About the Artist:

In 2005, Kristin Tercek started Cuddly Rigor Mortis LLC, which began as a collection of handmade plush dolls. After years of sewing her characters, the artist decided to broaden her horizons by painting. No longer limited by sewing patterns, the family of adorable CRM characters has continued to come to life in form of cute foods, charming botanicals, and animals both real and imagined. The subject of this latest collection is one that is close to Tercek's heart. After the artist's lifelong challenge with depression, finding appreciation and happiness in the little things in life became of importance. It is the artist's goal to bring smiles to the faces of all who enjoy her work.
