About Us

I’m an independent Australian artist, designer, animator, and small business owner, and I’ve been a professional artist my entire working life — around 16 years (as of 2026). Candy Kult grew out of my love for sweet, colorful, cute, and sometimes a little twisted, and my desire to bring my original artwork and characters into the physical world through collectibles, accessories, and handmade creations.

I am an artist, sculptor, product designer, and have been tattooist here in Brisbane off and on over 15 years with my husband and I owning and operating a tattoo studio here for 15+ years. The start of my career was as a tattooist, I then taught myself digital art around 2014, which changed the direction of my work. I started doing comic-cons and conventions selling my work which was mainly fan art at the time.. That led me to being the artist driving force behind a Brisbane based clothing brand from 2017 to 2025, this period of time expanded my world artistically, forcing me to draw many things I wouldn't have drawn otherwise, expanded my style range (as tattooing did also) and taught me so much about product design and development.

My path here hasn’t been straightforward. I’ve lived my entire life with multiple autoimmune disease, and over time my health became increasingly debilitating. It meant letting go of things I deeply loved — including tattooing, which had been off and on for me over the years as I battled the ups and downs of my health.

In 2024 I reached one of the lowest points I’d faced — personally, creatively, and physically. I had to accept that I couldn’t continue doing so many things i had always done, and everything I had built felt uprooted.

During that time, I created a character based on a wish — a wish for better days, good luck, and something new rising from loss.
That character was Wishbone.

As an artist I’m usually extremely critical of my work and always focused on what could be improved rather than just stop and enjoy what I had created (I’m sure other artists can relate). So it surprised me how deeply I connected with this character — I genuinely fell in love. That connection sparked something new. I taught myself animation, expanded my skills, and began reshaping Candy Kult around character storytelling and world-building.

I launched a YouTube channel to share my animation journey, and within my first year the community grew to over 100K subscribers — something I never expected..

Today, Candy Kult continues evolving into Candy Kult Land — a playful, kawaii, slightly surreal universe of original characters, imagination, and creativity. Some items are handmade directly by me, while others are produced to order through trusted partners so I can bring more of my designs into the world while continuing to create new characters, sculptures, and artwork.

Everything you see here begins with my original ideas and artistic direction — this space is deeply personal, constantly growing, and shaped by resilience, curiosity, and a bit of sweet chaos.

Candy Kult isn’t just a store to me — it’s an evolving world, a creative outlet, and a way to connect with others who resonate with the characters and stories inside it.

Thank you for being here and supporting independent creativity 🩷
