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:

You know, I'm not sure that title works. ::squints:: I can't tell if you're going to read "bow" like "OW" or "bow" like, y'know.  
 
And even if you DO read it as bow-like-y'know, there's no guarantee you'll think that rhymes with bowl, OR that you're even familiar with the phrase "bowl you over."

Huh.

Nope, definitely doesn't work.

Still leaving it.

So this weekend had A LOT going on. I loved every second of it, love being busy helping other people, but I'm also a little...




Mostly when I look at the to-do list I've been putting off, ha.


First, since so many of you offered such great advice, here's how the party went down:







I complained in my Story that it took forever to tie 3 balloons together, and someone told me Command makes a doo-hickey for that?? Next time.

In fact the balloons in general betrayed me: everything looked so good, but then...


I'm always amazed just how weak ceiling paint it, ug. Next time I'll try painter's tape. After we repaint the ceiling.

The pretties:
