A mixed bag of illustration projects from Venice, California-based Allison Kunath. The thing they all have in common? An underlying theme of connectivity, each one exploring different aspects of the word, such as connection to self, connection to others, and connection to nature.

These bold, graphic pieces by Zin Helena Song just about jump off the wall at you. Well, at least they appear to even though they’re actually paintings on wood. The illusion of 3D is strong with this one.
More good things coming to us by way of Australia, this time in the form of AURA by Tracie Ellis. High quality homewares inspired by years of global meandering, my favorites of which are the stoneware ceramics for the kitchen. With plenty of brights and pastels to choose from they’ll mix seamlessly with whatever you’ve already got going on in your cabinets.
Brooklyn-based illustrator and designer Abbey Lossing has such a fun style, I love it. A lot of her work comes from her day job over at BuzzFeed, but her best advice to artists trying to get out there is to “make lots of art and put it on the internet” and I have to agree. Pick up one of Abbey’s prints in her shop!
New Hampshire-based artist Michelle Morin creates the most beautiful watercolors inspired by imaginary worlds and narratives within nature. I especially like the way she so expertly layers the various elements and ends up with such harmonious looking works. As lovely as the real thing.
Sage and Clare is my kind of boho – global treasures that are handmade, soulful, and eclectic. Husband and wife duo Chris and Phoebe’s passion for color, texture, and objects with heart comes through with every piece. Serious about ethical practices, they spend months every year working side by side with weavers, block printers, and screen printers to bring Sage and Clare designs to life.

Carly Foulkes wears a few different artistic hats, and well, but my favorite is her dreamy collage work. Interestingly enough she never glues her work down, allowing herself to reuse pieces again and again. It all seems to fit together with a philosophy of constant change and evolution, just like in Carly’s work. Swing by her shop to scoop up a piece for yourself.
The Alphabeta pendant lamp is a structural showstopper consisting of twenty-four different interchangeable spun-steel shades in eight different shapes – including various shaped bowls, cones, and tubes. It’s the world’s first digitally customizable pendant lamp with more than 10 billion possible combinations. When Alphabeta is displayed in groups it is likened to the letters of the alphabet forming words.
