Whenever I want to be inspired, I have to look no further than the world wide web (does anyone call it that anymore?). I find that sometimes just googling a subject + the word "paintings" and perusing the image results can be enough to get lost in a world of extremely talented and creative artists...

Who have I discovered this way lately? Two amazing artists who paint yoga poses in very different ways. Take a look below!

Painter #1: Debbie Miller
A Rhode Island based painter, Debbie Miller is an extremely accomplished artist. But, I'm in love with her "daily painters" paintings--each piece is 6 x 6," very affordable, and a truly gorgeous, mini piece of art. A few of my favorite are below, but you can view more of her work on blog and her website.

Painter #2: Corinna Luyken
A west coast painter, Corinna Luyken has a beautiful card collection, an amazing Etsy shop, and is also quite the illustrator. Her primary medium is watercolor & ink, which really interests me, as I've been experimenting more and more with watercolors these days.  Plus, I LOVE the concept behind Luyken's yoga pose series! A few of my faves are below, but you can see more of her work on her website, here.

Just looking at these artists' work makes me want to do all the things I love--yoga, paint, and create! I am truly inspired by these paintings.

What inspires you?

Namaste!
