Betsy Walton | Portland, OR

Betsy is a Portland artist I've seen on etsy and in person at Portland's Crafty Wonderland bazaar. Her work is surreal and intriguing. I've got one of her prints on my wall at home, of course (the one featured here!).
You can learn more about her work on her various web places. She's quite prolific and has a ton of work to browse through online.

Stephanie Levy | Munich, Germany

Stephanie's mixed media work combines linear and textural elements with bold color. I recently got myself her white sangria print which I am now enjoying having on my wall of prints!
You can buy affordable reproductions of Stephanie's originals on her etsy page: www.etsy.com/shop/stephanielevy, and she also has a blog where she shows some of her process and designs that are in progress or upcoming: stephanielevy.blogspot.com/.

Tali Yalonetski | Tel-Aviv, Israel

Tali's small paintings are candid and full of personality. I especially like those with several people in the composition, such as the one I have linked below (TV). Check out her work!

Michele Maule | Portland, OR

Michele makes whimsical mixed media pieces with chairs, typewriters, her dog Chloe, shoes... The pieces have a lot of character and color. I picked one up from Michele at the spring Crafty Wonderland event in Portland, but she also has an etsy shop www.etsy.com/shop/michelemaule - of course!

Dolan Geiman | Chicago, Illinois

My sister first introduced me to Dolan Geiman's work with a print she picked up in Chicago (not pictured here). Dolan's work is almost all mixed media, and he describes it himself as "Contemporary Art with a Southern Accent." You might find him at art/craft fairs around, well, from Texas to Wisconsin really - there's a schedule on his website www.dolangeiman.com. Of course, he also has an etsy shop at www.etsy.com/shop/dolangeiman.

Sarah Landwehr | Portland, OR

I've seen Sarah's work at craft fair events around Portland numerous times now, and I already admired the graphic quality of her wall hanging blocks (such as the black birds pictured); however, I fell absolutely in LOVE with her screen print of the two owls I've linked here and got one for myself. I just smile every time I pass it at the top of the stairs. Check out her etsy shop "Two Sarahs" at www.etsy.com/shop/TwoSarahs, or keep your eye out for her work at Portland craft events!

Yellena James | Portland, OR

I love the incorporation of organic/plant motifs and structures of microorganism in Yellena James' work. She also does a great job with her use of color. She has many many affordable prints available on her etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/yellena; or check out her main website www.yellena.com.
