Featured Artist: Adriana

Adriana's treasury received the most votes last week winning her a feature on my blog this week!
 
My name is Adriana Preloran and I am from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I love to do art crafts since I was a little girl; through my life I learned and worked with several techniques and materials. Five years ago I made a bracelet for me and when a friend saw it, she encouraged me to make more and offer it to sell. I did so and I sold them immediately. That´s how Motu Proprio was born.


I love to work with wool and felt, but all kind of textile and fiber materials call my attention and trigger my creativity. In fact, what most motivates me is the use of colors, I love them all!! Learning new techniques and using different materials are my excuse for playing with them. Lately, I started channeling this need to express myself through the world of textile accessories but previously I worked with Paper Mache, wood painting, stamping, tapestry, to name a few.


I have an Etsy shop where I sell my accessories; I also offer them in some local stores and occasionally I participate in craft fairs. I would love to make a living with my craft, but my main job is not related with it. I keep working to reach that goal... You can find my work here: www.motuproprio.etsy.com, I hope you like it!

Treasury Features
As some of you have noticed, I've been featuring five treasuries on the weekend that I've been featured in throughout the week. As I put together this past weekend's blog with the treasuries, a thought came to mind.



Weekend Treasuries
Each weekend I will post five treasuries I've been featured in throughout the week.
I have a method I use as to which ones get featured.
After I've posted the treasuries, I convo all those featured, as well as the curators.

This weekend, I'd like to try something a little different.
I will feature five treasuries, convo everyone, and then have a little contest with it!


The way it will work is as follows:-vote for your favorite of five treasuries.
The curator with the most votes will get their shop featured on my blog in the following weekend when I post the next five treasuries.
Everyone who comes to vote will get a chance at winning a prize as well. Ways to enter will vary each week.

First Contest Dates

Come back February 10th to see what the prize will be and which treasuries are featured!

Other news
I have had to turn my comment moderation on as I have one particular person spamming my blog A LOT! Until I figure out how to deal with this, I'll have to continue in this fashion.  Please comment once and I will moderate comments throughout the day.
