I am an artist.  I make modern mobiles and have a website that sells them.  http://www.humboldt1.com/~mobiles/ 

I love to create art, a big Calder fan obviously, musician (suzuki violin raised, a bass player in a band in the 80's) and follower of modern architecture, and just about everything mid century modern design style.

Born and raised in Champaign-Urbana, IL moved to Eureka, California in '79.  So beautiful up in Northern CA, giant redwoods, mountains, incredible ocean views ...and so very isolated and unpopulated. No wallmarts here! Yeah! A great place for artists to create.  Many green enviromentally organic thinkers here, and I am one of them.

It is 28"W x 34"H Black, red and white plastic petals and stainless steel arms. If anyone has seen this mobile, please contact me ASAP. » READ MORE

As nicely reviewed in The Daily Candy, this new baby mobile is getting some great attention!  A glow in the dark planet mobile designed and made by Julie Frith. Done similar to an Alexander Calder styled mobile form with linking balanced arms, this is a new look with a traditional art flair.  The planets are arranged in line and constantly glide, slowly moving with the air currents.  Hang under a center room ceiling light, this will b » READ MORE

Just say the mobiles...they are really cool. I use wall decals a lot and these would be a great addition to some of the modern designs. Have a look at this company's stuff if you want to get an idea of what some of the better wall decal stickers are out there. Here's the link http://slicksticks.com/wall_decals.htm
