Renegade Brooklyn

Cutesy but not Cutesy had a few big weekends in a row with Collingswood Mayfair, Art Star Craft Bazaar, and Renegade Brooklyn. All were a great success! We had a wonderful time meeting our fellow neighbor vendors, other artists, shoppers, browsers, etc! It was great to see many familiar faces from past years and past shows and with the help of some really wonderful friends the shows will go down as very memorable ones! Below are some pictures of Renegade Brooklyn and once I get my hands on the ones from Art Star and Collingswood I will be sure to post those, as well!





We're restocking inventory and gearing up for our next big show in Manayunk, PA. In the mean time you can check out some wonderful write-ups from previous shows at Inhabitots and Nerdabout New York. Stay tuned for more upcoming show info and photos!

The American Dream - I am not your toy.

I have been feverishly building up inventory for more upcoming shows, but in the mean time I took a break to create a piece for a gallery submission upcoming in July. The theme is emotion... This was my first attempt at joining two monsters with one antler... and it sure was quite the challenge! This piece is 33" tall and 29" wide and is titled "The American Dream".

Cutesy but not Cutesy featured on Etsy!

Cutesy but not Cutesy - A work in progress

Hello all! A quick update from Cutesy but not Cutesy... we have been hard at work scheduling and applying for spring, summer, and now fall shows. We are happy to announce we will be participating in this year's Renegade Brooklyn, Art Star Craft Bazaar, Philadelphia, Cherry Hill Art Blooms Festival, and Collingswood Mayfair. We've also been accepted to participate in this year's Plush You at the Schmancy Gallery in Seattle, WA. Stay tuned for more announcements in the near future!

In the meantime, I have been asked to take some process photos of myself at work for some shows that I have applied for. Fortunately for me, my process and materials are fairly simple to photograph!

Updates from Cutesy but not Cutesy

I have been working on building up the monster inventory for a busy spring/summer schedule of craft shows. But in the mean time I have finally created some fellas based on my logo/mascot! They are members of the Little Ones, a group of monsters that pop up anywhere they think fun and chaos is needed! Keep an eyes out for Little Ones where ever you go, they tend to pop up where you least expect it...
