I really like art of all kinds now, but earrings still my favorite! When I was introduced to Novica-via The Hunger Site some time ago-I just looked at jewelry/earrings from South America mostly. Over time I discovered new artists, new places and new art.

My Dad & brother were the artists in my family. My Dad could draw all kinds of things-the funniest usually on a napkin. And he also did some paintings and large drawings. And my brother was an artist also, he designed some jewelry-mostly rings. He also did some tie-dye and other art. They both created art/items of all kinds.

And my family-before I was born- spent several years in West Africa where my Dad had an engineering job.

The appreciate art gene I got from all of my family but especially my Mom. Neither my mom nor I had much of the making art gene. She was interested in & enjoyed all kinds of different art and introduced me to various arts also.

Novica is So Great! It offers unique items of all kinds from around the world at fair prices and shipping rates.

And Novica allows people all over to see and participate in regions and art not previously within their purview.

And by 'meeting' the artists through their stories and their art of choice is like going to a worldwide community art fair (you just don't have to wear your "comfy" shoes).

And it is also nice to get artist/ region reminders so you are aware when a favorite artist of yours has something new to look at. And it is also great just to go to the Novica website to explore new items by your artist or other artists/art/regions you had never seen or thought about buying before.

Just an eye-opening & enjoyable experience whenever you visit Novica.com to look or buy.
