Finders Keepers was a cool adventure for me but one vendor stood out from the crowd in a very clever but understated way. Cross stitch into metal jewelery bracelets brooches and rings by Caro Baertling, check it out ....
Photos from the Sydney Carriageworks design market Finders Keepers This is just set up time before the punters got to drink and shop.... plenty of fabric stuff, fashion, weird creature sculptures, and bad words on plates....
Sydney here I come..... Flying out ridiculously early tomorrow to the Lucky country and hope some of that luck will rub off on me at the Finders Keepers market.... Back in town on the 8th so time to get lots of goodies ready for Kraftbomb on Dec 20th!! So DON'T leave Auckland town too early or you will miss out on a Trixie Christmas!
I've always made stuff and wanted to be an artist from the age of 14.I made my way to Art School in the late 80s and graduated with a BFA, majoring in Sculpture. After a short exhibiting career,I quickly discovered being a full time artist doesn't pay the bills, so went the commercial route.
I've worked in graphic design, audio visual and freelance set design as well as garden design and maintenance.In the mid 90s
my boyfriend and I got married at City Hall in Manhattan New York. We eloped actually as no-one knew until we were back home.I have two children, a boy Jasper and a girl Madison,named after Madison Avenue.
