GURO BAKERY
Digital Artist & Designer
About MeI’m a solo multimedia artist & fursuit maker from the UKMy work showcases a mixture of my love of toothy monsters, spooky things & the kawaii!I use traditional & digital mediums to create my art works & love to explore new options too!I have a particular love of Alcohol based markers, ink, watercolour paints & pencil & often use multiple of these in a single piece to achieve the look of my works.My fursuits are made mostly on hand carved, upholstery foam bases, with fabric claws & teeth & sublimation printed eyes.I’m 32, transgender & live with physical & neurological disabilities but won’t let it keep me from doing what I love!I hope to work on many more projects (both personal & custom/ commission works)
Who knows, maybe one day that could be with you!
About The Studio NameThe name is a combo name to represent my loves of both monster/ toothy & kawaii aesthetics.The first part is to represent my loves of toothy/ monster aesthetics & comes from the Japanese term “Guro” to mean grotesque/ horrific
I’ve provided some context for this term below
…
”In Japanese, the word "guro" (グロ) is short for "grotesque" and is used to describe something that is malformed, unnatural, or horrific."Guro" signifies things that are unsettling, physically distorted, or frightening, focusing on the horrific or unnatural aspects of the human form and experience”
…
The “Bakery” part is in reference to how baked goods (cakes, biscuits & sweet things) are associated with cute/ kawaii aesthetics that I also have a love for & so I use “Bakery” both to marry the spookier & cute aesthetics together in a single name and also as a to imply “Studio” within the name itself too!Though I do sometimes add it to the end too “GuroBakery Studios” in certain scenarios too!
