The Artists we support...
WILLOW TREE by Susan Lordi
Susan is an American artist who has been designing these meaningful figurines for 20 years.
Willow Tree® is an intimate line of figurative sculptures that speak in quiet ways to heal, comfort, protect and inspire. Artist Susan Lordi hand carves the original of each figure from her studio in Kansas City Missouri. Pieces are cast from her original carvings, and individually painted by hand.
Expression is revealed through gestures only… a tilt of the head, placement of the hands, a turn of the body. The simplicity of form and absence of facial features signify Willow Tree. It is Susan’s hope that these pieces be meaningful to both giver and receiver.
JIM SHORE and HEARTWOOD CREEK by Jim Shore
Jim Shore is from South Carolina and 2022 marks 20 years of creative genius. His figurines are designed in the United States of America by this folk artist.
The figurines are made from sculpted stone resin. These moulded items are hand painted by skilled artisans. They are made to resemble the look and feel of real hand carved wood.
His creations are made even more unique by adding intricate quilting motifs to each figurine to match with the theme. He learned about the art of quilting from his Grandmother.
Jim is in partnership with well known brands/licences like:
Disney, Peanuts and Dr Suess.
BRITTO by Romero Britto
Romero Britto is a Brazilian pop artist, painter, and sculptor.
He combines cubism, pop art and graffiti painting using vibrant colours and bold patterns in his work.
Romero Britto, the founder of the Happy Art Movement has created a visual language of love, hope and happiness that inspires millions worldwide.
Self-taught at an early age, Britto painted on scraps of paper or cardboard or any medium he could find before coming into his own and traveling to Paris where he was introduced to the works of Matisse and Picasso. His appreciation of these masters influenced him to create an iconic style that The New York Times described, “exudes warmth, optimism and love”.
