A Tribute to Kiwi: The Heart Behind "Some-Bunny To Love"
Today is an incredibly special release day here at Plookiss. Alongside the new botanical wrapping paper range, I’ve just launched a brand new minimalist botanical illustration: the "Some-Bunny To Love" bunny ear cactus wall art print. While my digital art usually focuses on the quiet, structured beauty of succulents and modern desert wall decor, this particular piece holds a much deeper, entirely personal meaning.
For 14 wonderful years
I shared my life with an incredible rabbit named Kiwi Bunny. He was, quite simply, my everything. Anyone who has ever loved a pet knows that they don't just occupy a physical space in your home; they take up permanent residence in your heart. I miss him terribly, and lately, I’ve been looking for a way to channel all of that lingering love into my studio work to create a piece of subtle pet memorial art that anyone could connect with.
Designing the "Some-Bunny To Love" Cactus Art Print
The Opuntia microdasys—more commonly known as the bunny ear cactus—felt like the perfect bridge between my signature style and Kiwi’s memory. As I sat at my desk mapping out the vector curves and layers in Affinity, bringing those distinct, playful cactus pads to life, the process turned into a quiet homage to my old friend. The plant naturally carries a sense of joy, softness, and character—exactly what Kiwi brought into my life for over a decade.
A Botanical Tribute: Greenery Wall Art & Matching Gift Wrap
Dedicating this new cactus art print to him is my way of keeping his memory blooming. Whether you’re looking for meaningful gifts for plant lovers, bringing a touch of nature indoors with new living room wall decor, or preparing a present using our new botanical wrapping paper rolls, I hope a little bit of the warmth and happiness Kiwi gave to me translates into your space. He truly was the best companion I could have ever asked for, and I am so proud to share this tribute to him with all of you.
