Introduce yourself !

Hello there!!

lets get to know a little bit of eachothers goofy minds ! :)

I'm Eleonora and brand new on the Etsy network, even though i have been an active artist for the last years.
why this pretty ugly cute team?

In my art you find a lot of surrealistic content, strange apperances, melancholic sfeers ! oy yeaah its totally weird.

Im following the study Fine Art and Design Teacher at my school where circus, music, drama and dance is under the same roof. Dutch television recently made a reality serie about me representing the Art studies and 4 students from the other educations leading our creative student life.

Besides that i make personal artwork and take on assigments. movies and animations, photography, poems, little bit of singing and i keep myself pretty busy during the day :p
now the times got hard, and i really needed to pay my rent. so i got myself a creditcard to see my networking and selling changes on Etsy!

for any more see: www.elvane.nl
thanks your time, and many good vibes from holland!

Re: Introduce yourself !

Hey Cris here....I love this style and my things in my store are more cute and functional.....I have been called lowbrow....as I love lowbrow I plan to create more things that I consider UNIBROW (bridging the gap between highbrow & low brow & everything between-contemporary underground art)

Re: Introduce yourself !

Hello, all. I'm Amber. I make jewelry, and I tend to veer more towards the unusual/odd in my style. This is one of my aliens:

I love making them, and I'm glad to be part of a team with like-minded people!

Re: Introduce yourself !

Hi there, I'm Tanya from Niagara Falls Ontario and was small town raised and fleed the small town judgement to The Falls back in my early twenties. I have been artys and creative all my life doodling on anything and everything, much to my parents protest and friends giggles. Needless to say my binders were always ... "interesting".

I latched onto the odd, werid and strange early in my teens flocking to anything outcasted or different then the "norm" like most girls ran to the boy bands and the traditional things. The more strange, freaky the more I will love it! I am also very laid back in accepting of people over looking their problems and often loving and supporting their quarkiness. I LOOOVE to make friends laugh and giggle even if it means putting my foot in my mouth or makes me look like a complete fool! I firmly believe that the world and especailly crafters & friends require and NEED to laugh more and so it's sort of just natural for me.

I have enjoyed the look and layout of Etsy for some time now, however as a result of being on a fixed budget and things exploding in life it's taken me time (and frayed nerves) to list what I have in order to test the market. I've learned that you can never stop advertisting and dropping your business cards - or at least I am any ways. lol

So far I love running a shop, the stress and hunt for vending oportunities around my area and $25 a table. Months after starting to do all this, it makes me proud and truely happy that I'm not at the whim of my anixety and depression where all that I have done and happy faces wouldn't have happened! I may stumble but I love all this! lol

Hello, I'm Zombree, I love Halloween and the creepy-crawlies. My art is inspired by everything around me. I just started making stuffed 'Zomnomonsters' that I'd love for you to check out. Here is my favorite, his name is Slug.

Re: Introduce yourself !

I'm Katie, I make sock monkeys, but my day job is a junk sculptor! yes I recycled thousands of broken toys and household items into crazy colourful sculptures and exhibit them around Ireland, and occasionally the rest of the world. I will try and get some of my latest creations that fit this team, into my shop soon, but meantime, to show I like this kind of stuff, heres a treasury I made today:

Hi, my name is Norola Morgan, and I'm an art and craftaholic! I love working with fabric and found objects to create quirky doll personas. I'm always finding interesting discarded items in the street that I drag home. I like to combine unique items just to see what I can come up with.

Re: Introduce yourself !

Hi - just opened my Etsy shop today! I turn people's old clothes into monsters. Everything's got that dorky homemade look. Sometimes I can make it through a whole doll without stabbing my finger with a pin. Sometimes.
