About
fienrks@gmail.com
Etsy
My work consists of playful, bold shapes and lots of primary colors. I like working with my hands using techniques such as screenprinting, ceramics, risoprinting, painting and making collages. I also sell most of my work in my Etsy shop.
I collect various things that give me inspiration such as stamps, packaging, coasters, old national geographic magazines, old books, vintage boardgames, and i have a huge collection of postcards. I like to take inspiration from these kinds of elements and use it in my work.
