I don’t have a little girl, but if I did, I’d definitely want to decorate her room with positive, joyful, encouraging, you-can-do-it-girlfriend types of things. Things a little less princess and a little more like the mixed-media artwork of Kelly Rae Roberts.

A former medial social worker turned full-time artist, Kelly creates vivid collages with a feminine flair that incorporate girl-power positive affirmations – in a cool way, not a Stuart Smalley way. You’ll have fun perusing her etsy shop for titles like Standing Tall, Leap Fearlessly, and Believe. Awesome.

Pieces like Side by Side and Grow would be so great for mothers and daughters, or so cute for sisters. Oh, to have a girl…

But wait, I am a girl! And I’m a daughter. And a sister. And a friend. And hey, good thing her 8×8 prints are priced in the $30 range (unless you’re jonesing for an original canvas).Because this is the kind of spirit and sentiment I want all my girls to have around. –Laura

Congrats to winner Sharon B who won her own print
