The work of Roadside Projects is captivating because of it's 3 dimensional depictions. With pop-up works ranging from original pieces to prints and cards Roadside Projects has a little bit for everyone! I love the mixture of papers with textures and depth-- it's beautiful. The characters are also depicted in a somewhat captivating but unusual ugly-beautiful format. The unique quality of these items is what gives it the extra fabulous chic factor of 9.1.
Galerie De Illuminata specializes in digital collage... The images are beautiful and reminiscent of old photographs--with a touch of whimsy. The warmth of the colors in each print along with the rugged textures help to offset rather stoic subjects. There is definitely an air of irony in most of the portraits typically utilizing anatomical sketches. The end result is hauntingly beautiful. Chic Factor 8.1
After a few days.. we're glad to be back! Today's feature is Monkey Powered. Playfully strong and quirky-- Monkey Powered prints utilize a series of textures and patterns to give these delectable prints extra pow! Witty without being overly dramatic-- retro without being cliche. Perfect for a child's room-- or for a child at heart's room :o) Chic Factor 8.8
It's my pleasure to introduce our first fashion feature! Miss Braches, Inc---- I actually came across her work while looking for a custom dress to wear to one of my best friend's wedding. I fell in love with the Desi dress for not only it's shape but also the pattern. I contacted Diane and asked if it would be possible to get done in a week and a half-- she got it to me in a week! I LOVE everything about it-- The general style nods to retro fashion but with a more up beat feel to it! She has no problem making custom dresses-- even for the plus sized ladies out there! Simply beautiful! Chic factor 9.0!
I've been a long time follower of Duda Daze! I love her angelic mixed media pieces. Each work effortlessly incorporates relevant text with a wonderful image. Her images evoke a sense of peace and happiness. She sells a range of original works and prints-- that also include Aceo. Chic factor 8.8
Our first photography feature is Day Dreamer-- while she does produce a variety of art in various media-- my favorite is her photography. The images are beautiful in their close nature and array of colors. I especially love the photos of the old rusted cars. -- Done in a larger size they can be the center point of your room! Chic Factor 8.7
Cards you can print yourself? Get out! Little Brown Pen will sell the PDF file of the images/ templates for cards, calendars, and gift tags! This means you get to choose your paper and prints as many as you need-- when you need them! What a great idea! Her images are simplistic but always have an air of humor to them! The best part is --- they only cost $4 - $5 per file! Today's feature Little Brown Pen gets a chic factor of 8.5!
Whisker Graphics utilizes silk screening and digital art to create the beautiful graphics on her cards. Her designs incorporate vintage items, animals and elegant designs with themes for any occasion imaginable or for every day use. You can even have your cards customized with you name or initials which comes complete with a matching themed envelope. Often very intricate in detail, the images are reminiscent of letter press. These would be perfect for customized wedding invitations! Chic Factor 8.9
It's my pleasure to introduce our first hand thrown porcelain artist, Lois Aronow of Misslo. What is most striking about her work is the juxtaposition of the textures. Her work is striking beautiful yet functional! Perfect for display out in the open of the kitchen or in a glass cabinet. I imagine drinking hot chocolate out of her white mugs with platinum rim on a cold winter's day ( I think because the texture is reminiscent of a nicely toasted marshmallow) -- I'd feel like royalty! Chic factor 8.5
