I love this little series, Portrait of a Gown, that BHLDN posted today. The photography is beautiful and the neutral tones are serene and romantic. I had to share my favorite shots.

Ryan Oldcastle is an artist from the Netherlands but now resides in New York with his beautiful and equally talented wife, makeup artist Jen Lombardo. Not only is he a unique painter but a singer/songwriter as well.

His color palette is lively, rich and electric. Perfect for a party! Think carnival or nautical themed events or even a 4th of July celebration. He sells original paintings and prints in his Etsy shop so check them out and get inspired.

I am happy to share my new little addition to the blog, my color palettes inspired by the things I love. The first is Art Inspired Color Palettes but there will be more coming soon. You can access the palettes from the menu on the right. Each week I plan to post at least two so come back and check in often. To introduce each one, I will add a new post with a little about each artist. Hope you all can find inspiration in what inspires me.

The first addition!

Paola is an artist from Cordoba, Argentina. You can find her illustrations in her Etsy shop, Holli. I am drawn to her delicate lines and soft palette of color. Her work is whimsy, childlike and simply beautiful. Look to her drawings when planning a wedding, bridal or baby shower and parties for children.
