So, I run this monthly juried showcase of indie shops called the Indie Fixx Galleria and each week I highlight some of the Galleria shops. You can read more about the Galleria here.
Unravelling – Unravelling is the fine art photography of Susannah Conway, a photographer, writer and ex-fashion editor living on the south coast of England. Susannah writes, “Each of my photographs is my attempt to unravel the world around me, to see the beauty in all things. I’m currently inspired by vintage cameras and old photographs, my childhood diary and memories, late-night novel reading and early morning walks along the beach.”
Pretty Little Thieves – Pretty Little Thieves mostly flat things out of paper….”I draw, cut, paste, color and print. I love Helvetica, kraft and graph paper, pantone colors, black pens, 05 pencils and notebooks…inspired by more things than I have the space to list…illustration, graphics, hand drawing, patterns, art, nature, animals, travel and especially music. I also believe that you can never have too many books.”
MAUstudio – MAUstudio was founded in 2005 by Illinois based graphic and web designer Manyi.

Terry Graziano – Applying a modern twist to a traditional art form, Terry design hats that can be worn many different ways, beginning with classic millinery shapes and then envisioning what else they could do. Terry’s hope is that you will enjoy wearing a hat that can change silhouette and mood at whim and that this will inspire your own creativity with different possibilities for expressing your individuality. Each hat is handcrafted each hat in her NYC studio with great care and attention to detail, using designer mill-end surplus fabrics in luxurious textures and colors. Each hat is fully lined in silk for comfort, and they are adjustable for head size and shape to create a custom fit.
