Hello! Welcome to Rat Hill.
RAT Hill's story began in 2021 as a way to process the grief of losing my grandfather.
It began with making match boxes out of his vintage southwest art magazine collection.
It turned into hand marbled paper from around the world, which
grew into many other objects d'art. Rat Hill was official.
RAT is my grandfather's initials and Hill refers to my home sitting up the
hill from where my grandparents lived until their passing.
Their home was a 'bothy' of art and collections.
It contained everything that embodies beauty in this world.
Thank you for being here and I hope my items spark joy for you.
