We’re not gonna lie—it’s a pretty cool job to look at art all day.
We at s6 are constantly blown away by the intricate, unique, hilarious and mind-blowing pieces of artwork the S6 community uploads, so we decided to put together a round-up of some of our favorites of 2017. Check out which artists we loved discovering this year and which products gave us the opposite of buyer’s remorse:
Morgan Schutte
Marketing and Site Merchandising Manager
Fave Artist: Rebecca Flattley
“Her work captures so many emotions I feel on a daily basis. She’s so talented!”
Fave Product: LA City Art iPhone Case
“Love the colors and retro vibe. ALSO great protection for my phone. “
Jessica Parker
Senior Designer
Fave Artist: Dylan M
“I cannot get enough of her color choices. Her florals feel deftly and simply layered, vintage and modern at the same time. ”
Fave Product: Arthropod Mustard Backpack
“This artist’s work is super fun and probably geared toward kids, but this color combo felt pretty sophisticated. Also I love s6 backpacks. “
Alexis Martin
Acquisition Marketing Manager
Fave Artist: Helo Birdie
“She describes her signature style as “Where you would want to be right now” which I think is so true. Beaches, swimming pools… all of her pieces have a whimsical vacation-vibe to them.”
Fave Product: Poolside Framed Print
“This piece was featured in a Society6 Art Quarterly this year. I purchased a bamboo print version (which were specially made for the LA launch party). Looks great in my apartment! “
Vladimir Kroshinsky
Social Media Manager
Fave Artist: 27mm
“There’s something magical and very calming with 27mm’s underwater photography. I could spend hours staring at some of these pieces. ”
Fave Product: Tropical Duffle Bag
“This tropical cosmic leaf pattern looks incredible on a Duffle Bag. Feels like I’m packing for a vacation, even if I’m just going to the gym, which is exactly the vibe I was looking for. “
Lauren Hallett
Marketing and Site Merchandising Specialist
Fave Artist: Matthew Korbel-Bowers
“Being new to the S6 team, everything is new and fresh, but Matthew Korbel-Bowers definitely stood out to me. I love his designs and minimalist prints—the simplicity of his art makes for a classic look in any room.”
Fave Product: The Swim Framed Print
“I thought this piece was very cheeky (pun intended). Loved the style and fun nature of it and it looks wonderful as a framed print.”
Anthony Troester
Designer
Fave Artist: UzualSunday
“Bright colors and tropical vibes. I love everything about UzualSundays work.”
Fave Product: California Hot Sauce Print
“I love Landon Sheely’s vintage inspired art. As soon as I saw this piece I was sold. I love the colors and play on Tapatio’s hot sauce bottle design. This guy now sits proudly above my stairs.”
Stephanie Dixon
Editor
Fave Artist: Patricia Thomasson
“I love Patricia’s bold, but washed-out Warhol-esque still lifes. Her work feels fresh, but familiar, which is always a winning combination.”
Fave Product: Everyone Is Invited Clear iPhone Case
“Lorien Stern’s little creatures remind me of the Mrs. Grossman’s stickers I used to play with as a kid! Plus, everyone smiles when they see it and what’s better than that?”
Andy Fisher
Director Of Product
Fave Artist: SoCal Chic Photography
“I love living in Southern California and these photos capture the beauty of my neighborhood.”
Fave Product: Santa Monica Pier Laptop Sleeve
“The Santa Monica pier is an iconic symbol of the west side of LA and I love having this case for my computer.”
Daniel Kan
Retention Marketing Specialist
Fave Artist: Jack Teagle
“I love his character designs, clean lines and vibrant colors.”
Fave Product: Ghost World Art Print
“This piece looks amazing on my bedroom wall and I especially love the amount of detail that went into this. I notice something new every time I look at it.”
Abe Chong
Senior Copywriter
Fave Artist: Mr. Werewolf
“I’m a sci-fi, fantasy and video game geek. Though Jakub’s been on the site awhile I just discovered his concept art—it’s otherworldy, awe-inspiring and totally makes me want to write screenplays based on the worlds he’s creating. ”
Fave Product: Eyes Throw Pillow
“I picked this design for our new house because my girlfriend loves those “Eye” prints and this seemed like a cute take. She ACTUALLY liked it, which is amazing because she always questions my design choices. “
