Hello everyone!  As a teen, I moved to NYC and while in high school was awarded a summer scholarship to study Fine Art at Parsons School of Design.  Circumstances changed for me and I ended up moving back to my hometown, Springfield, Virginia, where I worked as a freelance graphic artist for a number of years.  I moved to Austin, TX in 2005, continuing to freelance while raising my boys and caring for my Nana full time.  A few years later a friend urged me to apply for a Sales Management position with White Lodging in the hospitality industry, and I ended up  with a 150 room Fairfield Inn and Suites and assisted with sales at a 145 room Courtyard as well.  It was such a great experience and I am so grateful for the opportunity but I felt the creative side of me slipping away.  A few years ago I left the corporate world and traded in my suits for work boots and moved to the country.  My husband and I live on the side of a mountain near a tiny town with no stoplights surrounded by views of the Sangre de Cristos on Trinchera Ranch in Southern Colorado.  I am so thankful that I can run my shop, Sage Ranch Company, full time, and am eager to expand from making picture frames into home decor that enables me to utilize my art background.  I look forward to working with or supporting all of you in some capacity!

My name is Eric, and I grew up in the small town of LaFayette located in Central New York. One of the things I remember growing up was that Pulaski New York always seemed to be mentioned in the local Syracuse weather. Then one day I found myself in Graduate School at the Savannah College of Art and Design and living off of Pulaski Square. This sparked my curiosity and I took the opportunity to learn a little about Pulaski and his contribution to the American Revolution. Several years after graduating, I found myself working in Washington DC. Imagine my pleasant surprise when I walked down the hill from the Metro Center Station and what I see but a statue dedicated to Kasmir Pulaski. This was the spark that started a long-term project where I explore the collective history of the American People thru the monuments and memorials found throughout Washington DC. This monument to Pulaski was not only the impetus of this project but also the first image. You can find this image available in my Etsy Store. The images for this project are shot using a LensBaby 3G  lens which allows me to control the plane of focus and create images that reflect a sense of memory. Please take a moment to explore my store.

Hi! My name is Deborah. I've been painting and sculpting my entire life. I earned my BFA from Parsons School of Design in NYC and after many years of making my somewhat ethereal darkly themed, contemporary work; exhibiting yet making no money, I decided to start a shop doing pet portraits. I still make and exhibit my own work when I can but the business has really kept me busy locally. My sales in the etsy shop have been sporadic however and I'm not sure why. Help!

Hi everyone, this is Monjuree. I am a self-taught artist, oil painting is my main medium love to paint whatever I see around me. In my painting journey, I did couple of solo and group art exhibitions which inspired me to open an online store so I can share my painting with the world. I’ve open an Etsy store about a year ago haven’t made many sales though but I am still hopeful:)  In my free time I do photography, adventures, driving and by profession, I am a passionate designer. You can visit my store here.

[TreeHuggersStudio]

Hello, Mike and everyone in the group, my name is Sonia and I am originally from Romania.

I'm new to Etsy so a lot to improve on, which is a bit difficult since I'm in a full-time job role and then full-time PhD studying, working with women affected by endometrial cancer. However, I am grateful that both my academic and personal interests mean that a lot of my designs are mental health oriented. I also love sustainable fashion, environmental causes and fair animal treatment, so you'll see those types of design in there too. 

 Nice to meet everyone

Hello everyone,
I was born in Istanbul, Turkey. I really found myself with Art, which I met in 2008. Art's freedom, passion, courage and diversity impressed me a lot. I also got my bachelor's degree related to my art education. I have been continuing the production part, which is the most beautiful aspect of art, since 2008. Now I live alone in my house in Eskişehir, which I use as a workshop. And I would like to share the works I have produced with you, dear art lovers. You can comment on my works. Stay with art.

Greetings to everyone from Turkey, I am Emrah Yücel, selling Wooden Folding Camping-Picnic Table. I print the memories of your dreams on these folding tables that I created with UV technology. Isn't it nice But I've never had any sales. I joined the ETSY platform 2 months ago. Sorry for my English. I believe one day someone will buy it!

[SongbirdHut]

Bu gruptaki herkese selamlar. Sanat eserinizi satmak için en iyi dileklerimle. Ben de yeniyim ve hala dükkanı kuruyorum. Google Ads'de reklam vermek ve satış yapıp yapamayacaklarını belirlemek niyetindeyim.

[DigitalSynthesis]

Hi Emrah Yücel, 

You have a very original idea for transferring memories to table tops. I like how you tailored what you are good at into something customizable and unique in a way to each and every potential buyer. 

Do the table tops have any kind of protective layer over them after the image has been transferred to preserve these precious memories? I wonder what a clear epoxy resin finish might look like.
