Peek Into Emily’s Etsy Cart – 6 Of Her Favorite New Artists And Vintage Dealers

I often forget that I have access to things like Emily Henderson’s Etsy account. And boy, any time I’m told to take a look to find a link for a blog post I get a little twinkle in my eye because I rememeber that I get to see everything she’s saved, what she’s purchased I might not yet know about, and what’s sitting in her cart…awaiting the all powerful purchase buttom. So when she was recently talking about all the great art she’s been finding on Etsy, I asked if I could do a post on the artists and dealers she’s currently loving. A you can tell from the fact that I’m writing this post, she said “no way!” to gatekeeping and “of course!” to sharing her awesome finds. Emily’s eye for art is just the best. Every time I’m on the art hunt, I honestly think to myself, “Would Emily buy this?” and it helps. This isn’t to say I think our personal styles are the same, they aren’t. But Emily is a stylist, an art mixing pro, and a lover of everything cool and good. If it’s awesome, she’ll always approve. Actually, I used my little imaginary Emily art consultant while buying a piece of art in Oaxaca last week. The real Emily hasn’t seen it yet, but I have a solid feeling she’ll approve. But naturally, conjuring a little Emily may not be as easy for those who haven’t had the pleasure of working for her for 8+ years. So this little roundup of artists and dealers will not only introduce you to awesome art, it’s Emily-approved in a real way instead of an imaginary one:) There are a variety of prices, styles, and mediums, so click through to see what you like. Etsy is our favorite online place to find unique art, but the scrolling can feel endless. We hope this post helps.

Wallflower Art Gallery

Vintage “GOLDEN DUSK ABSTRACT” Original Swedish Oil Painting | Vintage “FIELDS & MOUNTAINS” Belgian Original Landscape Oil Painting on Canvas

Starting out VERY strong with Wallflower Art Gallery. This Etsy shop has mostly vintage art with some contemporary, and it’s all so good. The green landscape piece has my whole heart and really reminds me of the one that Marlee and I were both drooling over at The Carly, where we stayed for our EHD team retreat. The prices are on the less budget-friendly side, but if you do have some budget or have saved for a special piece, definitely go check this shop out.

Brooke Rowe Art

ORIGINIAL Fine Art Modern Abstract Collage Minimalist Contemporary Decor Mixed Media | Modern Abstract Collage Art Print Minimalist Decor

As soon as I saw Brooke’s pieces saved, I thought, “Oh, I like these!” Her inventory definitely isn’t huge, but if you can get your hands on one of her collages, they are really affordable. That’s not so easy to come by for original art. The textures and patterns she uses are interesting and fun, but still neutral enough to go in any home. These pieces, float-mounted on a linen mat, would be so beautiful and make them look very expensive.

Maarten Leon

Reaching Higher | What Freedom Would Be

For a different type of collage, let me introduce you to Maarten Leon. His pieces are fun, chic, and minimal, and he offers other colors aside from blue, although we are partial to those, ha. If you know Emily, then you know she’s a huge fan of cool collage art (which is also apparent in this post), but the extra wonderful thing about this shop is that they are also affordable! Each piece ranges from about $23 to $85 (before shipping), depending on the print size you choose. The reviews also comment on how great the quality of the prints are. I would put either of these above in my home.

Lu Rotsen Abstract Art

Moody Minimalist Abstract | Modern and Contemporary Blue Wall Art

I was not surprised at all to see very cool oil paintings in her cart. Emily LOVES oil paintings. Artist, Lu Rotsen, has so many amazing options in a ton of different colors. These two, of course, are very much in the Emily Henderson color palette, so that’s why they are being featured:) The average piece runs about $100, and they ship from the US (Los Angeles to be exact)! I also want to mention that these pieces are small, which I also love. Perfect for a gallery wall addition, a shelf, or an unexpected spot. Sky’s the limit, but I wanted to make sure you knew. Oh, but they come framed, and you have two different wood options!

Nataly Mak

Oyster Oil Painting | Orange Original Painting Fruit Still Life Art

I have to be honest that I was a little surprised when I saw the oyster and wine piece on Em’s favorited list. It’s not because it isn’t awesome and fun, but because it’s not Emily’s typical style of art. But what did I literally say in the opening paragraph? “If it’s awesome, she’ll always approve.” So there you have it. Nataly Mak’s work has an Anthropologie art vibe, but at a much better cost. Oh, and some of her pieces (like the oyster and wine one) are MADE TO ORDER! So you’re getting an original piece regardless of whether it’s been sold before. But then, for others, you have the option of the original or a print for a more affordable price, like the orange slice piece above. So much variety in her shop.

By Aleth

Visage | Strata

If you’ve been looking for minimal, mostly neutral, original art, then By Aleth is for you. Each piece is one of a kind, and the artist uses a variety of mediums. The art is made in Australia, but the shipping is free, and the pieces themselves are extremely affordable, especially given that they are originals. These would easily add such a simple but interesting texture to any room. Another gem that Emily found:)

Well, I hope this was as fun and exciting for you as it was for me:) Art should be personal and meaningful, so finding pieces from the artists themselves that speak to you is pretty special. Maybe that happened for some of you today and you feel even more confident knowing Emily likes them too. If you have any artists or dealers you’d like to share, drop them in the comments!

Love you, mean it.
