About The Artist

Sara loves to create playful characters and warm, whimsical, worlds. She believes that art is a powerful tool for connection, and aims to bring vibrancy to everyday moments in our daily lives.

She lives in Tennessee, and when not working on art or her second job as local stray cat paparazzi, she enjoys playing fantasy RPGs, hanging out with her cats, and making soup.

Can I Get Your Work Tattooed?

Yes! As long as the tattoo artist understands that my designs are copyrighted works which cannot be modified or resold as flash or merchandise of any type, I am ok with someone getting my designs as a tattoo - and I'm honored that you enjoy my work that much!

While a purchase is not required, I suggest buying something from my store to support me being able to continue to make fun designs :)

Also, I'd love to see a photo of the finished tattoo!

Do You Do Custom Designs?

I have temporarily stepped away from offering custom designs/merchandise in order to focus my attention on wholesale orders and market events.

While I most likely won't be able to take on a project due to scheduling, I still really enjoy collaboration work and have met so many great people though client projects.

If you think we'd be a great fit, email me!

Where is Your Social Media?

Social media sucks and I'm just bad at using it. I am currently only on Bluesky. If you see an account anywhere else, please report it to me by emailing me at sara@saramccandless.com
