The artist of these beautiful creations is, Cathy McMurray. I found her shop while I was searching through Etsy. I loved her artwork right away because mixed media is my favorite and I just really love her style. Another thing that is really cool about her art is that she uses eco-friendly materials for all of you earth savers! :)
Take a look at her etsy shop and she also has her own blog.

Anthropologie Love,

Anthropologie's newest video, "Scarf Scenes" displays their new scarfs in a very creative and fun way. The song, "What Beats Within", played during the video is by the very talented, Jenny Owen Youngs!

I then created an Anthropologie outfit-for-the-day. It might not be weather appropriate being in Chicago, but I'm really missing the warm weather so I had to create a spring/summer outfit to make me more happy :) Plus the cute owl container and awesome sofa chair, as well from Anthropologie, were the color inspirations for this outfit!

Who doesn't dream about these things? I really want to build a fort like one of these now. But aren't those little fairy book houses adorable?!

Mary Blair (1911-1978) is one of my all-time favorite artists! She was a master with color and her illustrations had so much character. Above are a few of my favorite disney illustrations she did for the concept art of the films, Alice and Wonderland, and Peter Pan.

Today I am inspired by jellyfish.

Jellyfish are such beautiful creatures. I was enjoying looking at photos of jellyfish and how they flow so gracefully through the sea with their delicate colors and silhouettes. They are like women dancing around in elegant, flowy dresses. So I found these lovely dresses that brought the jellyfish to life!

By Jonsi and Alex of Rice Boy Sleeps; launched July 2009.
This collection of art as well as many more pieces were displayed at an event in which they also launched their new album, Rice Boy Sleeps. Even though this album was released awhile ago, I have been amazed by the beautiful and dream-like music they create. I've also always been in love with their artwork and it has inspired me many times with my own work.
Check out Jonsi and Alex's website to see more of what they do!
