Lowell Herrero Cat Mug

The artist behind our Lowell Herrero Cat Mug section was born in Oakland in 1921 and graduated from the California College of Arts and Crafts. He became an acclaimed illustrator and headed his own design firm which created images for corporations such as Chevrolet and Bank of America. However, his passion for painting led to him closing his firm in the late 1970's to pursue painting full-time.

We're delighted to give you a sneak preview of the Lowell Herrero mug that is coming in March. It's called Stretch Kelley and it's adorable! If you would like to place a preorder now in order to receive one or more mugs from the first shipment, you can do so below.

YES, I WOULD LIKE TO PLACE MY PREORDER FOR THE STRETCH KELLEY TRAVEL MUG BY LOWELL HERRERO WHICH WILL ARRIVE IN MARCH!

Lowell Herrero's unique style of combining exaggeration with lighthearted innocence has been applied to everything from dogs and cats to farmers and fishermen. Since then we have seen cats and cows, nuns and hunters, cran-berry bogsmen, ladies rowing clubs, delta farmers and fisherwomen.

Herrero's mesmerizing illustrations of the American cat shows his zest for life. As with his other works, his feline subjects are represented with an exaggerated realism. Layers of color combined with fine detail add to the beauty and fun.

Lowell Herrero is also known for his calendars, first the whale series in 1979 which was followed by a cat series, then cows. His art can be found throughout the world in galleries, private and corporate collections, and sold by art retailers.
