✱ About the artist<3
Hello! My name is Paule, AKA earthtopaule, and I run Iteno!
I'm an artist on the internet and am currently in college. I love digital illustration, character design, and making fun stories. A lot of my work is inspired by nostalgia from my childhood. I hope to create works meaningful to me and cute art that can be enjoyed by myself and others. I've loved to draw and create ever since I was a child, and it is something that I want to keep in my life forever.
Iteno is my web store that I sell my artwork on. The name 'Iteno' was just a bunch of letters I thought sounded cool together. It's now the name of a my main bunny characer.
I made this shop as a way to share my art with others in more physical, tangible forms. I currently focus on making stickers of my characters and various shows/games/things that I love. I'll eventually expand into making keychains, apparel, and other stationary. Iteno is only online for now, but I will eventually start selling at markets :)
I've always been nervous about losing the time and energy to continue creating art as I grow older and pursue other things, but this shop has been a really fun way for me to produce items that I enjoy while also supporting myself and the people I love. All the stickers you see are printed, cut, and produced from my home. Running Iteno is very rewarding for me, and I'm excited to continue making more things.
Thank you for reading this if you did, and I hope you stick around. <3 Check back soon!
Fun fact: Iteno started as a little bunny guy I would draw on the back of my tests when I was still in high school. He's probably over 6 years old at this point!
