About the Artist: Tuesday Pope
|
Artist Tuesday Pope is a business savvy woman with a flair for creativity. While her love for business started from birth (she would often be found pretending to own a store on the playground with perhaps far too much accuracy for one so young) as did her love for video games, her plush toy sewing began around the age of 15. Before that, she was constantly seeking various other creative outlets, but this one suited her best.
From there, it was a climb of many mistakes and failures until she nestled comfortably into her niche with plenty of room left to grow. What started as a hobby has evolved into her passion. Now she's manufactured various merchandise of her own design and is entering the world of publication with her first how-to book coming soon; 'So you want to sell your nerdy art' title a work in progress. Currently she can be found either peddling wares in various convention artist alleys or sitting at her desk covered in fabric scraps. Occasionally she'll pour way too much time into a video game or a rousing round of Magic the Gathering which always ends in brutality and then feel bad about it because she could have been sewing. Her love of sea animals has led to her line of aquatic creatures. Her love of video games has led to the rest of her art.

About the Partner: Michael Sullivan
Michael Sullivan is many things, but for sake of this, we'll call him partner. He's the behind the scenes guy. Most of the buttons are created or arranged by him, pricing signs are organized by him from crude notes from the artist, and he has a knack for product ideas. At conventions, he helps run the table, grab food, offers moral support, helps set up and take down displays, and understands what the artist means when she calls something a doughnut. This business wouldn't run as smoothly without him and we're lucky to have him aboard.
When not herding the burgeoning imagination of Hibiscus Stitch owner Tuesday Pope, he's usually at work or indulging in his hobbies. Or being an amazing partner. Hobbies include being awesome at Warhammer and enjoying delving into the lore of the game, crafting magic the gathering desks and playing with his friends that get way too salty over cards, and playing video games. He also has amazing taste in all media from movies to music and so forth, can tell a mean story, and is a humongous nerd. Michael is very crafty and paints amazing warhammer models and has made many other awesome things. Very handy.
