Miss Kika for Locketship

It's pretty rare that an artist get the opportunity to team up with a company that is an absolutely perfect fit, however that is the case with the new 'Sparkling Sea Collection' designed by Miss Kika for Locketship. The pairing of Miss Kika's lovely illustrations with this ornate, beautiful jewelry couldn't be more spot on. It reminds me of 'Sweet Sea'- from the eighties- anyone remember that? It was one of my favorites as a kid!

Bunnies & Bows at Japan LA

There's some really fantastic artwork available from the recent Bunnies & Bows show at Japan LA. I've included some of my favorites here, by Miss Kika, Michelle Romo, and Martin Hsu. See all the available pieces here.

Miss Kika for 'Magical Girls'

I loved this new piece by Miss Kika so much I thought it deserved it's own post! This is Miss Kika's contribution for the Magical Girls show! Phenomenal!

Pink Attitude: Contemporary Female Creativity

Compound Gallery's current show, 'Pink Attitude: Contemporary Female Creativity' features work from some of today's best female artists, including Fawn Gehweiler, Miss Kika, Candybird and more.

Show ends after this weekend, but you can check out the pieces online here.

Miss Kika

I've been a fan of Miss Kika's art for some time now, and have only just realized she hasn't been featured on the TokyoBunnie blog!

These super beautiful illustrations are done by Liz Lorini in San Francisco. All her gals are gorgeous, but her Marie Antoinette inspired ones are my current faves (this "Let them Eat Cake" tote really got me drooling).

Check out her website here, which has an amazing selection of prints, custom vinyl, and more, and make sure to see the pieces she contributed to the upcoming Pop! Pop! Show at Pink Ghost.

Miss Kika!
