PODGES, PROFESSIONAL ART PRINTS & ORIGINALS

Top shop for gifts.

A buyer bought a gift from this shop and gave it a 5-star review!

Announcement    Sloane Kady's an inked-up, pop-surrealist painter and wielder of comedy & curse words, who deals exclusively in honesty. She's also a horror lover/blogger and a best-best selling author. Most importantly, she's a mama (her favorite job), a wife (her other favorite job), and all-around wild woman who likes to be in bed by ten. She's got sharp edges, but her heart is big enough to warm your spirits, even if it is full of inappropriate jokes.

Sloane's been dabbling in art since she was old enough to hold a crayon, but she became more serious about her work in the early 2000s, when she was picked up by an art manager, and her then abstract paintings were featured in several gallery showings.

​Sloane has since discovered herself, as both a woman and an artist. Where she used to create bland, timid pieces, she now creates with reckless abandon and unbridled joy and bravery.

​Several years back, she completed her Expression series — an exploration into the mysticism of womanhood. The expression series, which was picked up by a wholesale distributor, is a celebration of the woman she's become and the even wiser woman she hopes to be. Sloane is currently working on a new series called Mujeres Fuertes — a playful yet deeply striking portrayal of feminine beauty and strength in the face of pain, aging, and opposition in all its ugly forms.
​​
But here you'll find Sloane's illustrations, dolls, and her beloved podges—though many are custom made, and they always sell out quickly! Her Etsy shop is dedicated to her whimsical illustrations—smaller, more playful paintings highlighting her love for the macabre, and her magically creepy dolls & podges.

The stunning imagery that pours from Kady is a product of an artist who colors way outside the lines, scoffing at conventional wisdom and societal norms. You can tell by the vibrancy of her work and the power of her words that she loves what she does, even if you don't.

​"Because art without poison is too sweet, and women without grit shatter too easily."

PODGES: These stuffed art dolls/creatures are more than just precious and creepy—they're absolutely unique and are perfect for that impossible-to-shop-for friend. All podges are completely handmade with quality materials, from higher-end, thicker fabrics, to the best thread, to premium dyes and inks. All podges are filled with Poly-Fil, and their arms and legs are weighted with plastic beads.

Keep in mind that these are works of art. They're fine for children, but be mindful that, while well constructed, they aren't meant for play. Treat your podge with care and it will last for decades.

Also, podges are intentionally made with a messy, tattered finish for a vintage look. Frayed edges and funky stitching give each podge character.

PAINTINGS & PRINTS: Every piece is completely done by hand. Some pieces are mixed media, combining several different mediums (watercolor, ink, acrylic, graphite, dye). All original pieces are finished with light-fast mediums and will last for many years. Giclee prints are done professionally with archival ink on high quality, professional LEXJET premium archival matte paper, printed with brilliant, vivid colors.

All items come from a smoke-free/pet-free home and have been packed with much care.

COPYRIGHT:
All original paintings, prints, digital images of the paintings, cards, or any other representation made of original paintings are copyrighted by Sloane Kady and may not be used for any purpose without prior written consent. Sloane Kady maintains perpetual ownership of the copyright regardless if the painting is sold, given as a gift, or decommissioned and may use and/or reproduce the image at any time in the future in any way she desires.

Damaged Items:
Great care is taken in ensuring that each piece will not sustain damage during the shipping process. As stated, all orders are insured. If an item is damaged during shipment, please notify the shop within 24 hours of delivery (please provide photos) to arrange a refund or replacement.

RETURNS: Accepted within 7 days of delivery, within the continental United States. If you would like a refund, please notify the shop immediately. All items must be returned in original condition and packed with care. Return shipping, tracking, and insurance are the buyer's responsibility. These steps are highly recommended as any damaged item will not be refunded without proof of insurance. Upon retrieval of the item, it will be inspected, at which point a refund will be issued. If the item isn't in its original condition, profits lost will fall under the responsibility of the buyer.
