i ♥ art

hello again! lately i have been obsessed with art. it is pretty much all i want to buy at the moment. there are sooo many talented artists out there that i love so i  thought i would start sharing a few of my favourites.
my friend introduced me to this artist many years ago. i love him.
kurt halsey

i can't even pick a favourite. i love his style so much and i love all the cute words that he incorporates into the pieces. one of my all time favourite artists! :)

i hope everyone had a good weekend. talk to you soon!

    so many people have told me i would regret my kurt halsey half sleeve but over three years later, i still love it like i did the day i got it. the four pieces (and little piggies from "numb") all mean so so so very much to me. he's truly brilliant.

    For some reason his drawings remind me of childhood. They are great! I'm visiting via Freckled Nest and am glad I've found a great new blog. P.S. Love you shop too--the hair bows are precious.

    LOVE Kurt. He had an exhibit here in PDX a few years ago. I was lucky enough to meet him and have a picture snapped with him and snag a few autographs on some prints. He was fantastically nerdy and wonderful. It made me love him even more.
