tsai-fi: Let me introduce you to the world of tsai-fi. I would describe my artwork as cute with slightly evil twist. I love to create in many different mediums. I draw, paint, sculpt and sew to make my art pieces. My inspirations include anything Japanese, and everyday life issues mixed with fantasy. I spend almost every free moment that one could possibly have in sunny LA on my Mac, my easel and my sewing machine. I love creating new characters and making them come alive. Some of my fave original characters that appear in most of my artwork are from The Smashed Sea or from the world of the Dust Bunnis. Basically, the Smashed Sea is full of a bunch of drunken mermaids and the Dust Bunnis are super cute magnified bits of dust. These characters and other creations inspire my artwork, jewelry, tees, figures and accessories. I collaborate with galleries and boutiques to bring my goods to everyone who digs my style. Some of my original Smashed Sea designs were even available as an exclusive last year at Urban Outfitters.
