Heya,
I'm ien, like ian only spelled more phonetically... at least, it seems that way to me. I've been making maille for about 12 years now, mostly doing odd, quirky little projects with it... and in the past year or so I got into making jewelry. I'm on a bit of a stainless kick at the minute, and I'm working on finally teaching myself some new weaves. I don't sell, really, but mostly make things for barter and gifts.
In my 'real life', I work in theater. I'm a sound designer living in New York City, and for the next year I'm going back to school for awhile in New Haven. I often work on my maille on the subway or at my tech table during a lull.
When I'm not at a theater or glued to my desk in the mild hope that I'll actually get some designing done (I'm an insufferable procrastinator, sometimes... Like now.), I'm hanging out with my two cats Jas and JM, reading and sculpting at home. Sometimes I make puppets... And sometimes I refurbish prop guns with aluminum foil and hotel key cards. 'Cause I don't know about you guys, but I kinda think mailling is part of my secret Macgyver identity.
