Awesome textures and beautiful linework by Katy Smail. Have a peek in her shop, where you’ll find original art pieces, t-shirts, notebooks and prints.

It’s good to be back!

I am smiling at the works on Silhouette Masterpiece Theatre helmed by Wilhelm Staehle and T.D.Rio. Scrolling down the innocent looking intricate paper cut-outs set against some serious paintings, I can hardly stifle a giggle as I read the naughty going-ons in the minds of the characters.

The duo has a wonderful shop called The Bazaarium where they have all sorts of Victorian-inspired goods and wares, like these deliciously intriguing mystery mini-books too, in addition to prints from their Silhouette Masterpiece Theatre.

No, the laptop is not quite done yet, and is still in the workshop, but from Renegade Handmade’s new shop I found the work of Abbey Hambright who sells under the name abbeychristine and I simply had to share. I am loving her custom-made felt finger puppets of pop culture icons and famous people (care for a Yoko Ono finger puppet anyone?), but find it ironic that I am sticking a finger up their you-know-what, even if it’s only figuratively! 🙂

Read her blog for updates on what she’s up to, and have a gander at her flickr stream for more indie goodness.
