Floaty Ghost Girls, Rainbow Bumblebees, & Clay Sunsets I Want To Smash My Face In

Watch me slide in to the last day of the month with my April Art Finds.

WHOOOOOOOSH.

Oh yeah. Smooth.

 First up, the dreamy, ghostly, floaty art of Moonbound Studio:

How are these spirits so CUTE? I love the lil peeking ones in back. It's like the Knights Who Say Ni came back to haunt the forest and ask wandering magical girls for shrubberies.

The artist, Sierra, loves mythology, nature, and magic, which pretty well sums up her style:

I can't get enough of her floating ghost ladies, they're my favorite:

Sierra even has a few fandom pieces from Avatar and Disney, though it may take you a second to recognize some of them.

This Painted Lady from Avatar is pretty easy to spot, but I stared at her Elsa for a few seconds before realizing who it was. I love it when an artist puts her own spin on a character like that!

You can buy prints of Sierra's work at the Moonbound Studio online shop, and be sure to follow her on Instagram to see more.

Next, an artist right here in Florida just finished painting the MOST incredible rainbow room for her kid, and I am in awe. IN AWE I SAY:

Hnnnng.

Apparently the bed is going in the closet where the hearts are! Can't wait to see it furnished.

Jessica Dunbar is the artist behind this Room of Happy, and her canvas work is just as jaw-dropping:

WOW.

I'm fascinated by how Jessica paints the entire background in first: check out this mermaid work-in-progress:

You can watch some time-lapse of her painting this one here. So cool!

You can buy prints on Jessica's website, where I also found this abstract Doctor Who piece I'm loving:

Plus she has a Jurassic dino and a Moulin Rouge piece over there. NOICE.

Be sure to follow Jessica on Instagram for more!

Let's keep those brilliant colors going with the clay art of Alisa Lariushkina, aka LiskaFlower:

Y'all. That's CLAY.

::sound of my brain 'sploding::

Alisa hand sculpts and places each tiny little squiggle and swirl to form landscapes you'll want to violently squash your face into. Unless that's just me.

I like how her clouds look like velvety Muppet noses.

Seriously, I just wanna squish that grass so bad, y'all. SQUISHY HANDS.

You can see loads more landscapes over on Alisa's My Modern Met feature, but then be sure to follow her on Instagram to also see her jewelry pieces, what whaaaaaat:

While you're at it, bookmark her Etsy shop! Nothing is listed right now, though, because I'm sure these get snapped up fast.

Next a different kind of clay creation from Little Blue Seal:


Sweet blobby marshmallow loaf!! Awwww.

Ayla the artist makes lots more than seals, though:

Candy-colored resin bats!

And her bees, ohhhh migoodness:

What's up, bumble-butt?

Check out Ayla's Etsy shop for all sorts of adorable creatures for sale, then be sure to follow LittleBlueSeal on IG!

And finally, since I'm on a bright color kick, let me end with an artist I've been following for years and years and STILL can't get enough of, Kristin Tercek:



AKA, Cuddly Rigor Mortis.

You might recognize some of Kristin's work from the Disney parks, since she does some official pieces for them, and her style is unmistakable:

Lately she's been painting a lot of smaller pieces: happy little fuzzy blobs that give me insta-smiles:

I love her shiny mismatched eyes on everything:

Check out Kristin's website for all her shopping links; she has prints, magnets, t-shirts, & canvases for sale. Then give her a follow on IG for more happy fuzzballs in your feed.

Now let's give away some art!

But first, you know how I'm always saying in these posts that it's so hard to pick a favorite? Welp, I'm about to pass that pain on to you. ::evil grin::

That's right, there can only be one, gang, so tell me which of the following 3 art sets you like best!


First, a stunning Star Wars droid set:

I purchased these 4x6 prints from an artist who tragically was giving up her art career, and selling off her entire stock. I don't remember her name, only that she specialized in custom wedding invitations with a geeky flair. These are truly irreplaceable prints.


Or, behind Door #2, we have some vibrant Tiki Room vibes with these two Disney Wonderground exclusive 5x7 postcard prints:


The artists are Robert Jiminez and Joey Chou.


And finally, behind Door #3, we have this Hogwarts trio of 4x6 playing card prints by Lisa Villella:



Lisa made the entire deck of Potter characters (Hagrid is a duplicate King option, because he's Lisa's favorite), and each card shows the character at the beginning of book 1 and then the end of book 7, which is absolutely heart-destroying for Hagrid. (He's carrying baby Harry on one end, and Harry post-battle on the other.) John has the largest size of this Hagrid print hanging in his game room.


So there you have it, bots, which set do you like best? Tell me in the comments, and I'll pick three of you at random to win. I'll announce the winners in my very next post, so be sure to check back in a few days!

Also today is the last day of the month, so be sure you get your e-mail entry in by midnight for the Squeegineer's give-away if you haven't already. I want to give away ALL the things!

UPDATE: The give-away has ended!

The winner of the Droid print set is Amanda (with the blog Amidala)
The winner of the Tiki print set is Hayley

And the winner of the Potter print set is Lu L.

Congrats, you three, and please e-mail me your mailing address so I can ship those out!
