Toy Costumes

Hey friends of Bjornik, don’t you just love growing up? It makes you want to explore more and experience more. This blog and yours truly is about to embark a new adventure, that thrill of growing up. If you look closer, notice this fresh addition to my roster of art. Yes, they are fun and every kid’s fancy – TOYS.

For the month of May, I worked on a series of toys in preparation for another artistic endeavor that I hope I'll soon be able to pursue. After a month of fun and learning, I'm very pleased to present to you Toy Costumes. This is my "summer fashion line" of artist collectible toys. This is the first time that I'm selling my original stuff so please bear with me for posting it here.

These vinyl toys are approximately 3-5" tall. They are one-offs and are signed by me at the bottom. For the curious, they are hand painted with acrylics and then coated with satin polymer varnish with UVLS. The linework of the Wanderer's hair has been drawn using a pen by the way. All these have already been sold out. But if you want to be updated on my next collection, please email me and I'll add you to my mailing list.:)

Thank you for being a part of my adventure. Growing up has never been this exciting.:)
