Artist // Jessie Breakwell


 I happened upon the work of Australian artist Jessie Breakwell the other night while cruising Pinterest. It was one of those situations where I could not get to her site fast enough. Her work is a visual feast! I literally cannot choose a favorite.




I can't help but see these as the most perfect centerpiece ever ever ever for a nursery. Like, huge mural style. Of course, that's coming from a girl whose daughter's nursery is the scariest of menageries you'll ever see. Apparently babies and animals just go together for me.

Her nudes are pretty unique as well. Would be fun in a tiny offbeat restaurant.
More of her enchanted brilliance here.

I'm turning 33 tomorrow, you guys. Whaaaaaaaat.
