Loving the work of Mara Caffarone, an artist based in Buenos Aires and is currently Little Paper Planes’ artist of the month. She has 5 exclusive prints up for sale over at LPP, and I am very interested in what she said about change in that her work is informed by what she is absorbing around her, and that the changes that are reflected in her work is a gradual shift – the ideas that underline her work is essentially the same, only the approach differs from one another.

How’s that for finding underlying patterns to create new things?

Have a great Monday!

I absolutely adore these wooden brooches from Kim’s Little Monster shop that I saw this morning over on the Etsy front page. Kim Welling is an artist and illustrator based in Netherlands and I am totally crushing on these portrait pins! I can totally imagine owning 7 of these (all with different portraits, of course!) each one for a different day of the week. Or maybe just 6, and then pin all 6 of them altogether for Sunday.

Oh yes.

Happy weekend everyone! I hope you had a lovely week and that your weekend is off to a wonderful start! 🙂

p/s—My Etsy article 9 tips to be more creative was featured in an Etsy newsletter today, thanks Danielle! 🙂

We all have days like these don’t we?

Heck no. Which is why I think this painting by Christian Northeast sums up my feelings exactly.
