Endurance – Thousand Oaks CA Mini Butterfly

$250.00
Only 1 available

Artist Proof

Each butterfly in the Resilience campaign represents a story of transformation, remembrance, and hope. The Thousand Oaks, CA shooting occurred on November 7, 2018, at the Borderline Bar & Grill during a college night event, where a gunman opened fire on young patrons, many of them students. Just one day later, the Woolsey Fire swept through the region, burning nearly 100,000 acres and compounding the community’s grief with another devastating blow.

This handcrafted miniature honors the Thousand Oaks community with the same care and symbolism as its larger counterpart. Inspired by the city’s namesake oak trees — known for their deep roots, strength, and longevity — the butterfly reflects resilience, endurance, and community in the face of atrocity. Each piece serves as a quiet tribute to lives lost and a reminder of what we continue to hope for.

This small batch of artist proofs was handcrafted in our studio as part of the process of refining and perfecting the full-scale butterfly sculptures. Each piece captures the spirit of the final design while offering a rare glimpse into the artistry, experimentation, and care behind our work. A testament to beauty born from resilience, no two are exactly alike.

100% of proceeds support our nonprofit partners driving healing and systemic change.

Please allow 2 to 3 business days for order processing.

MORE ABOUT THIS BUTTERFLY

  • This small batch of artist proofs was handcrafted in our studio as part of the process of refining and perfecting the full-scale butterfly sculptures. Each piece captures the spirit of the final design while offering a rare glimpse into the artistry, experimentation, and care behind our work. A testament to beauty born from resilience, no two are exactly alike. Each proof comes with a stamped certificate of authenticity, ensuring its place as a genuine work of art.

  • Flexible and hard resin featuring hand-applied resin-based paint and embedded hand-shredded bullet casings. Each piece is cast, assembled, and finished in-studio with precision and care.

  • Each mini butterfly in this batch is one of six unique silhouettes, with slight variations. While all pieces are inspired by the large butterfly design, the process involves hand painted compositions where no two are exactly alike—ensuring each collector receives a truly one-of-a-kind work of art.

  • Each butterfly shape varies slightly in size, ranging approximately from 4"–5.5" in width and 2.6"–3.3" in height, depending on the silhouette.

  • Each butterfly includes an embedded magnet and comes with a metal pin for versatile display. Simply place the butterfly on any magnetic surface, or insert the pin into a wall to create a seamless floating effect. Designed for easy, damage-free installation.

  • To preserve clarity and color, display indoors in a cool, dry environment and out of direct sunlight. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use warm water with mild dish soap and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners or prolonged moisture exposure.

  • 100% of proceeds support Sandy Hook Promise and Giffords, our impact and education partners, respectively. Your purchase directly contributes to their lifesaving work.
