1.What kinds of crafts do you do?

I grab my camera and my creativity appears. I observe life and catch beautiful short moments in photographs.

 I call this activity “cropping the world”. Then I use my computer and software for photographers and do post processing on my photographs. I can do it for hours :)

2.Where do you create your works?

I love photographing in the open air. When I
photograph for my pendants or still life, I also use my room and basic equipment. I haven’t got my own workshop, but I dream about it.

 


3.What (if anything) in your workspace inspires you?

The earth is my workspace, so almost everything inspires me. Mostly nature, people, human emotions, simple little things around me

4. What kind of materials, tools do you use most often? How do you store them? 

My main tool is a Nikon DSLR and several lenses. My favourite lens in Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 and I also love to use the macro adapter. My photographs are printed by a professional lab on premium acid-free, archival paper, that has a great finish, and beautiful colours. I hang them in frames on the walls, pin to a pin board or fridge and use as presents for my friends :) I also use jewellery supplies to create wearable art.

5. How do you organize your workspace? Do you have any organization tip/tool/tricks that can help others improve their workspace?

I shouldn’t give any advice. I work in a “creative mess” ;)

6. What is the one favourite thing in your craft room?

My camera!

7. If you could change one thing in your craft room what would it be?

I would like to have my own photography workshop with huge windows, white wooden floor and cozy interior. I also dream about better and better equipment: new camera, bright lenses, big monitor...

FEATURED SELLER: Magnesina - Agnieszka

Agnieszka Magnesina is the person behind fine art photography shop called Magnesina. 


Tell us bit about yourself
My name is Agnieszka, I was born in Poznan, Poland in 1987 and I still live here with my whole family. I study psychology and sexology at Adam Mickiewicz University, it’s my last year (fortunately!). I work in a small training business and lead creativity and art-therapy workshops, especially for children. I love dogs! I support the Polish Foundation For Homeless Animals. What do I do apart from creating...? I think that “life is about creating yourself” so I am creating all the time, I am creating myself.

Place that you live in.

Poland surprises me everyday, I like the mixture of cultural, historical and political spheres, every minute is interesting here. I adore the variety of landscape, nature goods, weather and temperate climate. Every little part of living here can be inspiring.

What first made you want to become an artist?


I don’t know. I do not consider myself as an artist. I just do what I love, whatever makes me happy. If somebody calls me “an artist”, I simply answer that I am “a passionist” :)

Describe your creative process.

I take my camera and then my creativity appears. I observe life and catch beautiful short moments in photographs. I call this activity “cropping the world”.

Advice to artists on Etsy

Create yourselves!

What your day looks like?

I do not use any day-scheme or week-scheme, I strive to do what I have to do, and then I can focus on my passions (not only photography of course!).

How do you promote?

I list new items, provide promotions in my shop (for example “BOGO sale”), I create treasuries, and participate in Etsy Teams.

In 10 years, where would you like to be?

I would like to spend 3 months of the year travelling the world with my camera and the other 9 months in a little private apartment on the coast of Italy. Oh sweet dreams… Now come to reality! I want to help people as psychologist and sexologist, be a good wife and mother, have my own home and travel with my camera at least a week in the year! :)

What inspires you?

Almost everything. Mostly nature, people and human emotions, architecture, weather, simple little things around me…
