Meet Our Artists

Oopsy daisy Artists

The art we bring to you begins with a true artist who shapes and reworks each piece, layering it with his or her own unique vision and pair of hands. Our pride in the quality of our reproduction work is a pride of craftsmanship and pleasure in fulfilling our commitment to “Made in the USA.” What began with two parents seeking better art for their children is now a group of more than 90 artists and 45 Oopsy daisy team members. Journeying (joyfully) from a garage to a 28,000 square foot San Diego studio, we remain as committed as ever to providing simply the best art for kids everywhere.
