illustrations


We watched this movie very late last night. It is the most artistic movie I've seen in a very long time... or maybe ever. The gorgeous expressions have had me dreaming all day about some of my favorite works of art. Here are a few other illustrations that get my wheels turning when inspiration (or motivation) is lacking...
Gustavo Aimar...

Mary Blair...
Creative Thursday...
Working on a huge painting today for a gift. Can't wait to show pictures! Oh, and don't forget about the quilt... the precious, happy quilt. I better get to work while all the kids are asleep! What inspires you today?

  1. Gustavo's work is amazing. I wonder where he gets all his old papers? We haven't watched Coraline yet as our daughter only turns four tomorrow and I thought she might find it a bit scary... what do you think?

  2. our children are 4, 3 and 2... so they won't get to watch coraline for a long, long time. it was scary, even for us. we watched it with some friends after the kids were in bed. it's amazing.
