Spotlight on: Karen Hallion's FAB fairy tale-inspired art!!

You guys may have seen in my most recent book haul that I received some Karen Hallion cards for my birthday (thanks Ksenia!!); I am so in love with Karen's clever mash-ups - and even more so because many of them involve fairy tales!  Because I think more people need to discover her (and, you know, get her t-shirts on Threadless, and stuff), I thought I'd do a little spotlight on some of her fairy tale work!

If you like what you see, make sure you help support her! Check her out on Etsy and Deviant Art, follow her on Facebook, twitter and tumblr - basically, stalk Karen just as much as I do... ;)



She has a whole series of fairy tale heroines meeting The Doctor.  Here are the two I have, followed by some more of my favorites:



She also has a series of steampunk princesses:


And I cannot even TELL you how enamored I am of this bookpage series:




And there is so much more!! Her designs are routinely turned into shirts on sites like Threadless, QwerTee and TeeFury, and you can also buy awesome prints and things directly from Karen through Etsy and support her awesome art (and I would highly suggest you do)!!

  1. I love them meeting the Doctor! Though the book pages are awesome as well!
    I am scared to go to her Etsy shop. I've bought so many fairy tale books this week, No telling what I'd come away with from her shop! I've got the fever!!

  2. I love Karen's art! I actually just bought two of her shirts from Yetee last week--the Mulan one you have pictured, and another Doctor Who shirt. I really, really want the Tangled print too.

  3. I really like the fairy tale/Tardis illustrations. Especially now that I'm a new fan of the show. :) Also LOVE the steampunk princesses. I'm actually thinking about writing a novel about Snow White in a steampunk world. :) I'll let you know if I actually manage to pull it off. :)
