#meetmeonetsy day 10: first Etsy item My first Etsy item is still one of my most popular, a custom wire sign. Because of many customization requests, I've been able to expand variations, and now offer multiple sizes. While this is still the most popular size, I can make up to four words on a single strand of wire. #meetmeonetsyday10 #meettheartist #meetthemaker #firstetsyitem #firstetsysale #wiresign #personalizedsign #customizedsign #wirename #surname #lastname #firstname #middlename #wireart #signage #wirelettering #wallart #interiordesign #rusticdesign #moderndesign #industrialdecor #nomadblue #nomadblueshop #makersmovement #creatorslane

#meetmeonetsy day 9: weekends Weekends are pretty uneventful 😂 especially this weekend where I spent most of it in bed with a cold. Friday night I spent about 4 hours setting up student work for the district art show with @chelseadawndodson It was a ton of work but happy with the result! Now just hoping I'll be better for opening night on Tuesday 😷 #artshow #districtartshow #middleschoolart #middleschoolteacher #artteacher #sickteacher #drawing #weekends #day9 #etsy #etsymaker #etsymaker #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyhandmade #oklahomateacher #oklahoma #brokenarrow #nsu #nomadblue #nomadblueshop

#meetmeonetsy day 8: childhood memories Growing up in Korea in the 90s meant that these cards were a big part of my childhood-particularly in third and fourth grade. The Japanese cards are easily my favorite #day8 #childhoodmemories #childhood #pokemon #pokemoncards #pokemonart #pokemongen1 #pokemonjapanesecards #holographic #holocards #zapdos #magneton #chansey #hitmonchan #arbok #muk #snorlax #kanghaskan #clefairy #korea #generation1 #cards #anime #90sanime #hiragana #katakana #kanji #japanese #japan #etsymaker #etsy #art #artist

Yesterday was insane with setting up for the district wide art show, so I'm a day behind on #meetmeonetsy 😖 Day 7: favorite process/tools Typically whatever I'm working with at the moment is my favorite process. Spring is always busy with wire, while summer is where I usually do more digital art on my MacBook with my Wacom intuos pro. For my wire art, I keep my tools pretty simple with pliers, wire cutters, a ruler and a spool of wire. #meetmeonetsy #meetmeonetsyday7 #day7 #favoriteprocess #favoritetools #wire #wireart #pliers #wirecutters #ruler #spool #spoolofwire #aluminumwire #artprints #wallart #prints #digitalart #digitalpainting #macbookpro #wacomtablet #wacomintuospro #etsy #etsymaker #makerspace #etsymaker #nomadblue #nomadblueshop

#meetmeonetsy day6: Must see/hear/read Being home sick from work today means rewatching one of my favorite anime series while falling asleep. Clannad is probably one of my favorites, it's super cute 😍 I usually watch a movie or tv series while making orders or while coming up with new ideas. I'm not super into music, and my friends know I'm not a reader 😂 but I'm all about tv shows👌 #day6 #meetmeonetsyday6 #anime #clannad #clannadanime #fuko #starfish #starfishsculptures #sickday #sickteacher #slept3hours #etsyartist #etsymaker #animeshow #tvseries #mustsee #musthear #mustnotread #nomadblue #nomadblueshop #aprilmeetthemaker

#meetmeonetsy Day 4: Shop Name Origin When I first created my Etsy shop, I quickly chose the name "Wire Findings" as a placeholder until I could think of one I liked better. The process for choosing a new name was difficult, there were things I knew I wanted to incorporate. Nomad Blue came from a few places and influences. Nomad primarily stemmed from being a TCK as explained on #meetmeonetsyday3 while also incorporating the "Air Nomads" from one of my favorite shows "Avatar: The Last Airbender" there was something calming about the nomads that were described in the show. Blue simply came from it being my favorite color 😂 while I also liked the way the two words sounded together. I decided on the name before I designed the logo. I've always loved rainy weather and have been a bit obsessed with clouds ever since learning about William Turner in my high school art history class. I loved the moodiness of his paintings and the way he painted them. [check out his work if you're unfamiliar with it] Combining a lazy, sleepy, blue figure on a cloud that may be traveling to a new place is more or less the idea behind my logo. ☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️ #meetmeonetsyday4 #meettheartist #meetthemaker #etsyname #shopname #shopnamemeaning #etsyshopname #logodesign #graphicdesign #williamturner #williamturnersky #arthistory #nomadblue #nomadblueshop #nomad #blue #etsy #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyartist #etsyworld #etsymaker #etsyartist #design #designconcept #pthaloblue #prussianblue

#meetmeonetsy day4: home "Where are you from" is probably one of the most difficult questions for a third world kid to answer. So for day 4 being 'home' ; it's a bit tricky to choose one place. Photo 1: Sydney, Australia. My homeland, and where I grew up for the first few years before moving overseas. Still the place I would consider being home even though it's been 20 years since living here. Photo 2: Seoul, Korea. Probably one of the most influential and memorable places I lived. The place where I found a love for Korean culture which has stuck with me. Photo 3: Pennsylvania, USA. The place I have lived the longest, and spent all of middle school and high school. Photo 4: Oklahoma, USA. The first place I chose where to move. Where I attended college, and have been teaching the past several years. Tulsa has been home the past seven and a half years and where Nomad Blue began. 🇦🇺🇰🇷🇺🇸 #meetmeonetsyday4 #day4 #aprilmeetthemaker #etsy #home #tck #tckproblems #tckprobs #thirdworldculture #sydney #engadine #australia #seoul #korea #pennsylvania #doylestown #tulsa #oklahoma #usa #home #sydneyoperahouse #seoulforeignschool #seoulforeignbritishschool #oralrobertsuniversity #oru #etsyartist #etsymadelocal #localartist #etsysellersofinstagram #nomadblue #nomadblueshop #longpost

#meetmeonetsy #day3 : Day Job My day job consists of teaching 100+ middle school students, I'm currently teaching Art 2, 4 and Pre-AP. They're so goofy and talented. I love seeing them progress in their art and how they grow from year to year. #middleschool #middleschoolteacher #artteacher #artteacherlife #artroom #classroom #7thgradeteacher #8thgradeteacher #middleschoolart #middleschoolartteacher #oklahoma #brokenarrow #etsyartist #dayjob #educator educatorlife #teacherclassroom #artroom #studio #art2 #art4 #preap #messy #messyroom #westartedpainting #nomadblueshop #nomadblue

#meetmeonetsy day 2: inspirations Thought I would focus on art prints today since I haven't posted about them in awhile :) Two of my original prints were inspired by animals and calm landscapes. I've always loved animals, particularly aquatic life. Years ago I did some light painting with friends and just discovered these of an octopus and fish 🐙🐠 #meetmeonetsy #meetmeonetsyday2 #inspirations #fish #octopus #calmlandscapes #sealife #marinelife #aquaticanimals #lightpainting #photography #2010 #digitalprints #digitalpainting #hammerheadshark #deer #cherryblossom tree #forest #bamboo #wallart #artprint #poster #aprilmeetthemaker #meetthemakerapril #etsy #etsyartist #nomadblue #nomadblueshop
