Roamin' Bison Workshop (AKA RoaminBison) is run by autistic indigenous artist - Nathaniel Manns - with the help of his partner and family.
He has successfully created and fulfilled over 10 crowdfunding campaigns, including the Weighted Wildlife Kickstarter campaign which remains in the top three most backed plushie campaigns across all crowdfunding websites.
He holds a degree in traditional animation from Sheridan College Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning and once worked as an animator, but set out to run an art-based business in 2018 when he found traditional employment incongruous with the challenges that come with being autistic. His work has been sold in science and art museums, boutiques, and wildlife rehabilitation centers. His special interest in animals continues to inform his work.
