1) Your shop name:
green loves you.
2) Your real name:
Jamie Lee Ferraioli, but people call me Jamie Green.
3) Your favorite breakfast cereal:
There was this cereal I can't remember the name of when I was younger that was shaped like little stars and had frosting on top of them and little non-pareil sprinkles. I think the mascot for the box might've been a genie. I wish I could find that cereal again, because it's my absolute favorite!
4) When did you begin creating?
I don't think I can remember a time when I wasn't creating something. Making things is definitely my passion, so I'd say the second I was old enough to pick up a crayon I was on a roll.
5) Got a day job?
I WISH I didn't have a day job, but I do. I work for Eckerd Drugs doing merchandising and stocking. I just graduated college so I'm now on the prowl for a job in my field, so we'll see how that goes. Know anyone in need of an illustrator?
6) Your inspirations:
My biggest inspiration is food. I LOVE food. If I could have a job where I draw and create pretend foods all day I would be so happy.
Chocolate Sprinkle DOUGHNUT Cellphone Charm
7) Weirdest thing you've ever made:
A few years ago, when I was bored and playing with some polymer clay I decided to sculpt out the likeness of my boyfriend sitting playing a video game. Somehow he ended up looking like a melting muppet. Not a good look for him.
8) Creation that you are most proud of:
For a project in my 3D Color & Design class I made a beaded curtain out of paper beads. It took days and days and piles of magazine strips and Elmer's glue. I got the inspiration from a celebrity showing off her house on TV and she showed a beaded curtain she loved that she bought for $4,000. I thought "I can make that.", so I did! It's so stunning, I would love to make a second one one day.
9) Explain your shop name:
My nickname in highschool was Jamie Green because I was obsessed with the color green. We're talking insanely obsessed. One day, I just started ending notes and emails and even tests and quizzes with "green loves you.". It's stuck with me for so long that I didn't think twice before naming my shop that.
10) Final thoughts?
My final thoughts...If you haven't played Tales of Symphonia for Gamecube yet you haven't lived! Oh, and green loves you.
