Mixed media artist and illustrator Emma Block is currently studying at Middlesex University at UK, and I’m thoroughly enjoying her Flickr stream that documents her foray into illustration since 2007.
I love the fact that she experimented a lot with different styles before settling on her current style that incorporates mixed media. Her collages are fun and playful with a touch of lightness — you can grab some of her prints over at her Etsy shop!
As they say — practice makes perfect! 🙂
Paper Sparrow is the art and craft of Andrea Lauren Courchene — an artist who grew up in England but who is now based in Florida, USA. Her Etsy shop is stocked full with illustrations of her favorite animals: cats, sloths, foxes, deer, owl, narwhals and dogs on quite a range of items: buttons, necklaces, prints, cards and more!
With so many things to choose from, we thought it would be best if YOU could pick out your own favourite items, so there’s nothing better than a gift certificate to put together your own package (especially since Valentine’s Day is near!) 🙂
Andrea is offering a USD$50 gift certificate redeemable for items in her shop. Just leave a comment by 8th February and we’ll pick out a random winner after!
UPDATE: Commenting has now closed, thanks so much for participating. The winner of this giveaway is Nelka as chosen via random.org!
I am terrible at editing myself. I’m a fan of piling on details, layers in my own artwork, and extra words in my posts. So I will just shut up so we can take in the beautiful simplicity of Spanish illustrator Blanca Gomez.
No more, no less, just exactly what needs to be expressed.
