  • Meet Stephanie Harvey of exit343designs

    Local silkscreen printer, Stephanie Harvey is an Art Star Craft Bazaar veteran.  We always love checking out her cute & colorful printed t-shirts, plushies, stationary, prints & more!  Learn more about her technique, the artists who inspire her & what she is listening to these days.  And be sure to see it all in person at Booth #18!

    The lovely Stephanie Harvey in her booth!

    Art Star: Did you go to art school?  If so, where did you study?
    Stephanie Harvey: Technically I didn’t go to “art” school, but I do have two fine arts degrees. I received my B.F.A. with concentrations in Printmaking and Photography from Rowan University in South Jersey. I also have my M.F.A. in Printmaking from Penn State University.

    AS:  What types of items will you be selling at the bazaar?
    SH: My booth features all silkscreen printed work, hand printed by me (with alittle bit of help from my studio cat, Buddy) in a workspace just outside of Philadelphia. I primarily make art prints and stationery, but also dabble with small plush creature pillows and tee shirts. Recently, I’ve begun crafting small watercolor illustrations that I sell as giclee prints, badges, and magnet sets. If you like bright colors, hand drawn type, and patterns, be sure to come check out my booth!

    AS:  How are your items made? Describe your process?
    SH: Everything starts with a drawing, on good old-fashioned paper. I sometimes use digital help to clean up or enlarge my drawings and make the layers to burn screens from. However, often times I consume many Sharpie opaque paint markers from hand drawing the layers. In silkscreen printing, every color is a different layer so the preparation can be really time consuming! After I make the screens, mix the inks, and trim the paper, I crank out each print- layer by layer. It’s a rewarding process, watching your work come to life in color one piece at a time.

    AS: Are you able to make your work full-time?  If not, what do you do for your day job?
    SH: I’m an artist/designer/freelance event photographer by night and weekend and a production assistant at a local screenprinting company by day. I’m continually striving to make the former my all-of-the-time by doing shows like Art Star Craft Bazaar, taking on freelance design projects, selling my work at brick & mortars, running an active blog, and more.

    AS: Who are some of your favorite artists?
    SH: I look to contemporary graphic and poster designers, many who do the same craft shows I vend at. I love the bold stylized illustrations of Charley Harper and the sweeping lines and muted colors of Alphonse Mucha.  Textile patterns, unique illustrations, and hand drawn type are all artistic components I’m drawn to.

    AS: What are you reading/listening to right now?
    SH: I’ve been in kind of a musical funk as of late, so I’ve turned in to a huge podcast fan. My favorites right now include: Adventures in Design by Mark from Hero and Billy from Delicious Design League (great for any artist + entrepreneur), WTF with Marc Maron, and Planet Money.

    AS:  Where would you like to see yourself and your art/craft business in the next 10 years?
    SH: In ten years, I simply hope to be my own full-time boss. I have many other short-term goals, which will hopefully get me to that point!

    AS: Are there any bazaar participants that you are excited to check out this year?
    SH: Of course!  Checking out other vendors’ work is half the fun.  I also try to feature all of the great work I see after each show on my blog, thehappysqueegee.com

    In no particular order, my 2013 must-sees include:

    Atelier Grafico – Gioconda was my neighbor last year and her booth was packed with children having a blast with her creative stamp sets!  I’m hoping to beat the rush of youngsters this year and see what new sets she has.

    Everyday Balloons – This talented screen printing duo from Pittsburgh also makes the majority of their prints the old school way – by starting with a drawing, not digital.  Even their business cards are tiny works of silkscreend art!  I always make it a point to stop in and see what new images they created.

    Laura Berger – I can’t even tell you how many cards of hers I’ve purchased at this point -too many!  Her quirky sense of humor shines in every piece she creates, making her one of my favorite illustrators and stationery creators.

    The Wind and The Sail – Laura is so incredibly talented!  You have to get to her booth early on to see her full stock of cuddly creatures.  Why?  Everyone else knows she’s so talented and buys up all her finely crafted (and adorable) plush!

    Yardsale Press – Bryan has print and badge dispensing vending machines.  Enough said.

  • Meet Renee D’Amico of Tadpole Creations

    Renee D’Amico of Tadpole Creations makes the most darling plush & appliqued bibs, onesies & more!  I especially love her little Russian Babushka Dolls & DIY Pirate Doll Kits.  Any one of her items would make a great gift for a baby shower or b-day party for a little one. Though I must say, I wouldn’t mind picking up a few of her plushies for myself – I’m young at heart! This will be Renee’s first Art Star Craft Bazaar & we are so happy to have her, so get to know her & visit her at the bazaar at her bright & colorful booth #43!

    Art Star:
    Did you go to art school?  If so, where did you study?
    Renee D’Amico:
    I attended University of the Arts and Indiana University of Pennsylvania.  I have a BS in Elementary Education with a minor in Fiber Arts.

    AS: What types of items will you be selling at the bazaar?
    RD: Sewn and appliqued baby goods as well as soft dolls and toys for the very small. I create primarily for little ones, however a grown up has been known to go home with a pirate or mermaid for themselves. New this season are DIY Pirate and Matryoshka Doll Kits.

    A selection of items by Tadpole Creations

    AS: What materials do you work with?
    RD: Primarily brightly colored cotton fabrics and threads, with stuffing and a bit of fabric paint thrown in at times.

    Trained as a painter, I work with fabrics and thread in a way similar to using paint and pencil, using larger shapes of colored fabric, adding outlining and detailing with machine stitched threads.

    Babushka Russian Matryoshka Cloth Doll


    AS:
    How are your items made? Describe your process.
    RD: My creations begin with a basic drawing on paper of a playful idea that I’ve been pondering for a while. When I’m happy with the initial design, I work with paper to create my own patterns and templates, folding and cutting until I find the right shapes.  Fabric selection comes next, with experimentation of different combinations until I get to that “ah-hah” moment when I have found the right fabrics to use.

    My favorite part of the construction is sitting down to sew at the machine and appliquing the different fabric elements together. I stitch with a variety of different patterns to complete the design with colored thread.

    Cloth Elephant Toys with Rattle

    AS: Are you able to make your work full-time?  If not, what do you do for your day job?
    RD:
    Tadpole Creations is a full time pursuit.

    AS: Who are some of your favorite artists?
    RD:
    I am drawn to primitive folk artists and Early American Art, whether it be a weather vane  painted sign, piece of pottery or portrait of a child.

    AS: What are you reading/listening to right now?
    RD: My teenage daughter playing the theme of “The Avengers” on her viola.

    Whale Plush Toy

     AS: Where would you like to see yourself and your art/craft business in the next 10 years?
    RD: That’s a great question, I am always thinking “okay what is the next step?” when it comes to Tadpole Creations. One goal is to have a separate studio and workspace, as I work out of a home based studio right now. I’d also love to be involved in some exclusive freelance design for a larger company in the future.

    Organic Gnome Dolls

     

    AS: Are there any bazaar participants that you are excited to check out this year?
    RD: The line up looks incredible! I am so honored to be included with this great group of craftspeople.   My desk is begging for a Cutesy but not Cutesy plush to keep me company while I do computer work. My daughters are really big fans of Inedible Jewelry, I am sure they will be adding to their collection.

  • Meet Julie Lange of On 3 Designs!

    Julie Lange with her bag colletion

    Next up in our series of Art Star Craft Bazaar Vendor Profiles is Philadelphia based textile artist/designer, Julie Lange of On 3 Designs.  Julie crafts beautiful clutches, bags and purses from her own screen printed fabric designs.  Visit her at the bazaar at booth #69!

    Art Star: Did you go to art school?  If so, where did you study?
    Julie Lange:
    Most recently I worked in Financial Services but I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a degree in Chemical Engineering.  I worked in the field for over 11 years in manufacturing providing engineering support to everything from Corelle dishware to TV parts to pharmaceuticals.  (If you stop by my booth, ask how many of these companies used a form of screen printing.  Seriously  :))

    AS: So where did you learn to do your craft?
    JL:
    I always had an interest in arts and crafts, taking classes on the side at local community colleges, etc.  I tried everything – drawing, painting, pottery and frankly, I hated sewing until I took a class as an adult while living in LA…lower Alabama.  Then I was hooked and so my addiction to fabric started.  More recently, I learned to screen print from Candy Depew at the Candy Coated Center and from Bill Brookover at Fleisher Art Memorial.   Screen printing fabrics to use in my sewing projects is my new passion.

    AS: What types of items will you be selling at the bazaar?
    JL: I will be selling handmade handbags and clutches.  I am introducing some new cross-body bags and jewelry made from fabric too.  About 60% of my collection right now is made from original, screen printed fabrics and sewn on the 3rd floor of my home, hence the name, On 3 Designs.

    AS: What materials do you work with?
    JL: I screen print using waterbased fabric inks on high quality quilting cottons, linens and sometimes denim to create all my items.  Since I LOVE fabric, I carefully select commercially made fabrics that compliment my original line of fabrics.  

    AS: How are your items made? Describe your process.
    JL: Each project starts differently.  Typically, I create an inspiration board from magazine clippings, or my personal photos.  (The pre-pinterest way!)   I save a lot of images that I like even when I don’t know what I am going to do with them – people, places, color combos, etc.

    If I am printing my own fabric, then, I plan and choose the best method to create the silk screen (stencil, photographic process, etc), often starting with hand sketches or scanned photographic images.  I hand screen print in my home studio or at Fleisher Art Memorial.

    Each bag is sewn by me using professional sewing techniques that I have learned over the last 18 years.  I use multiple layers of interfacings and interlinings to keep the shape of my clutches, even when you carry your cell phone and keys.

    new fabrics

     

    AS: Are you able to make your work full-time?  If not, what do you do for your day job?
    JL: Yes!  And I love it!  About a year ago, I transitioned from a fulltime corporate job to officially launch my business.  In addition to my core business, making handbags, I also teach fashion, sewing and textile design to adults and children at Main Line School Night, Chester County Night School and the Eilandarts Center.  Occassionally, I take requests for custom drapes and clothing too.  It’s been super exciting, a little stressful at times but always fun!   Big thanks to my husband and daughter for supporting me through my new endeavor!

    Julie with some of her students

    AS: Who are some of your favorite artists?
    JL: My favorite artist is Gustav Klimt, for both his simpler sketches as well as his more popular paintings of women emblazened with shapes, textures, many, many colors and golden metallics.  I would love to wear the garments these ladies are donning!

    Gustav Klimt

    AS: What are you reading/listening to right now? 
    JL:
    Read?  I am sewing ALL the time.  No time to read though I do have a guilty pleasure…watching Shark Tank on TV Friday eves!

    AS: Where would you like to see yourself and your art/craft business in the next 10 years? JL: I’d love to offer clothing items in addition to fashion accessories with a small team of employees helping me to grow the business in to more retail shops.

    Julie’s studio – on the third floor!

     

    AS: Are there any bazaar participants that you are excited to check out this year?
    JL: I am looking forward to seeing Once Lost Jewelry.  I was amazed last year by the re-use of materials, making each piece look interesting instead of just recycled.  I’d love to have Michelle make me something from vintage jewelry pieces I have in my collection from my grandparents.

     

     

  • Meet Ashley Landon of The Knotty Owl

    Next up in our series of Art Star Craft Bazaar Vendor Profiles is Ashley Landon of The Knotty Owl.  Hailing from Rochester NY, Ashley creates hand-cut jewelry (no laser cutting here!) made from local, reclaimed lumber.  Find her at the ASCB at Booth #93.

    Walnut and Cherry Chevron Necklace by The Knotty Owl

    Art Star: Did you go to art school?  If so, where did you study?
    Ashley Landon: Technically yes, I graduated from Brooklyn’s Pratt Institute for Industrial Design in 2011. I worked for the Fine Arts Department in the wood shop however, so I like to think I got the best of both worlds since most of my time was spent surrounded by fine artists.

    AS: What types of items will you be selling at the bazaar?
    AL:  I will be selling my hand-carved and painted wooden jewelry and adornments.

    AS: What materials do you work with?
    AL: I use found, salvaged, locally harvested, and otherwise locally purchased lumber. My favorite woods to work with are cherry, walnut, maple, redwood, and the fallen branches from a silver maple tree in my backyard. I assemble my pieces with sterling silver and brass chain.

    The Knotty Owl Studio


    AS:
    How are your items made? Describe your process.
    AL: All of my pieces are made from start to finish in my small wood shop and studio, conveniently located in my basement. Every wooden component starts as part of a rough piece of lumber, which I re-saw myself. I absolutely love the “analog” methods of creating my jewelry, and prefer to have hands-on control of every aspect of my process rather than using laser cutters. Once the wood is milled flat, I draw my rough shapes, and cut them out very carefully on a bandsaw. I use a belt sander and hand files to shape each piece, and finish the rest of the sanding by hand. I paint all of the designs on my pieces, apply the wood finish, and assemble the pieces into their final jewelry designs once they’re dry.

    AS: Are you able to make your work full-time?  If not, what do you do for your day job?
    AL: I’m lucky enough to call The Knotty Owl my full-time gig, doing the occasional wood-based commission job or furniture repair project on the side. I’m also part of a business partnership, Dichotomy Rochester, and we are preparing to open our first retail store this summer in Rochester, New York.

    Carved Raven Skull Pendants by The Knotty Owl

    AS: Who are some of your favorite artists?
    AL: My favorite artists/designers are the husband and wife duo Charles and Ray Eames. Their design principles have significantly informed my creative style, and they’re both incredibly inspiring on a personal level. I’m also and avid fan of Frank Lloyd Wright, and the fact that he so fully considered his designs from the architecture of each house, to the tableware that would adorn it’s interior. Other favorites are Hans Wegner and George Nakashima.

    AS: What are you reading/listening to right now?
    AL: I’m about halfway through Vonnegut’s Cat Cradle (for the second time), and have been switching back and forth between listening to The XX and every Modest Mouse album made before 2001.

    AS: Where would you like to see yourself and your art/craft business in the next 10 years?
    AL: I plan to eventually expand my wood shop into a space that could properly house a larger collection of tools, and possibly an assistant, to help me keep up with orders while I continually work on new designs. Being in sole control of every aspect of my little business (as many of us sole proprietors are) is so overwhelming at times, leaving very little mental stamina to keep producing new work, and I’d love so much to change that within the next year or two. My main goal is to help my father retire within the next year, as he is my part-time expert sander on the weekends, and we really enjoy working together. The process of starting this business has been such an incredible learning experience and blessing, and I’m content to continue planting the seeds of my business and helping it grow naturally. I’d also like to get back into furniture design and larger scale woodworking projects in the near future.

    Spirit Animal Brooches by The Knotty Owl


    AS:
    Are there any bazaar participants that you are excited to check out this year?
    AL: I’m extremely excited to finally see Horrible Adorables in person (I’ve loved their work on Etsy forever), and Twig Terrariums (I’m an obsessive collector of terrariums), but realistically I’ve been to every vendor’s website over the past week and am thrilled to be in the presence of all of them next month!

  • Meet Diane Koss of Cutesy but Not Cutesy

    We will be posting Art Star Craft Bazaar Vendor profiles pretty regularly now through the big weekend – May 11th & 12th!  First up is Cutesy but Not Cutesy.  Meet the maker behind the brand – Diane Koss.

    Art Star: Did you go to art school?  If so, where did you study?
    Diane Koss:
    I started out as a psychology and biology major at The College of New Jersey in Ewing, NJ.  That only lasted about one semester until I switched over to be a Fine Arts Major with concentrations in metalsmithing, photography, and performance art.  Unfortunately, there were no classes in monster-making, that came later!

    Cutesy but not Cutesy also offers silkscreened monster T’s for All Ages!

    AS: What types of items will you be selling at the bazaar?
    DK:
    This year I will be selling my hand-stitched furry monster plush along with fur-lined monster hoodies with horns for infants through adults.  I also have screen-printed t-shirts for kid’s and adults, hand-painted dishware, and a brand new line of monster plush called The Grumpsters!

    A couple of Diane’s “Grumpsters”

    AS: How are your items made? Describe your process.
    DK:
    All of my traditional monsters are hand-stitched without machines. I usually work in an assembly line-like system where I cut them out all at once, then stitch all of the bodies, then stuff them all, and then add the face, horns, and bird to each one to give them their own personality.  I use black thread in order to highlight each stitch that I make, I think it gives them more character and adds to the handmade feel of them. The hoodies and The Grumpsters are all individually sewn on my workhorse of a sewing machine.  The Grumpsters have added a whole new level of excitement for my process since I get to piece together their little outfits before stitching them all together!

    Cutesy but not Cutesy HQs – where the magic happens!

    AS: Are you able to make your work full-time?  If not, what do you do for your day job?
    DK:
    I have been a full time monster-maker for almost 5 years now. It’s been a very long journey as I learn more and more about what works for my business and for me, as an artist.  But in the end, the pay off at the end of each year of knowing that I’m able to support myself with my own two hands and a needle and thread is worth every bit of struggle I face.

    Diane makes adorable monster hoodies for all ages!!

    AS: Who are some of your favorite artists?
    DK:
    I am completely obsessed with and inspired by Louise Evans of Felt Mistress. Her work never ceases to amaze me. I also love the art of Washington based Illustrator Justin Hillgrove. His monster illustrations are just so incredible.  I also had the opportunity of running into Austin based illustrator Graham Franciose while at a show in Austin a few years ago and I have been completely smitten with his work ever since.

    “Soaring” by Justin Hillgrove, acrylic on canvas

    AS: What are you reading/listening to right now?
    DK:
    I just started reading “At Home: A Short History of Private Life” by Bill Bryson, one of my favorite authors. And I just started re-watching the entire series of “Felicity” on netflix while I work.

    This guy may just make an appearance at the bazaar!!

    AS: Where would you like to see yourself and your art/craft business in the next 10 years?
    DK:
    Ideally, there would be a few employees in a well-organized, sun-drenched warehouse space shipping out monsters to all corners of the world. And possibly a store front.

    AS: Are there any bazaar participants that you are excited to check out this year?
    DK:
    Gosh, do I have to choose?! I can’t wait to see them all! I must admit, though, I always love seeing the art of Laura Berger and I might have to finally snag a piece from Horrible Adorables for my new home!


     Thanks Diane for sharing this with us!  Visit her at the Art Star Craft Bazaar (booth # coming soon!) on May 11th & 12th or her Etsy page.  Check out the rest of the amazing vendors selling at this year’s bazaar here.

  • Andrew Zangerle’s Top 5 ASCB Picks

    We have been showing work by Andrew Zangerle (The Maple Ridge)at Art Star for a few years now and he has participated in our bazaar for several.  We consider him a member of our Art Star family at this point.  We asked him to choose 5 of the Spring Art Star Craft Bazaar vendors that he is most excited to check out.  Here are his picks:

    Going through this year’s vendor list for the Bazaar with the intent to high-light five that stand out to me was a lot harder than I thought. This is going to be an incredible year with some really amazing crafters. Here’s my list:


    1. Fabric Horse. Fabric Horse makes (among other great things) these amazing Utility Belts! I seriously need one of these. It’s like a Fanny-pack and a Tool Belt had a baby…and that baby made you look like a Superhero. Why wouldn’t you want to have one of these?

     2. Buffalo Craft Company. I believe this is Buffalo Craft Company’s first time showing in Philadelphia. Mark and Katie are really nice and incredibly talented people. The Cuff bracelets are definitely my favorite item of theirs. If I were a woman I’d want several.

     3. The 50/50 Company. This print by The 50/50 company really stood out to me because I love patterns and the aesthetic qualities of the United States. They have a bunch of other prints and t-shirts. I know a lot of the time it’s hard to find a gift for a guy at a craft show so I’d highly recommend you check out The 50/50 Company.

     4. Horrible Adorables. The taxidermied felt creatures from Horrible Adorables are amazing. They all have so much personality and charm. They also come in a bunch of different sizes, too!  You get the sense that these creatures aren’t exactly mounted as trophies for your wall, but are in fact being displayed in their natural state. That they’re lively and playful and know magic…weird magic.

     5. Twig Terrariums.  The summer is just around the corner and I’ve been getting really excited about having plants around again. The great thing about Twig Terrariums is that they not only have ready-made terrariums you can pick up, but also have an assortment of kits so you can have fun creating your very own unique environment. They all look amazing.

    Like I said–it was really hard for me to narrow it all down to just five, but I hope this helps you get pumped for this year’s Bazaar! And I know that all you true craft show attendees are going to hit up every vendor booth at Penn’s Landing. (don’t forget to stop by and say hello to me, too!)

    Special thanks to Andrew for taking the time to share his favorite vendors with us!  Please check out our selection of The Maple Ridge’s items here or visit his Etsy page.  Check out our full Vendor Line-Up – what are your favorites?

    And look out for more picks from our friends soon!

  • Hi! Meet Kelly!

    I can’t say enough how much I love my job!  I get to do fun things like photo shoots with my friends!  What girl wouldn’t love that? The gorgeous Kelly Kozma agreed to model our new collection of clothing & I couldn’t be happier with the results.

    Kelly is the woman behind KKnits, the really cool hand knit necklace/cowls that you may have seen at Art Star.   We have a good selection of different colors and styles in stock now.  They make a great statement piece.  Find out more about KKnits here.

    She also creates beautiful mixed media pieces on paper that incorporates hand drawings with embroidery.  She recently had a solo exhibition of this work at the Delaware Center for Contemporary Arts, which is so impressive! You can view her body of work here.

    Anyway, I wanted to introduce you all to this amazing lady.  She will be helping us in the shop from time to time as we start getting busy with our bazaar prep, so you’ll be seeing more of her.  I had so much fun dressing her up & taking her photo – she’s a natural model!

  • An Interview with Andrea Courchene of Paper Sparrow

    Andrea Courchene, the artist behind Paper Sparrow

    Art Star: Tell us a bit about your work.  What inspires your imagery?
    Andrea Courchene:  As an artist and musician I am divided between two creative worlds. My process of creating art is intrinsically like refining a passage of music through practice, writing original pieces, or listening to my favorite recordings–it is quite involved. I have always found a special interest in the connections between the sound of music and visual art. Performing music inspires my art with an appreciation for the audience as well; people of all ages can find an instrument, an animal, or a scene which may capture their imagination.  I’m also inspired by vintage illustrations, nature and living in New York City.

    AS:  Are you formally trained? If so, where did you study?
    AC:  My formal education is in music.  I have a bachelors and master’s degree in music.  I’ve always loved creating art as a hobby as far back as elementary school.  I’ve taken a few art classes at both my undergraduate college as well as in graduate school.  I recently completed two courses at Columbia University: one in painting and the other, lithography.  I’m also starting an etching class there this Spring.

    Andrea working on a lithograph

    AS: Are you originally from New York?  What are some of your favorite places in NYC to go for inspiration?
    AC:  I was born in England and immigrated to Florida with my family when I was in high school.  Since then I’ve been lucky to travel around and have recently lived in Chicago, Portland, Oregon, and am now based in New York City.   New York City is a wonderfully cosmopolitan city but I find that I am most inspired by my neighborhood on the Upper West Side of Manhattan which is always bustling and has the added advantage of two great, enormous city parks on each side: Riverside and Central Park.

    poster by Paper Sparrow

    AS: Are you able to focus on your work full time?  Do you have a day job?  Any employees?
    AC:  Paper-Sparrow is currently my full-time work.  I am fortunate to be able to supplement my income with freelance performance and teaching music.  I do get a lot of support and an extra pair of hands for shipping packages from my partner, Paul, who is also a cellist.

    AS: What materials do you use for the original illustrations?
    AC: It varies from piece to piece.  I tend to gravitate towards paint: gouache, watercolors and acrylics with added textures and backgrounds.  Other times I simply draw in pen and ink and digitally manipulate the images in photoshop and illustrator.


    AS: Any new and exciting projects in the works?
    AC:  This year I’m focusing on expanding my line of greeting cards and taking on more freelance opportunities.

    AS: Aside from Etsy & Art Star, where else do you sell/show your work?
    AC:  I tend to sell at a few craft fairs every year in the summers and the holiday season.  I also wholesale my cards to a number of boutiques and stores across the US and to a few in Australia.

    “Smoky Mountain Gypsy Jazz” by Paper Sparrow

    AS:  Who are some of your favorite artists/illustrators?
    AC:  I have pretty eclectic taste but I particularly love art of the bauhaus movement and mid-century design.  I love scouring vintage children’s books for illustrations by Martin and Alice Provensen, M. Sasek, Sandy Hoffman, Aliki Brandenberg and Brian Wildsmith.

    AS: What music are you listening to these days?
    AC: We always have music playing in our apartment.  You can bet on lots of classical and chamber music, jazz, Django Reinhardt and some 60s pop.
