Featured Artist: Frozen Crafts

"Making clay miniatures and sculptures is one of the hobbies that I could never get enough of. I love all crafts in general... Making something handmade is relaxing and fun at the same time!
Because of that, I decided to start a little business. Etsy seemed like the best place to start out. And so far this shop stuff has been going great!
This will be a load of help even later in life, when I have to pay for studies, rent and so on. Not only is crafting fun, it also puts some money in my pocket! And well, let's be honest here, who doesn't like that"

Where do you find your inspiration? Other artists, mostly on deviantArt. I really admire some of their work, decided to try my own afterwards.

When did you start your shop?

May 2010

Is this your only job?

No, I work full time as a school secretary at a high school

When did you realize you had this talent?

I have always dabbled in arts and crafts, but never settled on a specfic discipline until I asked an artist friend to set a stone I had. He asked if I knew what wire wrapping was and

when I said, "no" he told me to look it up on the internet and handed me some pliers! I was hooked.

Where do you find your inspiration?
The stones seem to dictate the design and I have always loved pretty rocks. I can't seem to walk across a parking lot without checking the ground for pretty stones.

Who has been the most supportive of your work?

My husband has been amazing! He will cook dinner and do laundry so I have time to work on jewelry when we get home from work. There is no way I could do this without him.

What is one thing you would like to accomplish that you haven't yet?
I keep discovering new techniques that I want to learn. I started working with wire and am now doing more with metal sheet and every time I walk by a gallery I see more techniques I want to learn.

What are your words to live by or favorite quote?

"Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways,totally worn out, with a glass of champagne in one hand and a box of

chocolate in the other screaming, "Woo-Hoo! What a ride!"and

In the words of John Wayne, "Courage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway!"
