Super Fun : Nina Braun



LinkNina Brauns work is quirky and fun. She uses a wide range of materials and works in various mediums. From furry sculptures to skateboards, I really enjoyed exploring her portfolio. I think Lovesculpture might be my favorite... but there are so many great pieces to look at! Check it out here!

italian delight





My little sister brought me back the most adorable notebooks from her semester abroad in Rome, Italy. I decided to look up the company today, thinking that maybe they had other cute paper goods. Fabriano has lots of great stuff! I wish I could go to Italy and pick some up!

Thank you to my sister for artist recommendations today!

Polly Apfelbaum's work is fantastically beautiful.

Super Awesome



My little sister recently saw Nina Bovasso's work in New York. She def knows what I like and recommended I take a look at Nina's art. As always, I love the color and vibrance. I think some of these could translate very nicely into fun textile patterns!
