Artist based in Kansas City, MO. Been doing art most of my life & then took a hiatus & back at it for a few years after something sparked & bought a new sketchbook & filled it quick! Haven't looked back since. Was raised in a house with a father as an artist & my mom was a potter . So I grew up in & around art, art shows, etc. Cartooning was my favorite in my younger days, worked as a caricature artist, airbrushed tees,hats,rags, etc., also worked for 2 years as a professional potter's apprentice (no not my mom, lol). Did my first custom toy 2 years ago & have done several since & really love the community, I have come across some great collectors & artists online! Platforms customized munnyworld characters, Labbit, Toyer, & a Gargoylz (sp?). Also enjoy doing digital illustration, ink, marker & sculpting. And am always willing to work out a trade art for art so let me know =] Self-produced art toys are designer collectibles created and manufactured independently by the artist or small teams without the backing of a large toy company or mass-market brand. These toys are often highly personal, artistic expressions and are usually made in limited runs. Key Characteristics include independent creation where the artist is in control of the entire process from concept, sculpting, and painting to production and packaging. These are usually made in small batches, often 10–100 pieces, which adds to their rarity, made using materials like resin, sofubi (Japanese soft vinyl), or 3D-printed components.
