Storytelling

I discovered Esther Coombs on the previous month’s Poppytalk Handmade. Esther uses second-hand ceramics found at flea markets & charity shops and decorates them with her lovely illustrations. She writes on her Etsy profile that she wants to, “mix the old treasure and narratives these items possess with the new story I layer onto them.”

I like stories and I especially like the stories that these Esther tells. See more at esthercoombs.com.
