About Smiling Creatives

Smiling Creatives is a small art and design project based in Cambodia — sharing simple, happy moments of creativity inspired by everyday life. We believe art doesn’t need to be perfect — it just needs to make you smile. From handmade objects and playful ideas to community storytelling, everything we do celebrates imagination and connection. Our curious mascot Swa Jrolerm, the monkey of creativity, invites everyone to join in — to make, laugh, and create something new together. A home for creativity, joy, and small stories that grow.

The Soft shell Turtle 🐢

An endangered species that has become a delicacy within Asia. The idea that old thinking or beliefs allowing people to consume an animal they know is going to dissappear shows the basics of human stupidity.

For the upcoming Drawn the Wild. This is the SE Asian Elephant 🐘.

This custom deisgn, print and painted was the idea of after a long day building the temples like Angkor Wat that this giant amazing animal sat back and relaxed, wisely watching the world go by.
