New Zazzler Lizabeth, from the Zazzle store LizaPhoenix, talks with us about her style and what she’s looking forward to on Zazzle. Check out the interview below and don’t forget to check out her store LizaPhoenix!
Zazzle: Give us a brief bio, where you’re from and when you started making art.
Lizabeth: My name is Liza Phoenix, I’m from Seattle, Washington and I’ve worked as a professional craftsperson/designer for many years. I’ve done hand painted t-shirts, hand carved sculpture, beads, art prints, and posters.
Zazzle: What is your inspiration for your designs?
Lizabeth: Love, happiness, sweets, treats, magic, and rainbows.
Zazzle: When you’re not creating art, what are your other hobbies?
Lizabeth: I compile images and information about legendary creatures and fabulous beasts, and I maintain a subject guide to art history.
Zazzle: What’s your favorite style to create?
Lizabeth: Kawaii! A style that originated in Japan around the 1970s and emphasizes the cuteness of objects to the extreme and then a little bit beyond that.
Zazzle: How many hours do you typically spend working on your Zazzle store?
Lizabeth: In my mind I work all day and all night on my Zazzle store and my other websites and projects, but in reality it’s probably only about 8 hours a day.
Zazzle: What has been your favorite design you’ve created, and why?
Lizabeth: My favorites are usually my latest, but maybe some of my all-time favorites are “Pink Albino Narwhal” and “Super Rainbow Space Cake”. Why? Cute! (I hope!)
Zazzle: If Hollywood made a movie about your life, who would you like to see play you?
Lizabeth: Ha ha, Cameron Diaz, but she would need to gain 20 pounds and wear a wig.
Zazzle: Being a newer seller on Zazzle, what are you looking forward to the most?
Lizabeth: Making more money! Also, I have one million ideas that I’m anxious to get out of my mind and onto Zazzle products.
Zazzle: What got you interested in selling your art on Zazzle?
Lizabeth: I was with another POD company and the members there spoke so highly of Zazzle that I decided to give it a try.
Zazzle: What tips can you give someone who is just starting out on Zazzle?
Lizabeth: Put forth a great effort over a long period of time with a confident expectation of success. (Get back to me in a year or two and I’ll let you know if this actually works.)
Thanks Lizabeth!
