I can’t remember where I found Jen Skelley’s work for the first time, but it’s floating around the blogosphere for the last few days and I can’t stop thinking about it. Her paisley-ish bird prints make me smile, and she has done gig posters for the likes of The Decemberists and The Mountain Goats (two of my favorite bands!) so when I got to her shop and saw those two, I knew I had found something fantastic!
She also does custom hand-drawn monogram prints (for only $10!), which remind of antique children’s book illustrations and typography and would be a great gift for anyone that’s got a wedding coming up or as a house warming gift.
(and I just can’t get enough of these birds….there’s lots of them!)
So check out the Jen Skelley print shop and her lovely blog, too!
Have a fantastic week!

Yesterday Aqua-Velvet’s fabulous blog featured art from a 1950′s magazine that reminds me of Jen’s beautiful art. Here is the link: http://aqua-velvet.com/
