Andy is a tattooer and interdisciplinary artist living in Toronto. Here you can see a collection of her work and buy the things she creates as they become available.

Andy, please tell us a little about how SoapBubble Studio came to be.

My life’s dream was to make art all day, share fun and joy, and connect with community. I created SoapBubble Studio so the things I create have a platform, so I can sell my art and make a living, and hopefully I can influence the future in my own small way.

What things inspire you?

Animals doing things, particularly bugs, frogs, and dogs.
Creative Street Art.
Folk crafts from all over the world.
Flat compositions that use only 2 dimensionality.
Compositions that have an obvious geometric harmony.
Sun and the effect of light.
The concept of "nostalgia".
Gradations of colour and value.

Tell us about this “eco, animal, and human conscious” ethos.

While I am still transitioning into products and practices that have less impact, I advocate the use of products that are as eco, animal, and human conscious as possible. I hope to encourage others to keep their impact in mind as they create. We can support companies that create biodegradable craft products and are environmentally friendly. We can share or sell craft supplies that would otherwise get thrown away. We can upcycle many things instead of throwing them out. We can learn from and teach one another.

What would you like to leave us with?

Being creative makes humans happy, so let’s make stuff and pursue a future that is healthier for everyone and everything.
