223: Family Tree

"Other things may change us, but we start and end with family." - Anthony Brandt

When we're young, family is all we have to start out. They are our first connection, settled deep within our bones, and firmly imprinted upon our memory. As we grow through childhood, family can bother us, embarrass, annoy. We yearn to pull away and become independent, wanting to be known as "our own thing." And perhaps we do. But during this journey, at one point or another, family calls us home, not just physically, but to bond again with our first connection. In the midst of this reconnection, we discover that our home is in multiple hearts, as we find that our family is in our blood, in our love, and in the people we choose to be around.

Houston Llew Spiritiles are handcrafted, mixed-media artworks that blend vibrant enamel imagery with hand-applied copper, all set within a distinctive wood frame. Each piece features an inspirational quote—often poetic, literary, or philosophical—making every tile both a visual statement and a meaningful keepsake.

Created using a unique fusion process, the enamel artwork is kiln-fired onto copper, producing rich colors, luminous depth, and subtle texture that can’t be replicated in print. The natural patina of the copper and the warmth of the wood frame give each Spiritile a timeless, artisan quality.

Highly collectible and giftable, Spiritiles are designed to stand alone or be displayed in curated groupings, allowing collectors to build a personal story through art. Whether commemorating milestones, celebrating relationships, or simply adding a pop of color and inspiration to a space, each piece is a small but powerful work of art.

Measures: 5.25 x 8.5 x 1.75”, can be displayed on the wall or free standing
