Paper Totem! - Shin Tanaka

Paper Totem! has kicked off! This new paper custom project will bring you designs by artists from around the world, each designing their own piece of totem for you to collect + build + stack ^__^

Together these multi-coloured mascots will make one giant paper totem. Totems support larger groups than the individual. Each animal or spirit carved on the pole represents a distinctive meaning or style. Combined, the different elements strengthen each other forming a larger artwork.

The first carved customs to start of your own Paper Totem! are by none other than Shin Tanaka. Shin is famous for his highly recognizable graffiti inspired paper art. For Paper Totem! he has designed three funky pieces!

Cloudy Skies, Rocky Rainbows

Summer's here so time for some funky badges! Which type of weather it 'll be is up to you ^__^ You can choose between rocky rainbows or cloudy skies...

They're now available in my bigcartel shop. What? Bigcartel you say? Yes yes besides my etsy shop for plush I have now opened a bigcartel shop for small goodies like badges and paper toys.

There's lots of new stuff happening at the Dolly Oblong "factory" at the moment :) More coming soon!

Plush You!

Yaaaaaaay I have been accepted to participate in this year's Plush You show ^__^ So excited!

The show opens the 9th of Octobre, so quite some time left to sketch out some new plush designs :)

Seattle here I come!

Smasher!

Sooo some time ago I received a message by the editor of the Portuguese magazine Smash! if I was interested in teaming up with them for an exclusive Smash! paper toy design for their first issue. The result? Smasher! A big-mouthed feisty but friendly green little creature ^__^


So for all the Portuguese people out there, Smash! is now in stores! So buy one, or three...and build a totem ;)

PS No my copy of the mag didn't arrive wrinkly it's just the background of the template :D
