About Us

"Cute dead things, illustrated"

Little Wounds was founded in 2016 by fine artist and illustrator Daphne Deitchman. Daphne is endlessly inspired by animals, nature, science, childhood nostalgia, and by life itself—birth, death, and everything in the messy in-between. Daphne's "little wounds" illustrate these themes with playfulness and beauty. 

Little Wounds features creepy-cute art and accessories that whimsically depict biological specimens and the darker side of the natural world. Whether you're into dissections, beetles and flies, snarling dogs, dead sheep heads, or just plants that smell like death, you're sure to find something to suit your needs. Every time you make a purchase from Little Wounds, you can be sure you are receiving a carefully imagined, crafted, and packaged item of artwork. In doing so, you support a "little" business and help us create more cute dead things.
