    Etsy Handmade Portrait

    17 Nov 2010

    Been reading this blog for a while and occasionally wondered what my voice sounds like? Well, here’s your opportunity to hear me wittering away while a video camera pokes around in my home and studio, on this Etsy Handmade Portraits video that the fab Ashka Wierzycka made for The Storque blog while she was out here in August.

    It was really fantastic to work with Ashka. I learned so much just watching her take footage over a couple of days, and I’m really delighted with what she’s put together in this little 3-minute portrait. Thanks to the Etsy team for sending her to visit me!

      I love the way the video flows there is something very warm about it and how strange to hear you speak Heather. I almost feel like we’ve met now.

      I loved this video! Your artwork is fantastic. May I post a picture of your teacup design in an article for Patch.com? In the article I mention how brilliant I thought it was that you turned boredom into such beauty.
