Under a Newlight’s inpirations

Under New Light’s inspirations come from all sides. It ‘s influenced by beautiful poems, song lyrics, photography, festive colors that are typically found in the indigenous clothing of my home country Peru, sunny beaches, and ethnic cultures, such as Tibetan and Native Americans, that I discovered in other countries where I’ve lived. I’m inspired by memories of a place, experiences from my hometown or maybe from where I spent or am spending part of my life. Going a little further, I like geometric forms and using elementary geometry studies. One never truly knows, but our creations evolve and change as we grow.

The things that recently inspired me were the beautiful memories of holiday seasons in Nanjing, China. The Chinese usually decorate their houses and streets with beautiful art of hand-cut paper. I like combining this hand-cut style on leather with a touch of geometric principle, or with a glimpse of nature.

Below is the beautiful paper cuts that can be found in China. They’re habitually seen during the Spring festival.









Las inspiraciones de Under a New Light llegan por todos lados, estan influenciados en bellos poemas, letras de canciones, la fotografia, los colores festivos de mi cultura reflejados en los colores de vestimentas indigenas de mi tierra Peru, las playas soleadas, la cultura etnica del pais donde he vivido me apego bastante al tibet y a los nativos americanos. El recuerdo de un lugar, las vivencias en mi ciudad natal o tal vez los lugares donde he pasado y estoy pasando parte de mi vida.  Llendo un poco mas lejos a formas geometricas, estudios de geometria elemental, y uno nunca sabe verdaremente. Las creaciones evolucionan y las inspiraciones cambian asi como crecemos.

Lo ultimo en que me he inspirado son en los bellos recuerdos de temporadas festivas en Nanjing-China, en las decoraciones que habitualmente los chinos ponen en sus casas y en sus calles con los bellos arte de papel cortado a mano, Me gusta combinar este tecnica en cuero  con un pequeno principio geometrico, o asociandolo a la naturaleza.

Abajo les muestro los maravillosos cortes de papel en China, que habitulmente los he visto en sus festival de primavera.



And then, here is my work based on this technique, but with a geometric principle and natural touch.

Y luego les muestro mi trabajo basado en esa tecnica, pero dandole un principio geometrico y un toque natural.

Holiday Season Worked Havoc with international parcels

(picture by National Postal Museum)




Yes, this holiday season has brought to our shops and our customers a great deal of confusion and disappointment that has carried over to the New Year. It has tested our well developed resourcefulness in and out of Etsy. It has and is continuously challenging our hard-earned reputation as Etsy sellers.

We are writing on behalf of the entire EsEtsy team. We want to be reassured of Etsy's support in this matter, for each individual Etsy seller in our team, who has come but too often for help, advise and answers, is doubting Etsy's willingness to side with us sellers.

Our shops have come with a list of international customers, who are mainly located in the USA, and their claims/ reports of non delivery, their threats for negative feedback, their reports on paypal, their back and forth convos for updates about packages/ orders that have not yet arrived.

During the holiday rush Etsy did publish an article that mentioned the delay in packages delivery, asking for extra patience while waiting for the order, and advising to purchase insurance and to mail with a tracking number (this information in many cases has not been updated properly during this season). This was a topic and a road all too familiar for shops housed abroad (out of the USA), which mailed out orders from purchases as early as November 2010.

These unforeseen delays, with tighten security due to terrorist threats and postal services regulations which tempt to vary from border to border, added to the usual expected time of delivery on regular packages.

For customers already in the peak of the holiday shopping anxiety, this article did not make sense (especially the Etsy newcomers and first timers). For many buyers the delay is just an unacceptable factor, not taking into consideration that the seller has no control over the package while in transit, that the delay is an Etsy wide catastrophe, that is not a particular seller's wrong doing-not in this case-!

We are left with two certainties from all this: that Etsy needs to pronounce itself standing by each seller -reviewing each case, because each case is one of a kind- and lacking this so far is adding up to our disadvantage. And that this will render us an infamous negative feedback, too many to keep running an up to now successful Etsy shop.

We feel our shops are in danger, we feel the need from Etsy to back us up in a consistent way in order to be able to confront this unfortunate situation successfully and keep doing our business that we love.
Thank you!
