For as long as I can remem­ber, art has been a pro­found source of joy and is some­thing for which I main­tain a healthy appetite. The por­tion of my brain rel­e­gated to art is no doubt the major­ity which might explain my dis­taste for all things trigono­met­ric or vacuum-related. Any­way, I tend to spend a lot of time seek­ing out new work, artists and sources of inspi­ra­tion. While I visit muse­ums and gal­leries as much as pos­si­ble, there are so many online sources from which to derive inspi­ra­tion these days that it is almost staggering.

Lately, I’ve been look­ing at illus­tra­tion more and more. Today the work of Iveta Abolina, also know as OneSwee­t­Or­ange has caught my eye. I tripped over her by way of Etsy.com and imme­di­ately found a num­ber of her pieces that I would love to hang in my home. The graphic qual­ity of her work and the organic flow of the com­po­si­tions excites my eye. Here are a few of my favorites from her Etsy shop:

Son­net

For­bid­den Thoughts

Lit­tle Bird

At $20-$50USD, most of her work is ter­ri­bly afford­able; the only ques­tion is, which to buy? Take a look at Irena’s Etsy Shop and more of her illus­tra­tions and design work at OneSweetOrange.com.
