Mini Rainbow Husky Rugs

pet portrait, rug tufting / / / , ,

Here are some mini husky rugs!
These little guys are based on a past commission. I thought the base design was simple enough that it would make a cute mini rug, and it’s nice to work with a dog design that’s not one of my border collies haha!
This time I chose blue eyes on the orange (red) husky, but still went with green on the blue (black) husky. Blue eyes are just so husky-ish! But I also appreciate how mellow the green looks against the blue without being too same-same. What do you think?

Mini Fox Rugs

New to the mini rug family, here are some foxes! I based this design on my 2021 large fox rugs (the 2022 has more detail and I didn’t think it’d scale down as well), and I’m pretty happy with them! I really love representing both red and silver foxes. I should do a cross fox some time if I remember haha!
I went with green eyes for these guys again. I think they work really well for the orange foxes and feel more natural than blue, but I kinda wish I’d gone with orange eyes on the blue foxes to maximise their foxiness.

Mini Cat Rugs

Here’s the new design for my tabby cat rugs for this year: Tabby kittens!
I love how kittens have absurdly big ears. I usually exaggerate the ears and eyes a bit for my designs, but definitely didn’t need to this time haha! I’m testing out green eyes for both the orange and blue colourways (usually I used blue eyes on orange and orange eyes on blue). What do you think?

Mini Cat Rugs

Here are some orange tabby cats and blue tabby cats! These mini rugs are around 7-8” across. I was again focusing on getting the details even and clean at this tiny size. The eyes are always the biggest challenge at this tiny size, because there’s really no wiggle room before the eyes look skewed. I think this batch definitely turned out the best so far!

I’m retiring this design after this batch, so be sure to snag one of these guys if you really want this design.

These mini rugs are available at RB Studio & Gallery here in Fredericton!

Mini Dog Rugs

Here are some orange pups and some blue pups! These little guys are about 7-8” on the longest side. I’ve been practising getting more detail into this tiny size, and I think it’s paying off. I’m retiring this design after this batch, so be sure to snag one of these guys if you really want this design.

These mini rugs are available at RB Studio & Gallery here in Fredericton, NB.

Small Tux Cat Rugs

I have a huge soft spot for tabby cats, but I wanted to show some appreciation for other kitties, too. My first ever cat was a tux with a blaze, and I still think tuxes are the most striking of kitties.

These kitty friends will be available at the Capital Art Sale, happening NOW until May 21st at 1400 Prospect St, in the Uptown Sobeys Plaza in Fredericton! Be sure to swing by and take a look at all the amazing work from local artists!

Small Red-Footed Tortoise Rugs

This is one of two new designs I’ll be premiering at the Capital Art Sale TONIGHT!!! (eee so excited!) I created this design to be a 30” rug, but I managed to squeeze it into a 15” rug without losing too much detail. I’m really pleased with this design and am SO excited to create a bigger version later.

These little tortoises will be available at the Capital Art Sale, happening May 17th to May 21st at 1400 Prospect St, in the Uptown Sobeys Plaza in Fredericton! Be sure to swing by and take a look at all the amazing work from local artists!

These little friends are a completely new design based on my youngest dog, Nonoha. She has such a puppy-ish face that I can’t help but make rugs based on her. These tiny rugs are 7” across and come ready to hang. They’ll be premiering at the Capital Art Sale, happening May 17th to May 21st at 1400 Prospect St, in the Uptown Sobeys Plaza in Fredericton! Be sure to swing by and take a look at all the amazing work from local artists!

Mini Orange and Blue Cat Rugs

These little kitties were another experiment to see how much detail I can cram into a tiny rug! They measure about 8” across and are created from the same pattern as my latest 30” rainbow tabbies! I had to simplify the markings a bit, but they turned out surprisingly well!

Here are two little fox friends I created for the Capital Art Sale! I used the same design for these little guys as my newest, large fox rug; and I think it translated really nicely!

Be sure to come see these little guys, and their big fox friend, in person at the Capital Art Sale, happening May 17th to May 21st at 1400 Prospect St, in the Uptown Sobeys Plaza in Fredericton!
