My name is Wanda España, an artist based in Union, New Jersey. I specialize in acrylics and draw deep inspiration from the rich, colorful traditions of Latin American art and textiles, which profoundly influence my use of color and pattern. As a result, my artistic style is colorful, whimsical and folksy. Each piece is a heartfelt form of self-expression designed to uplift and bring joy to your space.

Come shop, relax, and treat yourself or your best Galentines to something special before the big game 🏈 on Sunday 2/9, from 1-3pm!

Cute, quirky, irreverent, handmade cards, stickers, magnets, t-shirts and tote bags (and more!) featuring animals wearing clothes and often using curse words. The tagline of Stupid Sloth Cards is “Not just cards. Not just sloths.”

These stupid items are made by Victoria Aronoff. She has always loved to draw animals wearing clothes, mostly because that’s the only thing she can draw. By day, she is the Development Director for a nonprofit and the mom of two grouchy teenagers, one goofy dog, and a chubby guinea pig. She has a pretty useless B.A. in English from Wesleyan University and grew up in a drafty/sweltering New York City loft with her writer/artist parents and several cats who she liked to draw wearing clothes. Despite her urban upbringing, she prefers her current home of Maplewood, NJ, even though no sloths live there.
