The Fall, an elaborate and beautiful fairytale of a film, is one that you should know about and be anticipating every bit as much as the other films coming out this summer–but chances are pretty good that you haven’t heard of it. In one of those serendipitous moments of discovery I recently clicked on a link for the trailer on Movie-List dot com and was undone.
See for yourself:

And better late than never (Friday proved to be a FUUUULLLLL workday!) the final day of the very first (but not the last) Etsy Week is upon us. It is indeed Etsy Week: Day Four.
For the uninitiated (who are you people?!?!?!) Feel free to visit:
Etsy Week: Day One
Etsy Week: Day Two
Etsy Week: Day Three
We finish up this tour of a mere pittance of my Etsy Favorite Sellers (several more will be featured in the upcoming Fashion as Art Week!) with a couple more exciting shops.
The first artist on today’s tour is Liz Conway. Her etsy shop, Blue Gypsy, features originals and prints of her collage and painted art.
It is Day Three of Etsy Week and I have two more artists who occupy spaces on my list of favorite etsy sellers to share with you today.
But first, for those of you who may not have been around for the past few days and are wondering what an ‘Etsy Week’ is, please check out the following posts:
Etsy Week: Day One
Etsy Week: Day Two
You will want to check out both of those posts because doing so, and commenting, will get you in the running for an end of the week prize pack. More importantly you will discover the work of some wonderfully creative artists.
Let’s get started for today, shall we?

I cannot always keep up. I try to…I long to…but I miss it sometimes. I say this to admit that one of my very favorite places to visit on the web announced the closing of its doors on May 28th and I just found out yesterday. On top of how sad this makes me feel, I feel even worse that it took me a week to discover this.
I have been very open about my inspirations for this site over the years. Neil Gaiman’s journal was my first inspiration. His habit of sharing diverse, strange, interesting things was the template by which I tried to structure my site. Lisa Snellings-Clark was another inspiration. There was something about the work she was doing and her attitude about art and life that began to push me towards exposing myself, and readers, to more art. And then there was The Endicott Studio.
The Endicott Studio site, and later its blog, was the singular website I could point most strongly to and say that what they were doing was what spoke most to my heart. And now they are saying goodbye.
It is Day Two of Etsy Week! For those of you who may not have visited yesterday, an explanation of what Etsy Week is begins the Day One post.
For this second day I bring you the work of two more Etsy artists whose shops are listed in my ‘favorite sellers’ section.
