what a great mind he has. I really like what he paints. thanks for the introduction!
Oh I love it!!!

very fun and slightly off-balanced art. In other words, my kinda thing.
Ooooo. These are so cool. They have a real contemporary twist on a nostalgic look. If that make any sense. That's why I'm not an art critic.
Artwork reminds me of a show on Cartoon network called "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends"
I really like Lady Martha:) It's all in the perspective, I think. Great post as usual Sallymandy:)

Very CHARming & love the color combinations! ~Great weekend dear!!!
Isn't it great when you find art you love? I love the colours.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. Hope you found something that perked your interest. :)
Now this I really like. The vibe is so different from what I'm used to. You got a new follower.
Aww, these are lovely. Thanks, Sallymandy.
WoW! Now there's a talent if every I saw one. I love his/her use of line and colour, and the humour and lightness of touch is superb! Thanks for sharing this lovely art, Sallymandy.
Sallymandy...come by and get an award!
I have seen this artist's work around somewhere online as well...so fun, distinctive(in a retro illustration way) and also inspiring to me!
I see we both have the same good taste, sallymandy.
I've been following him on etsy and throughout the blogosphere for awhile now. I have been trying to decide which piece to by for my daughters room.
Wow! This is done with gouache! I thought that this was collage!
Fun! Fun! Fun!
Thank you!
Cynthia
Droll: Glad you like it, you artist/art critic, you.
Doreen: You're welcome!
Seeker: glad you like it!
Woman in W: Right. Off balance is good, IMO. :)
Pyzahn: It does make sense, perfectly!
Sher: Yes, I agree with you.
Ms Lucy: Thank you, kind friend. Isn't she great? She has attitude. Yet, strangely, no ears. Artistic license, I think.
Sachin: thank you for visiting, and for the nice compliment!
Lenore: Yes, charming is a great word for these. xo
Jane: There are so many of these artists on Etsy, too.
Suecae: Thank you for visiting and following. I'm glad you liked it. Yes, I did find your blog interesting and I'll come back too!
Stephanie: You're welcome; glad you like them.
Tessa: Well, coming from you, that comment means a great deal. Takes one to know one? I'm glad you approve of my taste! xo
Ms Lucy: thanks, you kind thing. xo
Gal: Why am I not surprised! Because you also have a beautiful talent for whimsy, fun, and distinctiveness. Like I said to Tessa, I'm glad you approve.
Hip: Have you? I like that. (I'd have a hard time picking one piece.)
Lilith: Right, impressive, huh? Do you work in gouache?
Cynthia: you're welcome, dear.
I love these...they have a 50's/60's pop art flavor. I shouldn't have looked at this because now I want to order one...the cat with the bird cages is especially cute.
