Etsy Feature: ♥Cutiepie Company♥

Etsy Feature: ♥Cutiepie Company♥

Shop Name: Cutiepie Company

What do you make? I make screenprinted notecards, journals, and art prints.

How did you first pick up your craft? I have been doing mixed media and collage for a long time, and have been interested in screenprinting for a while as well. I learned about the Gocco (the compact and easy to master Japanese screenprinting system) through Etsy, actually. I knew instantly that this was something I had to do. It is a really simple system. I combined my new skill with my love for card-making, and Cutiepie Company was born (I have always loved making cards for friends and family).

What are you inspired by? Beauty. I am really inspired by color, light, vintage ephemera, old photographs, food, dusty books, children, my dog, the work of artists Rauschenberg and Cornell, and all the amazing work I see on Etsy! Every day I find something new to love and be inspired by.

Tell me about yourself: Eek! I'm 29, live in Manhattan with my sweet beagle Hunter, and am a motion picture Camera Assistant by trade.

Other etsy shops you love: Wow, the list is endless!

Advice for fellow artists/crafters? My advice would be to do what you love. If you are thinking of opening up a shop on Etsy, definitely go for it, and keep at it. Art and craft is really so subjective, and if you are making something you love, chances are there are other people out there that will love it too. If you put your heart into it, it shows.
