The Process

Only Limited To Your Imagination

The Foundation

Every piece starts with an idea and raw material.

Wire & Foil Armature

Before any clay, the skeleton. Wire bent to shape, wrapped in foil. Without it, nothing holds.

Sculpting & Detail

Bold dramatic scales where the species calls for it, smooth contoured body where it doesn’t.

Color & Finish

Painted, signed by hand and sealed to protect the work.

The Results

My creatures and ideas are brought to life for others to enjoy!

What Collectors Are Saying

  • Coiled and unyielding, the snake claims space with raw elegance. An emblem of power, rebirth, and untamed presence. 

    It takes space in my library and reminds me how art and nature fuse always with literature.  Brook is an artist to appreciate.

Meet Brooklyn

Hey, I’m Brooklyn. I sculpt snakes, frogs, bats, octopuses.. basically any little creature that deserves a moment in the spotlight. I grew up in a home filled with rescued reptiles and a creative studio that always smelled like paint and clay. That mix of wild energy and creative curiosity shaped everything I do today. Every piece is made by hand in my Ohio studio…. just clay, patience, and too much coffee.

Every piece from Hanging with Snakes is made by hand

and that means the process, the pricing, and the whole experience is a little different from your average online shop. Here’s everything you might be wondering, all in one place. Still don’t see what you need? Just send a message.. I’m always happy to chat.

Every single piece I create is sculpted by hand from polymer clay: no molds, no casting, no shortcuts. I build each snake from scratch, layer by layer, adding scale texture, realistic proportions, and species-accurate details that can take 8 to 12 hours per piece. Once sculpted, each one gets baked, hand-painted with acrylics, and sealed with a satin finish to protect it for years. What you’re getting isn’t a mass-produced figurine , it’s a one-of-a-kind, signed piece of art.

Yes, and pet replicas are honestly some of my favorite pieces to make. If you want a sculpture of your own snake, just send me some photos and tell me a little about them: species, coloring, any poses or personality quirks you love, and I’ll put together a custom quote. The typical turnaround for a commission is 4 to 8 weeks. I take my time with each one, and I’ll send you completion photos before anything ships so you know exactly what you’re getting. Commission slots do fill up, so if you’re interested, the best move is to fill out the contact form and get on the waitlist.

Sculptures start at $100 and go up from there based on size, detail level, and customization. Larger pieces, more intricate scale work, and custom commissions are priced higher: usually in the $150–$200+ range. I’ll always confirm pricing before anything is finalized, so there are no surprises. Payment is accepted through PayPal and CashApp in USD. For standard commissions, payment is collected once your piece is complete and you’ve approved the final photos. For highly custom or detailed pieces, a deposit may be requested upfront.

The magnetic accessory system is something I developed because I wanted collectors to be able to change up their snakes’ look.. and honestly, it’s become one of my favorite things I offer. Each sculpture can be built with small, strong magnets embedded at the neck, head, or collar area, which lets you swap out interchangeable accessories like hats and collars depending on the season, your mood, or whatever feels right. Magnetic add-ons come with a surprise accessory included, and you can request additional accessories separately. It’s a pretty unique feature in handmade sculpture art. I haven’t seen anyone else doing it quite this way. 🖤

I ship throughout the United States with a flat rate of $20 and 2 to 3 day delivery. International shipping is available too. The UK is confirmed, and other countries are available upon request. You cover the international shipping cost, which I calculate based on your location. Every piece ships with tracking and is packed with custom-fitted protective padding, so it arrives safe. As for care: display your piece on a stable surface away from direct sunlight, dust it gently with a soft dry brush when needed, and keep it away from water and extreme temperatures. Polymer clay is actually pretty durable with basic care, your sculpture should last for years.
