It’s an “addiction,” Jenny Chang of A Bird in the Hand Art explained. Turning one’s art into a business can surely have its drawbacks, but Chang seems to be making a masterpiece of it.
“Seriously, I would be making this stuff anyway. The business side of it does take time, but it’s fun to think that someone would pay me to do something I love,” she said.
Chang’s specialties include a colorful mix of jewelry, stylish accessories, figurines, and house wares.
Marrying fabric, wood, ribbon, and paint in different adorable variations, her jewelry collection is possibly her greatest feat. A Bird in the Hand Art stands apart from a mass of chain-ridden, heavy-metal necklaces and bracelets with their unique and vibrant aesthetic.
Chang exclaimed, “I love color! I have a very eclectic style. It’s not unusual for me to find something and say, ‘This is so weird. I have to have it!’”
Where can you find inspiration akin to that Chang finds before she crafts up one of her splendid little treasures? She revealed, “I actually get really inspired after walking around a thrift store. Not only do I find things to cut up or repurpose, but also I might find something else really wonderful as is that inspires me.”
