My First Ever Skelly Stickers 🖤

This feels like a small thing to write about…
but it’s actually a big one for me.

These are my very first Skelly stickers.

Skelly has existed in my sketchbooks, on canvases, as prints, ornaments, and little worlds for a while now — but turning him into stickers feels different. Stickers are intimate. They live on notebooks, laptops, water bottles, inside journals. They travel. They get handled. They become part of someone’s everyday life.

And that matters to me.

Why Stickers?

Skelly started as a quiet idea:
a skeleton boy learning how to be alive.

Not loudly.
Not perfectly.
Just… gently.

Stickers felt like the right next step because they’re small, affordable, and unpretentious — a way to own a little piece of that world without committing to a print or an original. They’re for people who like to surround themselves with tiny reminders, little comforts, odd companions.

The kind of art that doesn’t shout, but keeps you company.

From Painting to Sticker

Every Skelly sticker starts as a painting.

These aren’t flat digital illustrations — they’re taken from my original hand-painted artworks, with all the brush marks, softness, and imperfections left intact. I wanted them to feel painterly, even at sticker size.

Each design captures Skelly in a different moment:
resting, wandering, daydreaming, exploring — just existing in his own strange, quiet way.

Together, they form a small collection of moods rather than a single image.

The First Set

Because this is my first ever batch, I wanted it to feel complete and intentional.

You can buy the stickers individually if one design really speaks to you, or you can choose the full set of six — which includes one of each design. No duplicates. A whole little Skelly world, collected together.

It felt important that this first set tells a story, not just sells a product.

Where I Imagine Them Living

I love imagining where these stickers might end up:
on sketchbooks full of half-finished ideas,
on laptops that travel everywhere,
on journals that hold private thoughts,
on packaging sent to friends.

Small places. Personal places.

A Small Beginning

These stickers might be small, but for me they’re a meaningful step — a way of letting Skelly move a little further out into the world.

If you choose one (or all six), thank you.
You’re part of the very beginning of this.

And that means more than you probably realise.
