July Favorite- SeaSprayBlue

i decided i needed to bring back the favorites, but with a different angle at it. instead of choosing 24 a month (that really was hard and very time consuming), i'm going to pick 1-3, depending on what i see. to start back up, i decided to have the random number generator pick the shop in my favorites that i would post.

SeaSprayBlue




this was the print that introduced me to SeaSprayBlue on etsy. the muted color scheme and whimsical style immediately drew me in. i still plan to purchase this print and find a place- even create a space- for it to live in our home. i then stumbled upon this print while shopping for a friend's shower gift.



if i would have started shopping earlier, i would have ordered this print for her. each piece has a definitely thoughtfulness to it and each emotion within the print is portrayed in a very careful and gentle way- not over the top and in your face.



though a wide range of storylines and subjects are apparent in SeaSpray's work, the colors and style bring a cohesiveness to her work. definitely one of my very favorites- and one of my first hearts given out! if you have a few moments, follow the link to SeaSpray's shop and take a look around for yourself. this print below was one we considered hanging on the two walls looking into the dining room from the living room, but opted for a letterpress piece instead. i still wouldn't mind owning it, however ;-)
