Is there a name for that particular anxiety of running a market stall as an introvert, facing the public and promoting your work? Artisanophobia Nervosa, or Agorastallophobia, perhaps?
Whatever it’s called, I’ve successfully run my first market stall!
Saturday 28 March at the Greenwoods Corner Easter Market was not only enjoyable, it was genuinely successful. Sales were strong across my range of Watercolour Works and Fantastic Felt, with a steady flow of interest from all ages. You can see more photos on Instagram and Facebook, and I’ll share more in my upcoming Sara’s Stories blog post. Happy Easter!
An exquisite collection of bright and colourful prints created by Sara Meade. Her extensive range of botanically-rooted to imaginative works explore the qualities of watercolour and ink on various textures. Available as prints in A4 or A5 size, plus a curated selection of 30 designs as greeting cards. [coming soon…Visit Molly Blooms Florist, Greenwoods Corner, Epsom, to see a selection on the walls.]
Sara’s connection with the natural world and to others is through creative expression. As a securely introverted artist/designer navigating health issues, she finds humour, contentment and joy through intuitive creativity. Sara’s stories reflect her creative life, her artistic background and the thrill she finds in developing new creations. Share your own stories in the comments.
Sara adores making exquisite felt figures and ornaments for festive occasions, with each one individually and lovingly stitched and embellished with colourful thread and beads. Valentine’s Day pōhutukawa felt hearts have sold well in the fabulous Morrinsville Gallery. More creations are currently underway for Easter, Mothers’ Day and more. Suggestions and commissions welcome.
