Forest of Limbs (Ode to Aimé). Watercolor on paper. 8 x 8″. $60 CAD. (approx. 62.18 USD) Purchase here! 

One of my favorite artists I’ve had the pleasure of finding/meeting on the internet, Devon Sioui (aka Nervrom)has a bunch of new items in her Etsy shop! I have been mostly looking forward to her jewelry pieces (and I don’t even wear jewelry, that’s how much I like them!) but was momentarily distracted by these watercolor pieces. It’s awesome to see her iconic abstract style shifted onto a different medium.

Looking Up (Feathers In My Hat). Watercolor on paper. 8 x 8″. $40 CAD (appox. $41.45 USD) Purchase here!

Corazón. Hand-Accented giclee print on canvas. 8 x 10″. Edition of 5. $75 USD. Purchase here! 

This beautiful still life is by acclaimed contemporary painter, Cate Rangel. Her subject matter is usually portraits of women, so this was a pleasant surprise to find in her shop! These prints are in very small editions, and each has some acrylic paint accents, which makes every print an original, and unique work of art. Considering most of her original paintings are above the Shop Art Direct budget, this is a fantastic deal!

Check out Cate’s other canvas prints, original paintings, and prints on paper at her store!

Mapping an Escape, Map 2. Mixed media on paper. 6 x 7.5″. $35 USD. Purchase here!

I love it when artists are able to blend many different materials into a single piece of artwork so seamlessly. The mixed media works of Rebecca Volynsky include ink, gouache, arcylic paint, thread, gel gloss medium and possibly more. Her pieces are far from confusing and chaotic, however. The compositions are simple and I find them quite calming.

The Storm. Mixed media collage on paper. 8 x 10″. $40 USD. Purchase here!

Unsurprisingly, Rebecca’s talent extends beyond art on paper as well. She also makes jewelry and enameled leaves. Visit her Etsy shop to find even more!

Fade White Decay. Hand-distressed print on handmade paper. 14 x 20cm (5.5 x 7.9″) Edition of 30. $75 AUD (approx. $79.20 USD). Purchase here!

To build upon my love for hand-colored prints from yesterday, I fell for this Jessica Stewart print and its delicate, unique touches. From her listing: “each print is distressed individually, spray painted and drawn on to create a unique mix between a print and new artwork.”  All prints are numbered and signed limited edition pieces that have the same base but grow into individual pieces. Inspiring, to say the least!
