Hey Everyone! Thanks for stopping by my table at the APU Student Art Fair–I enjoyed chatting with y’all about my art and appreciate your support! ๐
It was a bit chaotic at times. The stand which I so lovingly worked on kept getting knocked down by, rather ironically, the wind (of course it was gonna be breezy during set-up… of course! XD). It was supposed to be a mock-up of an inner house scenario, with a small little couch (on the table, next to the incense sticks) and towering paintings above. Alas, the house tumbled down. But! Some wonderful people helped me deal with the stand (I guess you could say they were… they were… stand-up folks)–and it worked out in the end.
Anyhoo, some cool highlights from the table:
The incense holders got a lot of attention! Curious folks wondered if they were wristbands or bookmarks. While I firmly believe that pretty much anything can act as a bookmark (I once used a container lid as a placeholder, so these would be infinitely more stylish), they’re meant to be incense holders for aromatherapy ๐ I kept telling people to “spark one up”, which was admittedly hilarious, but lighting up an incense really is a nice way to spruce up a place and relax for a bit. I used to sell these on Etsy, but closed down the shop for various reasons. I might re-open the shop there, so stay tuned!
The bags were also cool to make and fun to feature, and I’ll probably make these available online some time in the future.
More highlights!
Thanks again to everyone who stopped by! Make sure to reach out for comments, questions or commissions–or just to say hello! You can also follow me on Instagram: @roawind
