Hello World

I’m really excited to be here on Etsy, though, like in real life, it’s always nice to give a little introduction so here I go.

I love to create and imagine a world where we can connect with the things around us, ideas, objects. I’m sure you remember that feeling as a child when your unbound by social etiquette and norms, free from the confines of relative time. Everything is and can still be an adventure. They say the best things in life are the simple things, love, food, laughter being some of my favorites. In today's world it’s so easy to just get caught up in the rat race and forget that simplicity and your inner child. These are some of the things that drive me to create and question.

Illustrating, doodling and getting stuff out there for people to enjoy is a huge driving force for me. Being able to bring my artwork to people in a way that feels more engaging and special, over just mass produced rubbish, is something that pushed me towards Etsy. I’m very passionate about the environment. As a vegan I feel unhappy about unsustainable manufacturing methods that output apparel and products for next to nothing yet sold for massive markups, by faceless conglomerates. Technology enables us to embrace a more sustainable, responsible model, bringing handmade and sustainable goods to the world via the internet.

I’m a small one man show, but I’m willing to take responsibility and consider a more responsible business model, to appreciate the environmental and ecological impact we have on this home called Earth. There is always more I can do to improve environmental credentials. Not everything is within my grasp right now, but I promise I’ll keep working to improve.

If you would like to get in touch with me, I’d love to see your email in my inbox. You can also get in touch via twitter and follow my babblings about illustration, technology and the environment.

Lots of Love,
Mr Biscuit
