What Makes It Uncommon

Cookout Composition

Your grillmaster has it all—the tongs, the brush, the spatula—but what about that special something to commemorate all those hours as Supervisor of the Spit? Artist Patricia Carlin's personalized family barbecue portraits are a charming and heartfelt homage to relaxing days around the grill. Include up to 14 figures (yes, that includes your four-legged fam too), then customize everything from skin tone to prop to hairstyle for each person. Across the top floats your family name, written in smoke as it drifts from the grill. Made in Oregon.

Uncommon Originals: created by our in-house team and only available at Uncommon Goods.

I like to keep things pretty simple. I focus on warmth, humor, and emotion.

Patricia Carlin believes that a small sketch has the power to tell a story without language. She started out as an art director in Philadelphia, selling everything from potato chips to financial products. In 2001, a friend wanted help launching a glassware business, so Patricia designed and wrote copy for several products for the new venture. Patricia has explored many techniques in her illustration, but simple line drawing appeals to her most. "For me, paring things down to their simplest essence is always the best way to understand them," she says.

We chatted with Patricia about how she brings her charming illustrations to life (and got a look at her adorable studio cat). Read the Q&A on our blog.
