Inspiration and Appreciation: It Looks Good to Me

I love, love getting Daily Candy in my inbox every morning. The contents don't always strike my fancy but today, I found a new artist and her website. It Looks Good to Me. I am especially in love with her illustrations that are brought to life with watercolors:

This one could totally go on my kitchen wall at home. Especially considering how much I love my red wine :).

This may sound weird but this work reminds me very much of Carrie Bradshaw in the first few seasons of Sex and the City. I think it's because it was the first time I'd ever seen someone wear ankle socks with heels. And it looked fun and trendy :).

Titled, Make Love Not War, is just beautiful to me. I like that its slightly morbid with the hard gray of the gun and blossoming deep pink (reminds me a bit of blood) of the rose. It's a beautiful and striking contrast. I don't know where I put it up in my house. . .  maybe in the living room?

 And of course this is a favorite of mine because she's a redhead! What can I say? Redheads only make up 1% of the population and I'm proud to be a part of it :). I particularly like it though because although the illustration is one dimensional, the watercolors make it move. I feel like at any moment, she could wink at me, blow me a kiss and saunter off the page with her fire red hair blowing in the wind. I think this one might be going up in my room sometime soon.

Enjoy!
