When I was a child, I loved painting. Unfortunately, I am weak in this. I cannot draw the image in my mind onto paper.
Laura creates great painting and sell them in various web sites include Etsy. My favorite is the painting on Chihuahua.

4. When did you start selling handmade ?
When I was in high school. My first successful sale was a hand painted sweatshirt and from there I received more orders for custom t-shirts created from photos.
5. How did you start selling handmade ?
Just seemed to happen on its own. I have been selling hand painted t-shirts, sweatshirts, shoes and custom pet portraits ever since I can remember. I am now a full time artist and rely on my art sales to live.
6. Why do you like crafting ?
Because it is something that truly comes from the heart and soul. How wonderful is it to receive a custom painting or handmade item from a loved one or even ordering one for yourself? These are the kind of things people treasure forever...There is no substitute for a handmade, one of a kind gift!

I have alot of favorites because everything I create, I truly LOVE! But on the top of my list is "END OF THE AGES" & "BULLDOG IN A BOG"
8. Do you sell offline ? If yes, where ?
I tried selling offline but it actually cost so much more to rent a space and set up your products, that I would rather sell online.
9. Do you buy handmade ? What are your favorite stores ?
I LOVE HANDMADE GIFTS!!! I just joined ETSY but I would love to buy products from Studiomusings, Piddies, Lizardsjewerly, OMG I could go on forever. I truly think the Etsy Artists are the best at their crafts..better than anywhere I have ever been to or seen in my life!

I really wanted to save it for my retirement, but with the economy of today..I have to sell all my originals....But as long as I sell them on ETSY, I will be happy because I know that whomever buys it will truly love it. I also OFFER **ALCHEMY**On occasion I take orders for Pet Portraits and Custom Made Artwork to match any decor. Email me to check my availability for custom work.
