Etsy Artist: Yellena James Bringing Pen and Ink To Life


I love Japanese art..
"The Great Wave of Kanagawa" by Hokusai
is one of my favourite pieces of art - ever.

I actually have a print of this work and four others waiting to be framed for my living room..

There's something enchanting about his style, such movement and emotion captured so delicately.

So when I found Yellena James work on Etsy I was instantly taken in..




After reading her profile I discovered she has produced works for Anthropologie - of course!




She works with pen and ink and marker.. such simple tools to create these richly detailed drawings.




These hard-edged geometrics worked in are unusual in her pieces -
 they add a more surreal vibe, don't they? 




At the moment she is having a print sale, 
so mosey on over to her Etsy shop and splurge!

Your walls will thank you :)


Maybe - Print


I had a few minutes yesterday to peruse Etsy and found some outstanding fall clothing -
 try to share this weekend..
Off to back to back bbq's this weekend - trying to squeeze out every last drop of summer.

What are you all up to?


til next time..

I do not have any tatoos but if I was going to get something placed on my body permanently I would hire this artist to design it for me.

Ang, the thought had crossed my mind as well! Definitely something I could be happy with for the long haul..
