Nina's stall

At the upcoming market I will be selling 3D printed bag charms and earrings, 3D printed vases, hand-drawn badges and magnets, cards and prints of my original artwork, linocuts and some of my needle felting. They are all my own original work and the 3D printed products are all completely unique designs I have created. Commission illustrations are available for magnets and badges. I will do an illustration of a photo of your pet while you walk around the market. All you need to do is have a suitable photo of your chosen pet on your phone or printed out on paper. A rough guide line for suitable photos is to have a clear shot of the pet’s face (the body is not required) with minimal blurring in the pet’s face. Make sure it is not a video. Prices for commissions are: Magnets: Badges: Small - $8 Small - $6 Large - $9 Large - $7
