Ohhhhh my - are we excited with this idea from M.Patrizio.......Thanks for the unreal use.




Marilyn Patrizio was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. She is a freelance illustrator, fine artist and soft toy designer.

After graduating from the School of Visual Arts with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Illustration in 2000 she began working as a staff illustrator at a children's educational software company. In 2004 she dove into the world of freelance illustration and has enjoyed collaborating with local and international clients ever since. In the beginning of 2005 she discovered the art of crochet toys also known as Amigurumi. This was perfect for her because her mother had taught her how to crochet many years before, and this was a great way to incorporate 3-D items into her work.

After a few months of experimentation making freeform soft toys she decided to start a company called So Softies in March 2005. She's grown the So Softies line to now include stationery, t-shirts and accessories featuring the original characters that she's created.


If anyone else has done something cool with decalart mania, send us a pic and your bio so we can add it to the blog.
