Vintage Heaven



Wednesday...Gratitude!

No.12 Here is today's collection of my favourite handmade items, from the kind artists that have featured some of my work in the past week!


TREASURIES AND FEATURES



The above rich blue treasury was curated by Etsy seller KarmaRox which includes a bunch of amazing art and photography from other Etsy artists. It was lovely to know that my "Paw Prints" print had been included in the collection. KarmaRox's store is full of gorgeous vintage accessories, jewelry and shoes of which the above childs glasses are one of my favourites.


Art2ArtColorado on Etsy created a super hot treasury full of reds, blacks and blues that my "Lust" print was a part of. Art2Art's store is one of my favourites offering a fabulous selection of paintings, abstractions and digital works like the above print "The Seer". I just love this store!

So That's it I think for this week. I hope I havent left anyone out... if I have I'll pop you into next weeks feature :)

October54Gallery On Etsy



Tuesday - BESTeam Mosaic
weekly shoutout to the dedicated workers that like to help other handmade artists...

October54Gallery on Etsy... Today's dedicated featurer of other Etsy artists from the Etsy BESTeam is Anne of October54Gallery on Etsy. She is also a fellow POE Team member, being a very talented photographer and I have to say I am so impressed by her style of photography. Be it Fine Art or Abstract in form, October54 knows how to capture the beauty in nature or our urban surroundings. It is the use of light and shadow that has impressed me the most in the collection of monotoned photographs listed in their Etsy shop, that is captured in such a way it makes the photo's seem extremely zen and peaceful to me! She describes herself as being a proud member of the community of Etsy, and a lifelong passionate artist that likes to look at the world with ever changing perception. A true artist in the works I'd say, her work is beautiful.
I have included 6 of my favourites from her store in the mosaic below but i must insist that there is so much that I would have loved to have included, so it's well worth visiting this store to see what else is available!
