Pakayla Biehn Paintings

I find these stunning paintings by Pakayla Biehn so intriguing and magical.
Pakayla Biehn has based this series on double exposure photography by a variety of photographers including Alex Welsh, Kendall Paulsen and Tanya Prilukova. You can find more information at her website, here.

Note: Sorry for originally calling these beautiful works 'photography' in the header, don't know why!

Eveline Tarunadjaja

Happy Whimsy Wednesday! (I think that this is actually the first time I have actually posted on a Wednesday... oops!)

Today, I'm showing the wonderful work of Eveline Tarunadjaja (a favourite artist of mine for a few years now!). I love her quirky and fantastical ideas portrayed in her artwork, as well as the lovely subtle but bright colours she uses, and the masses of delicate lines that create the hair! 

I'm sorry to say that you will not hear for me for another few days because I am off to Adelaide to brave the masses for the Big Day Out. It's my first music festival so I'm super excited! I'm sorry to miss Fashion Fridays though, they have become a favourite of mine!

Courtney Brims

Another of my favourite illustrators is Courtney Brims. Her work is so delicate and pretty, but also quite sinister. I think this portrays the feel of fairy tales really well, they are childrens tales that we are familiar with and know as being happy and entertaining, but they have been adapted to suit our modern day society, and they were often quite dark originally. I can relate to her work really well because I too, am inspired by fairytales and stories.

For more of her work, check out her website, http://www.courtneybrims.com/, where all of these images came from, or her blog, http://www.courtneybrims.blogspot.com/.

Are you inspired by any stories, myths, legends or fairytales?
