Wednesday Art Feauture: Raquel Sanchez Pros

I don't always dicover artists through Deviant Art and art books, I was lucky enough to stumble upon Raquels work through seeing one of her brooches.
I discovered this wonderful brooch through reading a blog post by Lazy Explorers, I knew I HAD to buy it straight away.

She also has a few other brooch designs available:

 

I've absolutely fallen in love with the illustrations that she has available on her Etsy store, they're just the perfect mixture of cute and stylish. I will definitely be decorating my house with some when I can afford it.

Raquel lives in Valencia, Spain and worked for 7 years as a graphic designer before discovering her passion for illustration.

She's also pretty amazing at sewing. I just love these sewn illustrations:

Love & a Sandwich

By now you must all know just how much I love monsters. ESPECIALLY cuddly, cute monsters with mental expressions on their faces.


I've been considering deleting Love & a Sandwich from my facebook, because the temptation is getting too much, I NEED one of their fantastic little monsters. I have hinted lots to my boyfriend, so I better be getting one of these monstrous creations for Christmas or my birthday!!


These little cuties just melt my heart.

The very talented lady who makes these also does some awesome embroidery:
