about the artist

hello, i am odette ✨

〰️ maker of silly cats & matcha bowls

I am Odette, the maker behind ode studio. A Taiwanese Canadian ceramic artist and designer based in Vancouver, Canada. I create cat-inspired mugs, trinkets, matcha bowls, and other silly little creations to brighten your space~ Each ceramic piece is handmade in small batches, making every one unique. 

My cats, Fun and Ro, inspire much of my ceramic work. Lately, I've also been illustrating and turn my designs into silly stickers. Which I illustrate and print at my home studio.

Before starting my small art business, I worked as a designer with a background in communication design from Emily Carr University. I started creating whimsy ceramics to bring a little good vibe into my life, and I hope these silly creations do the same for you. May they bring a smile to your face and a touch of happiness to your space ✨

I often share my art process via Instagram stories, follow my ceramic diaries there!!

Software - Paint tool SAI, Photoshop, Illustrator 
Printer - Xerox 
Sticker cutter - Cricut Maker

〰️ Collaboration 

I’m open to collabs with other brands and small businesses! In the past, I’ve designed custom matcha bowls for a local Vancouver matcha brand. As a small batch ceramic artist, my turnaround time is usually 1 to 3 months, with a minimum order of 10 pieces. If you’re looking for unique ceramics for your brand or event, feel free to email me at odecchii@gmail.com to chat about the project.
