“Cayligraphy is a pun-tastic name I grew into when I combined my given name and my chosen field. It's always evolving as I do and it's rarely serious, usually silly, and amiably simple. Each Cayligraphy piece begins as an inky hand-lettered or drawn illustration that is deeply inspired by Mother Nature, sending goodness, and laughing your pants off with your friends at 2am. Fueled by my staunch appreciation of (and dedication to) art being fused into our lives, those pieces will become prints, stickers, cards, notebooks, and reusable bags. I revel in branching out into delightful new mediums and have been known to put a Cayligraphy spin on pyrography, glass painting, leatherwork, screen printed goodies, and more. I believe that what we make matters, and how we make matters just as much, so I plant a tree for every two stickers sold via my Love Your Mother program, print with wind power on recycled paper, produce my reusable bags in small batches with a factory in Mexico that treats their workers with respect and pays them well, and am working toward becoming completely plastic neutral."

My style is surreal, immersive, colorful, over-the-top, with a balance of both horror and whimsy. I’m often asked “what were you on when you painted this?" - both a compliment, and a depressing commentary on the assumption that creativity has to be fueled by chemicals. My inspiration comes from my background in animation, as well as toys, puppets, video games, comic books, and cos-play. I’m inspired by past creatives like Jim Henson, H.P. Lovecraft, and Dr. Seuss, as well as modern creatives like Tim Burton, Wayne White, Craola, Dulk, and Alex Pardee.

Each piece is laser-cut flat, and I determine which axis that piece will land on. Using a laser cutter, as well as utilizing a monochromatic color scheme, gives each piece a solid industrial design aesthetic that pairs with my patterns and designs. Inspiration comes from everywhere, and my work continues to evolve as the design and construction methods adapt to what each piece requires. I design and construct boxes, bowls, puzzles, lamps, and wall art, among commissioned pieces and gallery entries. Some items are functional, others make a statement. But they're all SWORKS."

We have saved over 60k records from the landfill giving them a second life and purpose in making people's spaces happier. Design-wise we do around 1000 different designs with a variety ranging from over 50 different Cleveland themed designs to fan art referencing our favorite TV, movie and video game characters; as well as a number of boho and nature influenced images. Actors from the Walking Dead, My Hero Academia, and Outlander own records we made, as well as our records being used on a HGTV show in 2018. We do a number of other forms of art on other mediums, but this has always been our most popular. Primarily our designs are done with hand cut stencils, but there is a growing number that we screen print. At our events we set up display walls showing our newest designs, and fill up at table with storage crates filled with additional designs. Part of the fun is digging through crates how record stores used to display them, only now customers are crate digging for new wall art."
