Bree Buttenshaw

Bree Buttenshaw is a proud Aboriginal digital artist blending culture with a contemporary digital approach. Bree has been painting since she was young, always supported by her family through every creative hobby—from candle making to mosaics, they’ve probably tried it. She began freelancing in 2020, but Little Butten officially came to life in February 2022 with the launch of the Deadly collection.

Little Butten is everything that makes Bree—it’s funky, full of vibrant colour palettes, intricate patterns, love, fun, cultural resilience and pride. At its core is community, culture and Country. Everything Bree does is for community, through culture, and on Country. She gives back by donating profits from certain collections to community initiatives, and by contributing to raffles and events.

Little Butten is a family effort, with Bree as the founder and artist, supported by her mum Connie and nan Julie under her cultural guidance.
