'Geek Girls Of Etsy' Spotlight on FDart Studio!



It's been a hot one here this week on the east coast,we saw temps in the mid 90's all week with heat indexes in the 100's. It was a great week to be on vacation,though. The kiddo and I hit the beach, festivals,took in a few movies ('Despicable Me 2': very cute. Loved the minions.' Pacific Rim': everything a giant monster movie should be.Loved it!)
All good things must end, though and it's back to the daily grind tomorrow--hopefully with lower temperatures. What makes it bearable is the next vacation is only 28 days away :)

On to our 'Geek Girls Of Etsy' Spotlight of the day. Today we shine the light on an awesome father/daughter team,Floro Dery and Flor Dery who have combined into one awesome,artistic Etsy shop!

Here is their shop bio:

Floro Dery is an artist who has worked in animation for over 20 years. His work includes original concept designer for The Transformers: The Movie, illustrator for the syndicated Sunday Spider-Man with Stan Lee, and storyboard artist for the Spider-Man: The Animated Series.


    Flor Dery is the daughter of Floro Dery. She is a major fan of anime and prefers to draw in anime style. Her art and crafts are a side hobby from her full time profession. Her work includes fan art, pins, magnets, handwoven bracelets, nail art, and keychains.
    It is apparent that artistic talent runs deep in this family. Here are just a few of the awesome items in their shop.
    This hand-painted pendant is double-sided. Here is the reverse side:
    So many great beaded bracelets, but this is my favorite :)
    There are so many great items in this shop--be sure to go check them out!

    New 'Geek Girls Of Etsy' Spotlight on Crystalcat1989!

    Today's feature shines the spotlight on our own 'Geek Girls Of Etsy' team captain, Crystalcat1989,a.k.a. Crystal Simpson!

    Here is Crystal's Etsy bio:
    Who am I? I am a creative, fun loving geek. I love to read whether its a book, comic or manga. I also love video games, role playing games (DND), and board games. Since I was young I always loved doing crafts. Over the years I have learned to knit, crochet, cross-stitch, rug hooking, and some bead work. Everything I sell at this store is made by me and I hope that you enjoy my creations as much as I did making them.


    I have a huge soft spot for needle-felted sculptures,and Pokemon...and when I saw this Jigglypuff it was love at first sight...



    and THIS...most adorable Dalek ever!


    Her bangle style,crocodile stitch cuffs are lovely and she hand spins her own wool to fabulous effect!
    Love them.


    Crystal also does some great cross stitch. I am a huge Pixie fan.
    She had a lot of other choices listed as well.
