Collection: Marianna D. D. King

Marianna D. D. King is a professional tattoo artist with 17+ years of experience and a background in graphic design and painting. Originally from a small town in South America, she uses pottery as a way of communicating - a medium through which the creatures that live inside her imagination come to life in clay. 

Her goal is simple: to make people smile. Not with a loud laugh, but with the quiet grin that appears when someone unexpectedly encounters a silly little animal in an everyday situation. 

Environmental conservation and veganism are central to Marianna's identity. As a wildlife volunteer, she donates 100% of the profits from her pottery to Harmony Wildlife, a rehabilitation center for native wildlife where she volunteers. This connection to animals naturally shapes her work, which is populated by curious critters alongside fruits and vegetables that celebrate the natural world. 

Marianna tells her story through the animals and landscapes of the places she has called home. Her work features Florida alligators, South American capybaras, and, following her recent move to Tennessee, has begun to embrace a distinctly Americana spirit inspired by the region's wildlife and culture. Each piece becomes a small chapter of her journey, inviting viewers to find humor, warmth, and wonder in the everyday.
