There are no shortcomings in the illustrations of Lisa Falzon, as far as I’m concerned. I love her her mixture of traditional painting and digital manipulation that create such wonderful works. Not only does she offer the traditional “paintings,” she has also turned some into wearable jewelry. Imagine being the heir to an antique locket with pictures of Napoleon and Josephine tucked away inside. Be sure to check out her shop, and her portfolio. Viva la Lisa Falzon, and Viva La Revolution.
I’ve always dreamed of having one big wall and filling it with small prints and paintings. It would be like being the curator of your own personal gallery. Well if this ever does come true, I have to have a piece from Eggman Studios. Michelle Knowlen, the artist behind eggman, has very unique illustrations that fuse bright colors and antique ideals with a modern twist. My favorite piece has to be the bird on the typewriter, there is no way you could have a bad day with that painting to brighten things up. I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next.
Matt’s parents have just sold the home he grew up in, so he wanted to do something special for them as a christmas gift to remember the home the family grew up in. We didn’t want to do the traditional watercolor portrait of the house but did want something beautiful and artistic. Thats when we found Julie from Julie B creative. She is an amazing artist and the perfect style we were looking for. She has been kind enough to share progress photos of the painting and I wanted to share them with you.
