I want to share my joy with everyone here! I found Etsy and my life changed forever. Never until this moment had I imagined that I could earn my income from my dreams, but now with Etsy it became a reality and my family and I are real happy about it. We are artists and create our works impulsively inspired by the small events of life and dreams skipping through our minds and presenting themselves in our paintings without thinking about where and how we can show and sell their works. A huge thank you the wonderful team of Etsy and the possibility that they have presented to us. We created a few stores there and they all found their place on the art prints market.
I mean all who are just starting or those who do not yet good sellers online: Do not give up! There is A PLACE FOR ALL! Work, perseverance and ingenuity are three keys that will bring success and creative realization of each of you whether you sell or buy art, posters or other handmade gifts. Etsy is the best place to start, but you can also sell your art on e-bay or other popular websites, or you can make your own web store like mine.

Sometimes a store that sells well can suddenly stop and sunk into oblivion, and the wall art in it gets covered with heavy dust, but new efforts lengthy discussions within the family and hard work, and not after long the art prints store stands up again and keeps going.

Sometimes the language barrier creates a problem for us to communicate with clients, other artists and colleagues, but they are all nice and helpful, conquered by the charm of art inspired by the wonderful spirit that hovers in every corner of the site that we feel cozy and warm as in our own home filled with wonderful friends.

Now that we have crated our little company of nine stores on Etsy after only a year later I started my own website which is gaining more and more popularity every day, you can still find me on Etsy. I just hope this dream does not end ever and more people can experience the magical world that Etsy with our help created for team ! Thank you friends! We are eternally grateful for your tireless work.

Recently we moved our address to Ripoll, a small town near Barcelona. I would like to share my first impressions with you…
Ripoll barely numbers 11 000 residents and it is situated in a picturesque site at the foot of the Pyrenees, at a distance of 100 km from Barcelona and 80 km from Andora, not far from the French border. Its architecture is extremely colorful, with its stone houses typical for the Pyrenees and big richly decorated buildings dating back to the late 19th and early 20th century. There is a monastery right in the center of the small town, which looks more like a fortress with its 30 meters high stone walls and loop-holed turret with towering over the town and providing an excellent view of the district as a whole. Ripoll is the meeting point of 2 mountainous rivers, their crystal clear water congested with trout that can be seen from the bridges, often impressive in size. The local authorities take perfect care of public order and cleanliness. A lively local market is opened downtown every Saturday, where producers from nearby farms bring their home-made wine, jams, sausages, meat, herbs… a century-long tradition making this otherwise peaceful place full of life and spirit.
