Description
Stella AlmaGemela Javelina was born a fiercely independent tomboy. She’d be all harnessed up in a race to the tippity-top of the Canyon wall, squealing as she sailed all the way back down to a first place finish. She never minded getting more than a bit dirty in a championship bog war, slinging more than she was taking. And she would lose herself in the hardware store – at least weekly, and always in the power tool aisle…coveting.
But, the day she met Harvey Curranhall Bison, her softer side made an unexpected appearance. He makes her giggle, and blush, and feel positively giddy. He makes Stella sparkle. She loves how, without diminishing her power and strength, rather, in championing it, he shows Stella that she doesn’t have to be everything to be something…special. Read More about Stella’s story on the back of the card! Each card includes whimsical tale of the animal featured.

The artist behind Central & Gus remembers driving home from the family farm as a kid. She’d have her big rosey-pink binder open in my lap, writing down all the names of the animals she’d have at her very own rescue-sanctuary one day. While the farm may now be a memory, it is also the seed of her dreams. Henry David Thoreau wrote, ‘If you have built castles in the air (or barns, as it were…), your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.’
She loves to draw. It is almost meditative to pencil myriad tiny lines until a beautiful life appears on the page. The characters she draws are a part of an interwoven community, each with their own tale. These stories come together to underline the understanding of worth and value in every one and, from a larger perspective, the idea that we all have a gift that we must be responsible to, for our selves and our community. This is Central & Gus.
