I have a new friend, until he goes to his very special new home. He’s a clay character commission (inspired by this painting) that I had to share with you because I love him so. It’s been fun working in 3D for a few days. You know, you’ve got to mix it up sometimes in the creative world.

I wish I could put him to work. He’d make a lovely co-worker.

I also made little Hughey, who will be available in the shop at 2:30 pm PST today. There are these brief moments when I realize that I get to make a living creating this cuteness, and I imagine telling my little girl self and she would be thrilled.
Thanks for sharing your thoughtful comments on the world of celebrity. It was really nice to hear from you!
