Maine Team Monday - Indigo Crow

I had to skip last week because I did not have internet access. Sorry! This weeks Creative find is Indigo Crow of etsy aka Kirsten. Kirsten works in several different mediums of clay and linoleum prints with a bit of jewelry thrown in here and there. I especially love her block prints. But then again there are those lovely tiles or plates to create a wonderful backsplash or other accent area in the home.



1. Would you please share some brief details about you such as location, upbringing, school etc? I live in a small house on a lake in southern Maine. I grew up in Northern Maine where I was inspired by nature and the beauty of animals, and my surroundings. I always loved art so I went to college and received a bachelors of fine art degree.

2. What motivates your creativity? Any interesting bits of info about your process (like you only work in your studio to Liberace music)? My creativity is motivated mainly by nature. It inspires me everyday. Seeing other artists work also inspires me.

3. When you are creatively exhausted how do you rest up and refill the creative well? For me its going on a hike or a kayak ride that gets me going again. Getting out of the day to day rut, and back into the quiet and beauty of the fresh natural air is very inspiring.


4. Where do you see your work taking you? I just do it for fun. I would love to create full time and have it sustain me financially, but I'm not sure that will ever happen.

5. Any particular websites you visit regularly? Etsy

6. What are your 3 top favorite foods and why? Tacos, macaroni and cheese, and a good steak on the grill. I love tacos because they are easy and you can do different combinations, macaroni and cheese because my mothers is the BEST! and I love cooking out and that great grill taste.

Thanks Kirsten! Click on the pictures to be taken directly to the etsy storefront of Indigo Crow.
