Artwork: Cozy Night by Wendy Xu

This artwork is so cute and it's available to buy from the artist at INPRNT.

Art Find: A Bob's Burgers' Tina Belcher Poster

I was doing a search around Etsy and look at what I found, this Tina Belcher poster by Right Riot. Although Tina looks more like Velma from Scooby-Doo, I was thinking about getting this. It's pretty cool and I love the colors and the bold print.

Nesting: Looking for New Wall Art

Lately, whenever I walk into my living room all I can think about is changing the art on the wall. I really feel like I need a change and what I want to put up next is comic book art. What can I say, I'm a geek.

Earlier today while I was out, I bought a Wonder Woman poster. Now all I need to do if find a nice frame for it. I'm still looking for more posters and artwork including this X-Men poster that's pictured below. Isn't it cool, it's the cover art for the Marvel Now X-Men issue #1 and featured Jubilee, Kitty Pryde, Storm, Rachel Grey, Rogue and Psylocke.

X-Men issue #1 cover art by Olivier Coipel      $19.99 (sale, regular price $29.99) for the 36 x 54 in size     All Posters (allposters.com)

Art Find: Hollywood Land of Dreams canvas art

Isn't this beautiful? I love everything about it, from all the color (it definitely pops) to the Hollywood sign reflecting in her sunglasses.  

Hollywood Land of Dreams canvas art by Maxwell Dickson    $88.00 for size 16 x 20 (available in additional sizes)   Dormify (dormify.com)

When I look at this artwork, I can't helping thinking about the second season of Agent Carter when Peggy arrived in Los Angeles ready for a new adventure.

30 Days of Geek Chic, Day 19: A Roy Lichtenstein Mug

I love art hence why I'm always posting some kind of art of the day. For today's Geek Chic I found this mug by artist Roy Lichtenstein.

He was famous for creating these amazing pop art images which were sometimes influenced by comic book illustrations.

As a comic book fan, I just love the print on this mug because it looks like a scene from an old comic book.

30 Days of Geek Chic, Day 7: Framed Naruto and Sakura Artwork

For fans of Naruto and Sakura (or NaruSaku as some like to call them), I found five very beautiful framed pieces of artwork on Society6 by artist Kaleta.

Although there are eight different frames that you can select from, the artwork is also available to purchase without a frame.

Oh, I love them all and I could see arranging them on my wall as an art display. I do eventually plan to buy them and I want my first piece to be "Under the Same Umbrella". There is just something about that piece that I really like.

Nap Time by Kaleta   $32.00 (for the framed 12" x 10" size)  Also available in an additional size

Haters Gonna Hate by Kaleta    $32.00 (for the framed 12" x 10" size)  Also available in an additional size

Art Finds from the Museum of Modern Arts: 8 Cute & Quirky Finds

I don't know what it is about quirky pieces that I love, maybe it's how unique and interesting they are. Which is why I love visiting museum gift shops I can always find something unexpected or unusual.

This time I found some fun items at the Museum of Modern Arts gift store:

Art Finds from the DIA: Fashion Meets Art with a Frida Kahlo T-Shirt and a Superman Wallet

I don't know if everyone knows but I love going to the museum and checking out all the exhibits but also to check out the gift shop. And when I have some time, I love to search various museum websites to see what they have in their online gift shops.

I recently had a bright idea to start a new post called Art Finds where I will post fun, unique and interesting items from museum gifts shops. So for my first post, I found two fashionable items from the Detroit Institute of Arts Museum.

Frida Kahlo Neon Juniors T-Shirt   $28.00   Detroit Institute of Arts Museum (dia.org)

This is a really cute Frida Kahlo T-Shirt. It's available in basic white but what I love the most are the bright neon colors. The bright colors make the shirt standout more. Side note: There is a Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo exhibit at the DIA running until July 12th.

Mighty Wallet Superman by Dynomighty   $15.00   Detroit Institute of Arts Museum (dia.org)

You guys know I love comics and I always find it interesting that you can now find superhero stuff just about anywhere. Case in point this Superman wallet, like the character it's bright and colorful and according to the description durable. As much as I like this, I do wish there was something with Lois Lane on it. Maybe, I'll contact the museum and ask them.

Any way the description states that inside the wallet you see Clark transform into Superman.  It's tear-resistant, water-resistant, expandable and recyclable. Made from Tyvek which resist tearing due to the thousands of interlocking plastic fibers spun in random patterns, giving it incredible strength.

The wallet includes:

2 large pockets for cash and receipts
2 credit card pockets that expand to hold lots of cards
2 quick access business card pockets
4 writable Tyvek business cards included
