About

I started blogging as Thoughts of Artisan since October 2009. When I was surfing over the internet looking for an inspiration, I came across lovely blogs and I got hooked with their works and stories. Then I’ve thought of setting up my own blog hoping I can also inspire others with my simple handmades.

This is a creative outlet for me… a place where I share all the designs I make in my studio and sometimes what’s happening in my life. Though my life may be a bit boring but I do hope you’ll get inspired with my work instead, lol.

So you’ve read about my blog and my studio and now it’s about me. Hello there! My name is April. I’m 28-years old and I live in the Philippines. I want to believe I’m an artist in my own little way. I wanted to learn how to draw and paint but I was drawn to the digital world instead.

My family specially my dad had a big influenced on me that’s why I had a degree in Accounting. However, I always have a love for art and so I took up short courses about Designing, Photoshop and Photography and even a Barista class. But mostly, I’m a self taught with regards to graphic design.

I believe I always had the entrepreneurial skills even before. I used to sell bead accessories {Cute as can Bead} at the fairs when I was still in college. Then, my mom was so generous to let me I franchised a small organic body care line {Victoria Tea Trea and Oil} after I graduated.
But as of today,  I co-owned and manage a coffee shop named Coffee at Yellow Hauz with my sister Sandy, and its just below our house. Can you imagine, a house with a coffee shop below and a studio beside it? {It’s fun and convenient, lol}

I’m glad you dropped by… I hope you’ll have fun… because you are about to read all about my designs, what I do in the studio, my inspirations, and my usual everyday routine… an artisan life… =)
