Hello! My name is Marissa and I am a graphic designer by day. As much as I love working on the computer I still love to go back to the basics of pen/brush on paper. I love to do water color paintings and have been turning some of them into necklaces and have been dabbling in other mediums and crafts as well during my "spare time".

I grew up in the Sawtooth mountains along the Salmon river and am a major nature, outdoorsy buff. I think my artwork style reflects that ;)

I'm sure as many of you do, I have a major appreciation for all types and styles of art and am excited to be apart of this group!

Hiya,

I just joined. I paint portraits mostly, in watercolor and oil. My shop is here https://www.etsy.com/shop/koalarazorclock. I do realistic paintings from photos but I'd like to learn to loosen up a little, maybe do some kid-themed paintings.

So, hello and thanks!

Hello!
I have just reopened my shop in the beginning of the month.
I love painting with watercolour or pencil and taking photos beautiful moments the way I see them.
I have been painting since I was 3 year old. As I grew up I have become a web designer for my livelihood and a painter for my soul.
You are welcome to visit at my shop!
Thanks,
Ronit from Ronit Geller Art

Hello fellow watercolorists!

I just joined Etsy about a month ago and I am excited to now offer prints of my watercolor paintings. I studied art in college and I have a BFA in Painting, but they didn't teach watercolors at my university so I've explored the medium on my own time.

Landscapes are my favorite subject, and I also enjoy depicting botanical and wildlife subjects. Please feel free to visit my shop to have a look!

Aside from watercolours I love drawing with ink pen and pencil and sometime do mixed media paintings. I like my painting to reflect a joy of life and celebration of Mother Nature and beauty.

Hi there! I’m Andriy or just Andy.

https://www.catchsketch.etsy.com

I’m a self-taught painter who don't have any formal education in art. But it's not a bad thing because I paint my artworks organically without stereotypes. Every drawing tells me a story. So I'm in the unexplored country that opens the magic secrets to me. Yes, it’s the real Neverland! And I guess – Art chooses me.

I use the highest grade materials available for my originals and art prints, the finest papers.

I'm happy to do the next things:

- Free Custom Orders
- Custom Home Portraits
- Black and White Ink/Wash Paintings
- Watercolor Paintings

Hope you will find something you might appreciate in this shop.

Thank you, Andriy…

Hi everyone,

my name is María, and I live in Spain.

I lost my job when my son was born with a congenital malformation which required 24-hours care. After years of hard working, I then found myself turned into a stay-at-home mum, something I had never thought of becoming.

I started painting a while later, and I found out that I loved it. I´ve been painting watercolors on and off for some time, but I´m new to Etsy.

I hope those of you with steady sales can help me with the selling side of my "new career".

I´d be honored to receive tips for improving my painting from other artists.

Happy Christmas!!

Hi everyone!

Really excited/happy/nervous about finally opening a shop on Etsy for my paintings! I paint almost everything, using watercolors, but I've recently decided to start painting cute little bookmarks. Painting gives me joy and an escape from stress.
