ToyCyte: Toy Culture Collected

I like to periodically check in with artists I previously wrote about and see what they’re up to for the holidays. Does the name Cuddly Rigor Mortis conjure up some thoughts of cupids and confectionary sweets? No? Well,  Kristin Tercek has got you covered for Valentine’s Day, anyway. Literally. Starting from the bottom up with her Brian the Brain character, which you can wear proudly on your nether regions. She’s also got some lovestruck Zombies and pissed-off cupids available as Valentine’s Day cards and various garments here. And finally, putting the “cuddly” back in Cuddly Rigor Mortis, Kristin’s got a variety of high-quality hand-sewn monsters, including Mini Marshy and Devil plushes here. I didn’t collect plush, but after Kristin sent me one of her Franks last year, I became a believer. Great stuff. Support indie artists!
