I Love…Jill Bliss!

Portland is brimming with talented artists and one of my favorites is Jill Bliss. Since moving to Portland, she has fallen in love with the beautiful houses and architecture and is paying tribute to them through her artwork. Jill is well known for her drawings of plant life and nature and I love seeing how her colorful textured style is adapted to architectural structures. You can shop her available prints, originals and more on her website and etsy shop (be sure to visit both as some different items are offered on each!). Check out her flickr to see lots of other amazing work she’s done – and don’t miss the photos of her Colors of Nature show at Together Gallery…tree houses!

I Love: The Neighborhood Series by Dovetail Shop & Studios!
February 27, 2009 at 9:01 am | In I Love | 1 CommentTags: art with houses, ceramics, dishware boutique, dovetail shop & studio, elsa + sam

While on an errand last week I finally stumbled upon elsa + sam, a fabulous dishware boutique on SE Hawthorne. I’ve always intended to check it out, but was afraid of my willpower…you see, I’m such a dishware lover that I’ve been cut off from bringing home any more dishes! Imagine my delight at discovering the Neighborhood series by Dovetail Shop & Studio, a duo of ceramic artists in Colorado. (I may have to sneak a purchase of that mug – maybe I could just use it in the office.) I just love the hand drawn buildings and the contrast of the black on shiny white. Anyway, while I may not be allowed to stock my cupboards with all of the fantastic creations at elsa + sam, I will most certainly keep them in mind the next time I’m shopping for a gift!
