I'm a floral-inspired nerd born and raised in the PNW! I create functional fan merch that you can proudly use around your home and share your love of your favorite fandom. While the (usually) human characters are the highlight, I tend to give a little more love to the mascots and nature themes behind them. I hope my creations bring as much light into your home as they do mine.

Taiga here! I'm a native Pacific Northwest artist inspired by the nostalgia of beloved characters from my childhood as well as my personal experiences as an Asian American. You'll find many beloved video games and animations brought to life in my cute and soft style as well as a peek into simple but memorable moments through my mischievous tiger character. Just as I have grown to lean on my creations to offset the stress from everyday life, I hope they too can also be a source of respite and joy for everyone else. I look forward to seeing you all soon!

Featured Artists: Silent by Design

Hello everyone, my name is Gabriel Uriarte. I’m an artist, Spanish interpreter, and content creator, and I’m excited to share my creative work with you.

My art focuses on two distinct but complementary mediums: miniature painting and laser engraving—and in some cases, I combine both techniques in a single piece. Yes, it’s possible to laser engrave tabletop miniatures, allowing for intricate designs on shields, banners, and even tiny tattoos on figures no more than an inch tall.

I began painting miniatures in 2020, during the pandemic, and what started as a casual hobby quickly grew into a passionate and rewarding artistic pursuit. Over time, I expanded into 3D printing, sourcing digital models to bring to life with paint. Today, I hold several commercial-use licenses for original 3D models, which allow me to sell finished pieces. I’m currently working toward learning 3D design myself, with the goal of creating and producing my own original figures.

In addition to my miniature work, I also offer laser engraving services. Beyond miniatures, this includes fully customized keychains, stone coasters, dog tags, and more—each one tailored with your own photos, logos, or messages.

I’m always open to new ideas, so if you have a project in mind, feel free to ask!
