New to the shop! Design your own rings and brooches! Instead of making specific designs, I decided to offer the options for you guys to pick your own. You have the 35 different illustrations to chose from. 

They’re made from 1” flat back pins which make the ring extremely durable, picture a 1” pin on your backpack but now stick that on a ring you can wear everyday. The cameo it’s sitting on is made from laser cut wood, I had the cameo designed especially for my shop. 

The ring is set onto of a surgical steel adjustable ring, so it should fit most ring sizes and it won’t irritate your skin. 

This is just the first of hopefully many customizable products i hope to be offering really soon! Keep your eyeballs peeled.

I was deeply saddened over the loss of Maurice Sendak, like most kids I’m sure, “Where The Wild Things Are,” was one of my favorite books growing up. I remember getting it at the library with my first library card, I was always drawn to the books with big, big illustrations. So anyway when the girls at Ten Paces & Draw asked me to illustrate something for a Sendak tribute post, I jumped at the chance to be apart of it. 

I didn’t really sketch it out, I just put the pencil to the paper with a general idea and this is where i landed. I went with the idea of Max but I did a gender swap, much like Natasha Allegri’s gender swapped Adventure Time characters. I just wanted to have a very somber looking Max holding the boat that she comes to the island on.

I’ll be offering prints of this piece eventually because I know a few people on instagram (I’m @dannybrito on there) asked for it. 

Check back tomorrow for some progress photos of this piece! as well as a few other surprises.

The Record Store Baby totes are officially in the shop, this is Sherry of Annie’s Cupboards wearing the tote she bought at Record Store Day. 

I only have a few for the time being so get one while you can. 

“Relics” and “Gems” 5” x 6 1/2” Watercolor and Pencil on Paper mounted onto wood

I did both of these pieces for an upcoming show at Bear and Bird called Starter Art, everything in the show will be $100 or less, perfect for a person just starting an art collection.

Relics was inspired by the tooth drama I had last month, I had to have an extraction and it was a nightmare. Gems is inspired by my obsession with pastel goths right now, teen subcultures in general are insanely vast now, and it’s kind of fascinating. 

I’ll post some detail photos later this afternoon. 

Both pieces will be on display at Bear and Bird May 5th through June 23rd. The opening is May 5th 6-10pm.
