Artist: Lilla Jizo






When I was little I would walk around outside for hours looking for the perfect rock to paint into an animal. It had to be just right and when I found it I knew it just had to be an owl or a squirrel. Because of that, I feel like I have a real connection to these pieces by Lilla Jizo. They are made out of Scottish pottery that was washed up by the ocean and then made into these lovely pieces of art with acrylic and charcoal. Of course I love the kitty, but that little girl with the flower is calling me too. To find out more about these works and how they were created check out the Lilla Jizo blog and Etsy store. And next time I visit my parents I'll see if I can find some of the rocks I painted when I was little to share with all y'all.
