Looking for a creative outlet to balance her day job as a music teacher, Renovia Marro began sculpting polymer clay kitties and launched her Etsy shop Endless Whimsy. Her two cats Stoli, a Russian Blue, and Luxor, an Egyptian Mau, serve as her muses.

The sculptures have a simple style that captures the feline essence perfectly. In addition to working in polymer clay, Renovia also makes hand painted porcelain figurines. She will even customize a sculpture to match your own cat based on photos that you send her. 10% of all sales at Endless Whimsy are donated to the Homeless Animal Rescue Team of Maine, a feline shelter and adoption center in Cumberland, Maine.

BONUS GIVEAWAY Three winners!
Renovia is offering a polymer clay kitty sculpture to each of THREE lucky Moderncat readers. The winners will even get to choose a color from the palette below. To enter, please leave a comment on this post. The drawing will take place on August 26. This giveaway is open to readers everywhere!
