April Art Roundup: Twu Wuv, Bookish Mario, and Squee-Worthy Sad Robots

Time again for my favorite geeky art finds of the month!

Starting with the Princess Bride piece, "True Love" by Janna Bock:

Although I'll admit to being a little disappointed she didn't call it, "Twu Wuv." :D

 Bock only has a few pieces listed for sale, but I'm also digging her "French Hair:"

Both prints are $15 in Bock's Etsy shop.

I fell hard for the colors in Jenna Brown's new "Lollipop:"

And over at Brown's brand-spankin' new store, she also has this lovely:

"Bubblegum"

Check out Brown's shop for more!


A super sweet Link & Zelda set by Fort Awesome Studios:

I like how s/he painted the originals on vintage book pages!

There are also some great Mario sets available:

Check out the Fort Awesome Studios Etsy shop for more!


Jessica Robinson of The Sticker Alley has done something quite clever with her art: she's turned her characters into magnetic bookmarks!

You can choose one of these three sets for less than $6.50.

Or get Rey & BB-8 here for just over $3:

Jessica has dozens of character sets to choose from - plus larger version of individual characters - so have fun picking your favorites! 

Head over to The Sticker Alley to see the rest.


Here's another clever use of art: Lisa Penney turns her Disney fan pieces into fabulous lanyard holders and keychains:

The larger ones have clear vinyl pockets on the back to hold your park ticket!

Prices start at $12, so go see the rest!


Now, I know you're all wondering, "Hey, is Jen still obsessed with Songbird from BioShock:Infinite?" The answer is yes. YES I AM.

So here's some more great Songbird art:

And it's less than $7 from the French artist Zellgarm.


This steampunky "Last Train" by Kai Carpenter has a gorgeous, dreamlike quality:

It's $30 for a big 11X17 print here.


And finally, check out my new favorite .gif:

 SQUEEEEEEE

I want to get one of those digital frames and have this playing nonstop for all time.

It's called "To Boldly Go," by Matt Dixon, who has some of the BEST cute robot art:

 Check out Dixon's DeviantArt Gallery to see all of his work, or go order prints here on his website - looks like you just tell him the name of the print you want, so I think all of these are available.

Dixon also has *two* robot art books you should definitely check out - and fingers crossed he does that Robot Calendar again, because I reeeeally want one for next year!
