Inflated/Deflated is a project by three Chicago-based creatives – Jillian, Lauren, and Kady. Everything from quotes to memories are written on the faces of inflated balloons. Once deflated they take on an entirely different art form. You can even purchase some of the balloons in their etsy shop.

I absolutely, definitely, 100% need to get myself the Scorpio print from this series by Andrea Daquino. Actually, I wouldn’t mind owning the entire horoscope collection in all of its mixed media loveliness.

Globes are so 2011. Each of these decoupaged works of art from ImageNations is a globe with a previous life and plenty of character. {via BB-Blog}

His delicately embroidered patterns make an act that could be seen as precious or garish completely breathtaking. You can check out the entire exhibit at the Saatchi Gallery, who always hosts the most amazing artists.

I can’t get enough of Hong Kong-born, Canadian-raised Andrea Wan‘s whimsical, muted illustrations. They’re good stuff.
