I am a middle school science teacher with 3 kids, ages 21, 19, and 16. I love the outdoors, photography, art, music, and yoga. I am inspired by natural art, indian teas, african music, japanese gardens, and tibetan mandalas.

I love how Novica supports the artistic craftmanship of individuals from all over the globe. The quality of merchandise is so very high, it becomes a challenge to choose from so many excellent choices. I have for many years owned purses for purely utilitarian purposes, as I have never seen conventional purses sold in stores as having any artistic value. When I finally found Novica, and its selection of bags and purses, I finally found a place that had so many selections of true artistic quality. I have no doubt this is true of everything they sell.
