I'm one lucky chick - I'm friends with Australian cutie and outstanding artist, Bei Badgirl! Not only is Bei gorgeous, but talented too. Her art blends the line between anime, cute, sexy and, well, being a bad girl! Bei normally draws out her art on wood or another hard surface then cuts out the art with the help of a saw. Bei paints worlds, not just women. Her ladies are almost always accompanied by small cakes, sweets, animal friends or bling! I adore the detail and love she puts into every piece. 

Bei talks about where she finds her inspiration: 

"I’m really fascinated by the concepts of indulgence and excess, sex and desire. I guess that’s why there’s a lot of oral fixation, sparkly things and food going on in my pieces. I also like that so much of what I’m essentially obsessed with isn’t real or tangible- the idea of falling in love with imaginary things." 

Bei is a true original! Check out some of my favorite paintings by Bei in the gallery below.

If you could take home one of her cute animal friends, which would it be? Comment on the photo with your vote!
