Interview & giveaway! Shelly Etc.
Stop by and say hi to Shelly of Shelly, Etc.
Tell us bit about yourself, your company.
SE: My name is Shelly, my company is .Shelly.Etc. Mostly because I really like to do a little bit of everything. You will see I have taken my photography and pushed it into my love of graphic design (cards, postcards), sewing (aprons), and more which will come!
When you were young, what did you want to be when you grew up?
SE: Either a famous disney artist or an architect! (I'm pretty close, I am an interior designer!)
Is there a certain person, place or object you draw inspiration from?
SE: Found objects, people always ask if I pose photographs, the answer is no! I only take photos of what I find in various cities around the world.
If you had no boundaries: money, time, space, support, etc. what dream project would you pursue?
SE: Becoming a world traveler, while continuing to promote my artwork in more cities than just Seattle.
What’s your favorite thing to do to kill time? Any secret Internet time wasters, guilty pleasures? Time?
SE: What time?! Of course facebook is my ultimate time waster, but I also love sitting watching a rom com and eating some popcorn.
Where do you like to go when you just want to get away? A beach, a mall, a market? What’s your favorite type of spot to go unwind.
SE: It would have to be somewhere secluded, a beach or cabin in the middle of nowhere, or on a hike or even a jog around my neighborhood. Anywhere that helps me clear my mind.
If you only had one more meal to eat on this world what would it be? (It can be several courses)
SE: First I would start off with some sort of guacamole and blue chips, followed by Annie's mac and cheese.
What do you love most about UCU’s Summer Show?
SE: I think it's great to see all of the fans excited to be at the show, whether that's standing in line really early for swag, or racing to their favorite booth to get "the best" merch.
Tell readers what they should expect to see when they stop by and see you at UCU.
SE: I have updated my photo library with about 20 new photographs - you can see all of my photographs at: www.shellyetc.com As far as products I will have a lot of small prints available (in the most popular images), handmade journals, postcards, greeting cards, magnets and nightlights. And! If you place a custom order I will take 10% off. also, I will have a sale bin with some imperfect prints, magnets and cards.
