I Spy Cool Art: Jill Ricci

Thanks to Pinterest, I recently spotted my new favorite artist-- Jill Ricci. If I were an artist-- this is what I would hope to conjure up. To me her art speaks of a bohemian, gypsy dreamland displayed in a way that keeps you looking for more. I love how the patterns bring continuity and order to the randomness and layers. As she puts it "I want the pieces to evoke an old wall in Morocco, a Renaissance Church, a NYC subway wall and Malibu Barbie all simultaneously existing on one canvas." I think she has accomplished just that.

Kinda looks like Granada pattern
Reminds me of Trellis pattern
