Psychedelic nature


I don't know whether this pretty iPad case is hallucinogenic as it's title implies, but I can tell you that this great illustration caught my attention! I discovered it in Rupy de Tequila store, the place were Ruth Fitta-Schulz showcases her amazing digital art. Rita has a rare sense of color and an imagination that brings forth playful childhood images.


It's difficult to decide on favorites from her amazing store. I could point out, though, that she has a special talent for unique, unprecedented Keds shoes designs, like this Dark Fruits beauty. Do check out her artwork: I guarantee you'll be pleasantly surprised!

Art deco pop

An art deco floral motif provides inspiration for this colorful roundel. It's great both as a standalone design and combined with this fine, discreet gray background.

I like the way the vintage elements blend in a contemporary, pop-ish way. The color combination is great, too!

It's been a long time since I added a retropop design and I'm really satisfied with this one. I believe you'll see more artwork along these lines in the future, quite possibly with a more surreal touch. Look for more products with the Flora Deco design in Surreality.

Clean elegance

This is an elegant letterhead based on an almost abstract artwork (plus some happy butterflies flying amongst the paint smudges!). You'll have to customize it,  which is super-easy, but it will be great to write on this smooth and tender design by Clean World, a shop full of abstract nature and textured finesse by John Finnegan-Allen.

I also liked this playful mouse pad:
Full of interesting details, yet simple, almost childlike. And the tiny blue flower is irresistible! You see, even Surreality Watch has it's softer moments!

Spring in red

Spring is here, lurking silently below the snow, infiltrating the cold winds, promising resurrection and already dreaming of summer. Enter this fine photograph of a poppy: a warm, red explosion in a serene field. It makes a great polaroid-like postcard, and you can find it in FA Photography. FA stands for both Felicitas Art and Friederike Alexander, a lady from Germany, who has a great eye for capturing beauty, especially in nature close-ups.
This is an image suitable for true daydreamers! Friederike's website has more of her astonishing work.

Bunnies dream of Victoriana

Bunny Dreams bag
Bunny Dreams by AnitaInverarity

What a crazy bag! Bunnies flying over psychedelic flowers -and a mouse. I really love their expression. The artist is Anita Inverarity from Scotland, a lady that does wonders with pen and ink, mainly in a Neo-Victorian style. Her work is both tender and mysterious, evocative of a nostalgic past (yet, at times, full of dark undertones of Gothic doom, or maybe I'm seeing things...)

Either way, there are great things to see in her store. Me, I would be happy with this great mug, where masquerade meets great artistry!
