The Meaning of Mushka

Mushka is Polish for "little fly". This is the nickname that I was given by my grandmother when I was born because I had such big brown eyes. The name stuck (everyone in my family now refers to me as "Moo") and twenty-some years later I chose this name for my company. I wanted to honor my Polish heritage and my strong connection with my family and loved ones. I also thought this name was appropriate because being an artist is not just about having skilled hands; it is about having watchful eyes. The infinite strength and beauty that I see in nature and in people inspires me everyday.
