This is an exciting slide show, one of my favorites, because I tend to lean towards nature, animals, and imagery of women in nearly all of the artwork I buy for myself and friends. Organic circles are another fascination of mine. It’s funny to look around the home after your collection of art really starts to come together — you see such a definite pattern in what turns you on or not.
In case you’re shopping around for some lovely gifts, or just on the prowl for a few new (to you) etsy artists to discover, I invite you to explore the latest etsy slide show that I pulled together for Domino magazine online. It’s so colorful and if you click around the artists’ individual stores, you’re certain to unearth many of your own faves.
I own work by most of these artists, in fact all of the slide shows that I pull together for Domino highlight my personal favorites, many based on my own personal experience with the artist or that of decor8 readers who have suggested them to me. Viewing art up close and personal and/or hearing your personal opinions about the work of others greatly assists me when I write, so thank you for that. You can trust that I’m confident on both the quality of the work and how these ladies conduct business and they’re all class acts. You can count on it.
View the slide show here.
Warning: These are some very pretty ladies, you may want to take all of them home.

A lovely collection, Holly!
I notice here — as well as on my own Etsy wanderings — that so many of the figural images on the site (as well as those from other popular illustrators) depict little girls.
It makes me wonder why that is, and why we grown women are so drawn to them.
I’ll have to ask my shrink friend about that one! ;-)
All the best,
Leah
