Melinda talked a LOT about Etsy. It’s a website where craftspeople can sell their goods. The site stongly emphasizes handmade goods. It was good to learn about but it was strongly business oriented. When she mentioned it I thought it would be a great thing to do but likely not for what I make. She said someone who makes small things that are easily recreated are the perfect product for Etsy. I however tend to learn towards the one-of-a-kind, fine art production. She also showed us a bit of her work and I found it very interesting, especially the idea of a “residue” piece (a piece created with the by products or through the process of making another piece). She was a pretty good speaker and she held my interest, but her lecture didn’t seem to appeal to too many of us right now in foundation year.
