Graça Brohm

I know it's selfish, but Graça Brohm's blog is one of those addresses that you almost want to keep for yourself because it's so special. At least, I think so.


I have mentioned Graça's work a couple of times, actually. Remember her lad with a paper hat? And Nordeville, her colloborative project with Anne Walk ? 


Today, I wanted to show you some of her new work, a small series of miniature paintings commissioned by a new shop in Amsterdam. Gouache on wood, hand-sawn, sanded, painted and varnished by Graça, I think this little grouping of artwork would look stunning in a boy's room, don't you? 


I really appreciate Graça's clean, well-defined style. 


I've had my eye on her hand-moulded and handpainted clay magnet sets for a long time, admiring both the product and the presentation.

Perfect! And again, what a lovely gift these would make.

Graça is inspired by nature, folk art, fables, music and the people who surround her.She likes small worlds, small scale, precision and detail.

Have a look at Graça's portfolio and beautiful website. Her papercuts and tiny screenprints really are outstanding.

You can purchase Graça's work via her blog and shop (spider on the website). She is also in the process of setting up an etsy store, so please watch out for that!

Zoe de Las Cases



 I've been in love with her work from day one, it's perfect for me...
Just the right amount of colour, quirkiness and fun
 Modern retro with a feelgood vibe
Zest and sunshine all year round

Génial!

If I were to choose a new piece of artwork for our home it would have to be something by Belgian graphic artist Ronald Ceuppens. Seldom have I seen such beauty.

Ronald enjoys nature, going for long walks, hiking in the mountains or exploring the city.
He uses the sketches, drawings and objects collected during his walks to make the design for his prints, reducing the itineraries to their abstract form.

The Golden Loop

Fragments
Memory
Nostalgia for the past
The Search for future pleasure
Silence
and
Serenity

Ronald sells some of his smaller limited edition work in his Fleurografie etsy and bigcartel shops. He also has a beautiful blog.
