Tomte. Modern Craft

Here is a preview of what Elena has been working on for her upcoming trunk show this Friday!

Here is a little bit about Elena:

“Grew up mostly in Ft. Collins. I’ve been doodling and crafting since I was a kid. I went to art school for a couple years in New York and became enthralled with a lot of the melting of lines between craft, folk art and fine art and between the various disciplines. I finished school at CSU concentrating in drawing and fibers in 2009. Since then I’ve been exploring the fantastic, magical, whimsical and dark themes my art in both paper and fabric realms. I work very organically- very little is planned. For my dolls I have started making a basic body and then decorating them, but I can never bring myself to duplicate anything. I prefer to hand stitch as much as possible- it is much easier to sculpt and draw with thread this way. I like unique, quirky, natural and recycled materials and try to use them as much as possible.”

Come by our Trunk Show and Grand Opening celebration this Friday, March 4th from 6-10pm!

Mark your calendars!
