About meeee
The short answer:
Some of you already know me, know my story, and know what I make... but if you're new to this adventure, here's a very simplified version of who I am and what I create!
My name is Liz Potter, and I currently (and probably forever) live in Alpine, Texas- a small, remote, far West Texas town near Big Bend National Park and Marfa- if either of those lend a reference! After living in Austin for 30 years, I picked up my life and moved here in early 2018. The move radically changed my life in many ways, particularly creatively.
I spent decades designing and sewing purses, and though I plan to continue to make those available on a limited basis, I've branched out over the past several years to include my art and photography work. The name of my website comes from a shortened fortune cookie fortune that initially read: "A wonderful adventure awaits you." But why wait? It's here!
Part of my personal adventure is digging in deep with my analog photography. I have a different website for that work: lizpotterphotography. I'm very active on my Instagram for that part of my life: @lizpotterphotography
I'm deeply inspired by the Texas desert I now call home and hope to convey my connection to the land in my work! I'm selling through my website and to a limited number of shops I list on my "shows and shops" page.
I have ignored this website and part of my creative business for a while now- life has had a lot going on to take me away from it. When my renewal comes up for this website, I might keep my domain and link it to my photogaphy website so I can add a shop page there. Depends on how this year goes!
Thanks for being here, I hope you find something special!
