about-us
Since 2023, we've been creating visual shortcuts to wisdom you've already learnt but forgotten.
VISUAL PHILOSOPHY
Meet "the Always Grateful" - our whimsical stick figure characters who appear throughout our illustrations, each marked by our signature scribbled halos.
The Always Grateful translate timeless wisdom into at-a-glance reminders. Christian scripture, philosophy, positive psychology - transformed into wearable art and homeware that recalls what you already know.
Our illustrations work as emotional shorthand. Deep wisdom without re-reading texts. Profound truths accessible in seconds. Through our distinctive stick figure illustrations, we capture profound concepts and transform them into wearable art and homeware.
People wear and display our art as identity markers - reminders that grateful is who they are, not what they're practicing.
THE MECHANISM
Wisdom gets forgotten in busy lives - our products bring it back.
Each illustration prompts micro-moments of reconnection. Your mug. Your wall. Your clothing.
Throughout the day, these visuals recall insights you've held before. The original wisdom. Our interpretation. Your reflection. The complete story in a single glance.
