: Hi! I'm Geo, the creative human behind . I am a Brisbane-based illustrator and tufting artist living in a colourful world of dreamy fairy-tale landscapes, delicate florals and a lot of joy and whimsy! I love turning my artworks into prints, stickers, stationery, accessories and apparel so that I can share this colourful, whimsical world with you all!

: Chris of 'Chris Things Art' refers to himself as "just another failed-Mexican-Wrestler turned arts/illustration-guy". Weird and wonderful, strange and self-indulgent pretty pictures are his jam. He specialises in 'low-brow', culty & B-Grade subject matter - frequently of the masked Mexican wrestling variety. Rough-around-the-edges, bright, bold, funky, very hand-generated and always very ‘Chris’.
creative: Rooted in Southeast Asian heritage, Julia Pham is a creative enthusiast driven by purpose, play, and passion. Through her studio practice, she explores culture, identity, and everyday life through vibrant, playful visual storytelling - crafting work that sparks joy, connection, and a genuine sense of belonging for diverse audiences.

: I am an illustrator with a background in animation and graphic design. I love visual storytelling and try to bring that into all of my art. I am inspired by medieval tapestries, art nouveau and fairytale illustration. I love mixing these older art movements with very current pop culture characters.
