I absolutley love this Etsy shop!  Every little thing for sale is a treasure!

I am so tempted to buy one of their cute brooches!

Catia Chen

I love the whimsical and dreamlike paintings of Catie Chen.  I also really like the design of her website and seeing how she incorporated her beautiful style and aspects of her paintings into different parts of her website.  Have fun browsing through her gallery and also her shop!

I love Paperedtogether!

Paperedtogether is an Etsy shop of beautifully designed cards and stationary. The products are printed onto high quality paper, yet almost look to be letterpressed. I especially love the old fashioned styles and the Valentines cards that are for sale right now are soo cute! I’m having trouble deciding which ones I want!

Utility Canvas

The bags made by Utility Canvas are quite spendy but I love their simple construction and durability! They also make some adorable children’s clothes.

Anne Davies

Oh! I just found out about this UK artist, and I love her work so much! Her website is so clean and well designed, a perfect setting for all of her complex acrylic paintings and ink drawings. She is selling only a couple of her paintings in her Etsy shop but I recommend visting her website for a better look at her accumulated work. (and she also sells some of her paintins on her website.)

I want to live in Anne Davies’ world!

Alicia Bock. photography

Alicia Bock is a photographer from Oregon. I love looking through her photography because the subjects are so varied and interesting. A lot of her images have been digitally altered in some way, which gives them a dreamlike quality. She manages to perfectly capture a season or feeling in a single image and I really admire that. She sells her photography on her website and also in her Etsy store. You can also check out her beautiful blog here, where she posts a lot of her photography.

You can also see her photos on Flickr.

Palindrome Press

etsy shop: Artistic Nature

Feeldesign creates a variety of beautiful and useful objects that are inspired by the forms, colors, and textures of nature. Her felt bags are all so unique and inspiring and she also creates home objects such as rugs, pillows and surreal luminaires called ‘Nature Lamps’, which are transparent acrylic boxes filled with organic objects such as leaves and milkweed. One of the things that blew me away about her creations, is her sense for creating textures that you just want to touch. Seriously, you must check out her shop!

Hello!

My name is Jenn and I have decided to start a blog that showcases the work of a variety of different artisans that I discover through word of mouth, online searching, or traveling and everyday exploring. I am an avid, daily blog reader, yet I have not found a blog that has been solely dedicated to getting the word out about the work of independent artists. This blog can be used as inspiration for your own creative impulses and possibly consumer impulses as well! My main goal is to use my love (and possible obsession) of art and craft in order to support and give recognition to those who are following their own paths and sharing their amazing talents.

Thanks for stopping by!
