She Was Pure Sunshine
Doris June Forsythe January 4, 1931 - April 2, 2015 Over the last month, we had the profound experience of caring for Jamaica's grandmother, Doris June, as she made her transition from this Earth. Cancer went mis/undiagnosed and by the time she received an official diagnosis, it had spread into her lymphatic system and spine...hospice arrived that same day. For 22 days we were able to care for her and tell her how much we love her- although short, we appreciate that time and


A Night-Owl and a Butterfly
It's after midnight and I've had a couple cups of coffee...steady hand don't fail me now.


And Now We Smile for a Bio Pic
We launched just over 2 weeks ago and are already off to a great start! We are refining our marketing/branding materials as we prepare to work with funeral professionals....their feedback on our urns is very positive and encouraging!


After 10 Years, Dad Gets a New Home
Our friend purchased this Bass Fish urn for her father. For many years, they weren't quite sure what to do with his cremains. Once she saw this urn, she knew it was perfect for her dad. We are deeply touched that we were able to create his new memorial, and just love her mother's sweet reaction to receiving it. "Me, My Mom and Dad and his new urn sculpture. Daddy always loved fishing and Billy Bass."


Changing Perceptions
As the popularity of cremation options grow, we want to help to change the notion of the typical urn form. We create works of art that are out-of-the-ordinary and down-to-earth…honest in subject, but discreet in function. They don’t look like an urn. They’re more. They’re more uplifting, more personal, and they’re crafted with more heart.


Introducing our Urn Sculptures
We are excited to launch our newest art endeavor URN SCULPTURES. "Memorial Art for Unique Personalities" -- We are now in production of 6 models, with new ideas on the way! With the release of our cremation sculptures, we would like "service-to-others" to be foremost on our minds, intentions and actions. The holidays often have us reflecting on the memories of loved ones, and the fond times we had with family and friends who have gone before us. We feel it is a great hon


Here's a Sneak Peek
We have been doing, and figuring, and sculpting, and molding, and building, and cleaning, and painting, and photographing, and naming, and designing, and branding, all while trying to keep our cool...soooo, prepare yourself for a bombardment of shameless self-promotion with the launch of our newest artistic endeavor...soon, very soon...we know you wait with bated breath. ;)


It's Some Serious Work Indeed
Making model sculptures is fun....making plaster molds is stressful....pouring slip-casts is heavy work...and waiting for clay greenware to dry feels excruciatingly slow. It is definitely a process figuring out these prototypes, and we are anxious to have successful kiln fires. Now, we look forward to working out our presentation of the finished products!


CAUTION: Stressed-Out Artists at Work
Creative career hopes are placed inside this box- along with 5 other sculptures we are making as prototype models. Here we go taking another leap of faith....when chasing what you want, being overwhelmed is a good thing, right?!
