Jim Shore

Jim Shore grew up in rural South Carolina, the son of artistic parents who instilled a love of the traditional imagery of American folk art. His grandmother was a master quilter who taught him an appreciation for the patience and the skill required to bring these inticate designs to life. In 2001 Jim Shore and Enesco entered into an agreement to create Heartwood Creek by Jim Shore, the line of folk-art inspired accessories that has brought him world-wide fame. While working with Enesco Jim perfected his unique style, combining elements of folk art with a vibrant color pallet applied to traditional and Disney themes. Jim's unique design style applied to iconic Disney characters has made Disney Traditions by Jim Shore one of the most successful co-branded lines in the gift and home décor industry.
