enamoring artists

the diva over at freshly{blended} is killing me lately with her incredible artist's finds. i'm so taken with them, i just have to post about them too. thanks, nicole!

(julie west has a great sense of form & color & whimsy. a ton of her work can be found here & here . those of you who know me well, know why i'm smitten with this particular piece.)

(brandi milne's luscious paintings were recently shown in portland oregon, and she is based in huntington beach, ca. the colors & shapes, as if flowing through water, are so alluring & beautiful.)

(uk based artist richard sweeney's magnificent creations ~ like an extremely advanced origami, these sculptures are made of paper. intricate, captivating, and awe-inspiring.)
