my name is arden and i’m the creator behind happy arden. i’m a digital illustrator + merch designer based in charleston, south carolina.

i started happy arden in july of 2024 with a huge passion for cats, fandoms, and creating cute, colorful art on my ipad. since then, i’ve designed 100+ products and saved up for the proper equipment to make my stickers and packaging from my home studio!

as the former kid who grew up in fandoms online and running around conventions, it’s been a dream of mine for ages to pour my heart out through designing cute accessories. thank you for being here and supporting my art, it means the world to me. ♡
