Hand Illustrated Art Prints by Parada Creations on Etsy


Hello world!

It's a blazing hot sunny (and humid) day here in Miami, whoooo!  That is a wiping-my-sweaty-forehead type whoooo, not the excited kind.  Luckily our A/C is working again, it randomly stopped last night and we slept with windows open and fans racing.  I woke up feeling like someone slathered my face in oil, or like someone was melting it off altogether, ugh.  We are some spoiled humans I tell ya, live without A/C in Miami for just a few hours and you deserve an award.  Anyway, I would love to do some gardening, but between the sun, heat, humidity, and killer mosquitos - forget it.  I am going to my boyfriend's house to make mini Key Lime Pies!  In the words of Rachel Ray: YUM-O!  Nothing says refreshing like Key Lime Pie coming out of the freezer after a couple of hours.... Mmmmm!

Okay, so today I want to share the whimsical artwork of Susana Parada!  I came across the above print and instantly fell in love with the colors, the artwork, and the message.  Susana creates oodles of original hand illustrated art prints with vibrant colors and inspiring words aimed at provoking smiles and brightening ones day.  I visited her shop only to swoon a bit further over pages upon pages of adorably creative prints!  Universe knows I wanted to share them all with you, but here are just a few...  You should definitely check out her store Parada Creations on Etsy! 

I hope you have a great Monday!

One of my favorite prints, apart from the "Dream a Pretty Dream" one, is this Astrological Zodiac print.  Each illustration is so detailed and A-DORABLE!  Susana also makes individual ones for each sign, like the spectacular ram for my sign....


We should always do our best to think this way....



That it is...





Never stop reading!


The birds in this print remind me of the scene in Cinderella when the birds help sew her dress... hehehehe...


This garden girl loves this print and whole-heartedly agrees...


I always say this... arghhhh! LOL :)





Speaking of love, I'm lovin' this message...
