THE PYNKVERSE

A world where emotion has color, and imagination brings us together.

Welcome to the Pynkverse

The Pynkverse is a story world where color reflects emotion, characters grow through feeling, and imagination has the power to connect people across generations.

It is the world behind my carvings, stories, and community experiences — a place where kindness is strength, curiosity is celebrated, and creativity helps us understand what we feel.

Pynk is at the heart of this world.
Not just a color — but a symbol of inner goodness, honesty, courage, and compassion.

How the Pynkverse Works

The Pynkverse is built on a simple idea:

Emotion Has Color

In this world, what we feel shows on the outside.
When a character is aligned with their best self — they shine in Pynk.

Other colors appear too, but Pynk represents emotional truth and balance.

Characters Grow Through Story

Every character in the Pynkverse is learning something:

  • how to be brave

  • how to be kind

  • how to listen and reflect

  • how to grow

Stories don’t solve problems for them — they help characters understand them.

Imagination Makes Things real

In the real world, Pynkverse characters begin as raw wood.
They gain color — and meaning — through imagination, participation, and community.

This is where the Pynkverse crosses into real life.

The Characters of the Pynkverse

Pynko

The heart of the Pynkverse.

Pynko is joyful, curious, and honest — a character who helps others discover their own Pynkness. His Pynk color represents emotional openness and the courage to be yourself.

Pynko is the first character many children meet through the Pynkverse Painting Experience.

Owlya

The guide.

Owlya represents wisdom, reflection, and perspective. She appears when characters pause, question, or need help seeing things more clearly.

Owlya is central to Pynkverse experiences designed for adults and elders — where conversation, memory, and shared insight take center stage.

Additional characters will be introduced as the world grows.

The Pynkverse in the Real World

Sawtistic is wearing pink overalls and black gloves, is smiling at a girl with dark hair, wearing a pink shirt, who is helping Owlya get its Pynk back by painting her pink.

The Pynkverse isn’t only something you read about.
It’s something you experience.

Through the Pynkverse Painting Experience, communities help bring a carved character to life:

  • A character arrives in raw wood

  • A story introduces the Pynkverse

  • Participants paint the character together

  • The finished piece remains as a shared artwork

For children, the experience centers on Pynko — curiosity and emotional discovery.
For adults and elders, it centers on Owlya — wisdom, reflection, and storytelling.

Each experience is adapted thoughtfully, but rooted in the same values:
art, story, color, and community.

Why the Pynkverse Exists

The Pynkverse exists to remind us that:

  • Emotions are natural

  • Creativity is a shared language

  • Stories help us understand ourselves and each other

  • Meaning can be created together

Whether through a carving, a story, or a painted character, the Pynkverse invites people to slow down, reflect, and connect.

Where the Pynkverse Is Going

The Pynkverse will continue to grow through:

  • Storybooks

  • Community installations

  • Intergenerational art experiences

  • New characters

  • New stories

Everything begins with a single carved form — and the imagination of the people who bring it to life.
