Wednesday Artist Profile

So, I am attempting to start a new series here on my little blog... I thought I'd find an Etsy person to profile each week and do a little write-up.

First up, is the lovely Vicky, of The Jade Poppy. Check out this pendant (I really love it):

Isn't that lovely?

The neat thing is - Vicky is an Etsy newbie, but I know her because she has the studio next to mine at Western Avenue Studios in Lowell! She has been incredibly kind and helpful (including giving Carlos and I great advice on how to finish that floor...). She sells/creates gorgeous original paintings - abstract landscapes - in her WAS studio, and I'm hoping she'll post some of them in her Etsy shop. But in the meantime, I love the things she does have listed!

Really like her pendants, like this one, too:


It would go really nicely with a zippy pouch made of fabric with an Asian theme that I got from another Etsy seller (SmittenOriginals) ...

OK, last but not least, I *adore* these earrings:


I was seriously going to buy these. But somebody beat me to the punch - argh! Congrats to Vicky on the sale, but - argh! LOL!

Hmmm, maybe she'll have some more on Saturday - which is Open Studios day at Western Avenue Studios! If you're in the area (Lowell, Massachusetts, northwest of Boston), please stop by and meet Vicky (and me, lol, and 100+ other artists) in person.

Next week, I'm going to be profiling somebody from the EtsyFAST street team (Fiber Arts), assuming she gives me permission. :)
