Meagan here.
Back again to introduce you to this week's featured vendor-
Daphne with From Cali with Love
Sew Funky Market: When did you first open your shop? What made you decide to open your shop?
From Cali with Love: Today! Haha, Actually, ten years ago i heard a pastor speaking, encouraging college students to pursue their talents, to let God direct you toward the gifts he gave you. If you have a burning passion to do it, obey God and do it. I had a passion to paint so I went home and did. I was frozen by fear to do what I love, but i just had faith that God will bring me throught it for His greater plan. Since then my friends & family really encouraged me to take everything to next level!

SFM: What is your best selling item? What is your favorite item to create?
FCWL: I do these funky paintings that are drawn with sharpie markers, acrylics, and have little birds, flowers and are totally abstract. Right now, I love doing birds. I'm all about the birds.

SFM: What's your design process? Where do you find your inspiration?
FCWL: I'm inspired by things that I see and love, things that brings me joy. I see things like children, bicycles, birds, etc. in real life and imagine them on canvas. Before I start I pray about it. Pray it doesn't suck! :) I'll take a sharpie & a blank canvas, add acrylic, and start. No time frame, minutes, even hours on each little part.

SFM: What is your shop goal [besides being profitable]?
FCWL: bottom line, to glorify God. I'm an encourager & enjoy using my paintings to show others how to overcome there fear and pursue their dream
