Annaliese - Season 3 - Episode 10

Name: Annaliese Martin
Email Address: amuseliese@gmail.com
What Is It That You Do?: Run a little Etsy shop with some jewelry and some small watercolor paintings. Paintings mostly commissions.
Generally tinker and create and livestream. I'm no pro, but I do like to talk about my process and what I learned during the actual building process.
Design and create Art Bras to raise money for BCRC Austin, TX (Breast Cancer Research Center) This is my third year.
Apparently I decorate for parties... I tend to POUR myself into research for projects like this and rely on the big picture knowledge I've absorbed, rather than exact templates.
 
Is There A Project You Are Currently Involved In That You Would Like To Promote?:
 
May happens to be PKU awareness month... that's the genetic disorder I have BUT it's not exactly geeky unless you are a bio/genetics geek. I can certainly talk about that if it comes up. I will not push it though. I used to be a huge advocate, posted it all over social media but I have a lot on my plate and there are others who are younger and have more time. It's fine.
 
My mother-in-law's Art Bra donation page? But I'm just going to link to it on my amuseliese facebook page later.. Not enough time to prep more.
 
Otherwise really just my amuseliese facebook page.

What Are Some Topics You Enjoy Having Discussions About?:
Overwatch of course, JUST getting started in HoTS. Dabbling in many arts/creative things. Picking up skills whenever I can.
FOOD. I can always talk about food! My culinary life with medical restrictions and how I make it work... traveling for food, world cuisine, Hayao Miyazaki films, weird Texas stuff, nail polish, now I'm just naming stuff on my desk...
Cosplay and how to decide what to do... canon reproductions vs personal interpretations... body image in Cosplay (sensitive topic for many)
Where Can My Listeners Find You?: @amuseliese on facebook, instagram, facebook

Do You Have Something You'd Like To Give As A Prize To A Live Listener? (Not required): I can do a crystal point necklace from my store. Or a small watercolor thing - those are usually more of a commission but I have an Overwatch logo one I could give.
