Wednesday Art Feature: Kinomi

Kinomi is a Netherlands based artist who specialises in surreal and beautiful painted illustrations. What I love most about Kinomis work is the colour palette she uses. It takes the painting to a whole new cold and magical place.

Kinomi grew up in a small forest house surrounded by animals and nature. She spent most of her days as a child drawing and painting from her imagination. Her illustrations are still very much inspired by her childhood, I love the whimsical characters and the dark forests she paints.

Time for Tea

Remember the lovely Renee from Antiquarian Miss And her beautiful Tea cup collection? Well, a couple of weeks ago Renee asked me to do her some tea cup themed shoes based on her fav tea cup! I loved the idea of painting some little whimsical tea cup shoes so I got to work!

Here are the finished shoes, I'm really happy with them and I hope Renee is too!
This is my new style of brogues, I have them in stock in a dark brown or black, in most sizes! Shoot me an email if you'd like your own custom shoes: ponychopsshop@gmail.com

Etsy Shop Feature: Yalonetski

Yalonetski is the shop of Elya Yalonetski, a ceramic artist based in Berlin. She studied ceramics at Abramtsevo Art and Industry College in Russia.

Elya's works are an eclectic mix of cute, charming, whimsical and a little creepy. They remind me of fairy tale characters.

Wednesday Art Feature: Akumu-Kurai

Akumu-Kurai is a spanish artist who specialises in portraits in her own unique style. I love the way she incorporates pattern and fashion into her work. Akumu manages to take a simple colour scheme and a simple portrait and make it into a feast for your eyes. She finds patterns and textures where others wouldn't.






Akumu also has a blogspot where you can see more of her work.

Wednesday Art Feature: Vilde D. Ulriksen

Vilde D. Ulriksen, otherwise known as Mokinzi, is another artist I came across on Deviant Art. I immediately fell for the gentle and whimsical feel of her work. Her work is full of haunting eyes and beautiful, yet confused looking creatures.

Mokinzi is an 18 year old artist from Norway. She is a fan of vintage toys and dolls, which I think shows greatly in her style of work. She does commissions at very reasonable prices too, check her deviantart for prices.





If you want to see more of Mokinzi's work, check out her Tumblr and Blog.

Wednesday Art feature: Nekranea

I'm going to try and post a new art or craft feature each Wednesday from now on.
I thought i'd start off with a completely inspiring and talented artist named Nekranea.
I first stumbled upon her DeviantArt account a few months ago and immediately fell in love with the creatures she makes.

Nekranea is a spanish artist, she specialises in one of a kind art dolls made from polymer clay (painted with acrylics) and needle felting. She displays her work beautifully in woodland scenes, making them look like real creatures.








Nekranea is not just a talented doll maker, she is also a great illustrator and has a shop where you can purchase prints, clothing, decorations and lots of other things featuring her artwork.



If you want to see more work by Nekranea check out her personal website, shop, Deviant Art and blog.
