2024 has been a year of shifting for me… into a new stage in my career and life’s journey, and becoming more comfortable and confident in my role as an artist and author. There were some hard times, but also much to celebrate and enjoy.

My heartfelt thanks and gratitude to all the people who touch my life in positive ways, from family and friends to colleagues and collectors. I so appreciate your support and encouragement.

I wish you all the best for 2025!

My very best wishes to everyone... the quiet season has begun.

I adore the inward-turning energy that happens for me over the Christmas holidays and throughout the month of January.

It allows for deep rest and reflection, a realignment of my goals and energy. I hope that wherever you are, you find that deep peace, and experience its velvety healing softness❄️

The final days of this year's Holiday Shop...

I had sooo much fun creating this festive shop again this year, and very much enjoyed sharing it with you all.

Of the 24 Mini Cat sculptures I initially cast, there are only 6 left! This makes the editions for the three cats close to half sold out.

I am so thankful for all your positive comments, support and orders.

This year's Holiday Shop will close on New Year's day. Click the link in my bio to visit the shop or subscribe to the Studio Journal where you can receive a more in-depth look into my studio.

Wishing everyone the very best for a beautiful holiday season and a Happy New Year!

I just love how the patina turned out on this copy of Gentle Giant Mini Clyde. This particular sculpture with the brown body and pale grey face and feathered hooves is currently available through @adelecampbellfineart

Pegasus Becoming Free is a profound personal piece for me.

It is such a delight to be able to cast it for collectors who feel it speaks to them as powerfully. I hope you enjoy some of the BTS for the patina process.

I have neglected this lovely fellow and his stone unicorn companion lately. This painting is currently in my storage and I look forward to getting him out to give him some attention. A new set of photos and a check up.

As paintings move through the world, shipped back and forth from studio to exhibition and back again, they are often subjected to bumps and scuffs and worse, heaven forbid!

I have been told that I over-pack my artwork for its voyages, but I would rather err on the side of caution than have a painting return with a hole pierced through the canvas, or a frame that’s been demolished and has to be redone. Bronze is much more durable, but hummingbird bills and sometimes critter ears can break off or bend. Thankfully, if a bronze piece does get damaged during shipping, it can be taken to the foundry to be repaired.

I have some recent photos of Lion Around to share with you…. I love casting sculptures that I haven’t seen in a while.

As my sculpture photography continues to improve with new cameras and more skill, it offers an opportunity to take new better quality pictures before work heads out to collectors.

Voyager: Humpback Whale
Edition of 20

The process of patination on bronze sculpture is not paint that is applied, but a reaction where certain chemicals are brushed or sprayed on while the bronze is hot to alter the surface molecules of the bronze.

The water you see being poured on allows us to see how dark the colour will be once the final protective wax is put on the sculpture. Some patinas, like Cubric (green) can darken significantly, making the outcome somewhat difficult to control. This sequence shows the raw bronze through to the final polished sculpture.

Always, though, it is an absolute delight to see sculptures under-go the patina process!

A day in the life…. Scroll to see a couple of behind the scenes photos of sculpture photography and order fulfillment. It was a busy few days in the studio!

Christmas orders are almost ready to send out. I have a few to gift wrap still and some that are still being cast.

This time of year is always super busy. Here is a shoutout to all creative studios and artists that wear all the hats!

I really can’t believe how delightful the journey of creating these little cat sculptures has been. Sharing their progress with my community of friends and collectors has been so enjoyable, from the pre-casting release to these first finished and specially patinaed sets - thank you so much for your support and enthusiasm.

You can now find all of the separate listings for the mini cat sets in the Holiday Shop on my website (there is a direct link to the shop in my bio)

They are available individually and as sets of two or three.

This is the Cinnamon Points Set, which I just adore! Yesterday I was up at the foundry to patina the rest including a Tuxedo Set which I am super excited to photograph and share. Hopefully tomorrow.

I am working at listing each patina set separately in the Holiday Shop so check to see them there in their full glory. Link is in my bio.

The kitties are here!! I spent the afternoon with the patina artist at the foundry today to do the first patinas on the Mini Cats.

It is always so fun to work out new patinas on sculptures and simply seeing the first castings of pieces is always so exciting.

I have chosen a Cinnamon Points Patina for two of the sets. One set is spoken for and will soon be on its way to a forever home, but the other one will be available in The Holiday Shop very soon!
