This 10.5-inch-tall bodacious bunny is ready to make a statement in a space as unique as he is.

I collected all things bunny when I was little, and I even had two pet rabbits that turned out to be gay like me (Lola and Baxter were actually Leo and Baxter—and they did what bunnies do, hehe). I’ve always had an affinity for these toothy, fluffy little creatures, so it feels especially fitting that, as the sunshine peeks out and the birds start singing, a pastel rabbit gets to embody this tender, glowing shift in season.

I’ve been a bit quiet this past month, and I feel like I’m also coming out of hibernation. I’m ready to hop to new heights as an artist and explore the world with a renewed sense of childlike wonder. Every piece teaches me something new and becomes part of the whimsical dreamscape—the mysterious lore of the magical world inside my head.

I have big plans for my business and no shortage of ambitious ideas to bring to life. I hope you’ll embark on this journey with me and enjoy the chaotic, vibrant process of falling in love with your craft.

Cheers to the precious transition from budding to blossoming that we all find ourselves in.

I still have so much work ahead of me, but for the first time in my life, I know with certainty that I’ve found the craft that makes work feel like joyful play. And no amount of material success or external validation compares to the raw elation I feel when I’m quite literally building my dream world—one sculpture at a time.

Okay… mushy, ranty update over!

I upcycled an ugly ceramic owl I've had since highschool as the armature and handsculpted this with paperclay. Then painted with acryclic and gold leaf ink, and also added some texture with colored pencils which I've really enjoyed adding to my work these days.
