Lace9: How long have you been Zazzling?

Tina: 4 years


Lace9: What do you like most about Zazzle?

Tina: It's a great way to share the beauty of Nature around us. I think the site is very easy to use and I have fun designing products. I get excited when I realize others enjoy my photography as well. I love reading my email "your Zazzle Product(s) has been purchased." It's a good feeling.

Tina: Mostly photography.


Lace9: What genre does your work mostly fall into?

Tina: Nature, animals and wildlife.

Lace9: What artist or art are you inspired by?

Lace9: Where do you get your ideas from?

Tina: I just watch what's going on in my back yard. I have noticed I see thing differently now than I used to. I definitely do not leave home without my camera. I may be inspired anywhere. The Beauty is all around us.


Lace9: Is there a product in your store that you liked so much you’ve bought it yourself?

Tina: Yep. I loved this shot.


Lace9: Do you have a favourite Zazzle store that’s not yours?

Tina: As I mentioned above... Tom Purse is a favorite of mine.. I could look at the world through his eyes all day. You can find him here: Northwest Scenescapes Photography


Lace9: Do you have your art on other sites?

Tina: I have a blog but I don't get many views so I tend not to keep it updated as I should. Amazing iPhone and iPad Cases

Tiles and Gift Boxes! What will you make of them?

This top five is all about Zazzle's newly launched products – Ceramic Tiles and Two Types of Gift Boxes!

Like many zazzle artists I've been having great fun adding my work to these.
While vibrantly displaying photos or artwork, the 3.75 ounce ceramic tiles are great for use as trivets. Stand hot dinner, pots, or pans on them; saving table tops and other surfaces from heat damage. Alternatively you can select a frame in either cherry or pecan, and just like that: the tile of your choice becomes a beautiful decorative piece for hanging in the home.
Perhaps my favourite feature of these particular new Zazzle products is that you can have them added to a beautiful 100% wooden box of either: Golden Oak, Ebony Black, Emerald Green, or Red Mahogany - that’s perfect for storing keepsakes, jewelry and other trinkets. Both box styles come in two sizes & the Premium Jewelry Boxes even come with a magnetized lid!
As you would expect there are already thousands available for sale in the Zazzle marketplace and with Christmas on the way, and the abundance of customization features on offer, they're the perfect "personal touch" for upcoming holiday gifting.

As this was essentially a launch of three products at once I've decided showing only one type would not do them justice. So for this particular Top 5 I've chosen both 5 Tiles & 5 Gift Boxes, from some of the great artist working hard to create stunning original art on Zazzle.



First up - My Top 5 Zazzle tiles on the Market so far:

Zazzle Featured Artist Interview

greendeer


How long have you been Zazzling?    

Started end of February 2011

What do you like most about zazzle?    

That all I have to invest is my time and work - one can make products without soending the money for printing and having the basement full of t-shirts to sell; also, the variety of available products is great.

What medium (graphic design on computer/paint/pencil, etc...) do you work in?    

I draw with a paintbrush and Indian ink and process the drawings in the computer. Then I use some magic powder made from a genuine speedy gonzalez whisker to bring them to life (only in moonless nights)

What genre does your work mostly fall into?   

Cartoon art more or less

What artist or art are you inspired by?    

I am into telling stories with my drawings, so I am inspired by comics as well as film and (most of all) books.

Where do you get your ideas from?    

All those animals live in my mood. I just have to ask them.

Is there a product in your store that you liked so much you’ve bought it yourself?

I didn’t buy anything yet, but I am still quite new.

Below is a fine example of greendeer's artwork on this 2012 calendar cool animals calendar.


Do you have a favourite zazzle store that’s not yours?

so many..

Do you have your art on other sites? (Blog, Website, other POD site)

I have a blog with little stories connected to drawings I use on zazzle products:
http://www.deer-prudence.blogspot.com
and a website with my work as a graphic designer and illustrator:

Some photos I do are shown on ipernity:

Zazzle Custom Ornaments - They're not just for Christmas.

Zazzle custom ornaments may be great for your Christmas tree but they have many other uses too: from Door Hangers to Fan Pulls, to commemorative keepsakes. With seven styles to choose from; including premium round  & premium square--which are metal with a delicate red ribbon--or the five ceramic shapes: round, oval, star, heart, & T-shirt, Zazzle has seen to it both customer & designer are spoiled for choice.


Of course, even Zazzle probably didn't anticipate the number of uses their global army of talented artists would come up with for using these delightful trinkets. Celebrating a recent family milestone? Or simply looking for something special to brighten a space in your home or office? Either way there's a design in the marketplace with your name on it! Or maybe not but there can be - with the multitude of customization features Zazzle offers.
Whether you go for the ceramic or metal options, there are thousands upon thousands of designs already available and ready for you, or you can easily combine your precious photos with the best artwork from independent artists to create the keepsake that's perfect for you.  Whatever your choice, you'll surely end up with a beautiful gift for yourself or your loved ones.




So there we have it: the Zazzle custom Ornament - as versatile as your imagination allows. Now for my personal faves with all original art; once again I'd like to share with you:
