"Art is not what you see but what you make others see" Edgar Degas 1834-1917
I'm compelled to create - art & craft items, I enjoy the diversity.
Mass produced items can be yawn-inspiring! Handmade objects offer something to cherish - starting with materials, the maker and extending to the buyer. Ultimately you are virtuous for supporting a local artisan - your hard-earned cash is supporting a individual creator's work,which invaluable. This is why I sell & buy handmade.
