The Dingbatcave is the creation of painter Ann Stretton with some contributions from her husband Stan Starbuck. It began in 1997 when Ann’s love of fonts inspired her to create her own designs. She added her dingbats as a sideline of her main graphic and art site, ann-s-thesia.com. Now hundreds of dingbats later, The Dingbatcave is one of the longest lasting websites on the internet that exclusively offers artist-created original designs. Both Ann and Stan received their MFAs from the University of Wisconsin, and their BFAs from Colorado State, and currently live in Madison, Wisconsin.
