Katrien Vogel

Posted on

I really can’t find out too much about Katrien Vogel but that doesn’t stop me from loving her works. She is based in the Netherlands and was a part of the 2012 Paper Biennial Rijswijk at the Museum Rijswijk as well. Amoebas! I went into Google Translate to try to figure out her materials and it looks […]


Georgia Gremouti

I’m not sure what I’ll do here on the blog if Neil leaves the Netherlands. Without him there I never would have heard about the 2012 Paper Biennial Rijswijk at the Museum Rijswijk in The Netherlands. But no need to worry because there were incredible artists there to keep me busy including Georgia Gremouti, a […]


Sigrid Neuwinger

Lots of things have been happening over here the last few weeks – from going away for Thanksgiving to getting engaged! Yay! Such a fun month but now, back to blogging Thanks to the ever awesome, Neil, I came upon Sigrid Neuwinger. I can tell you practically nothing about her or her work as everything […]

There is a blog – I think based in France – which I’ve mentioned here before, Murmure Visible. The writer, Marie-Andree Cote and I share a similar taste in artists. I often find new artists on her site and see ones I’ve written about on hers as well. I have no idea if she’s ever […]


Peter Crawley

In my day job I work with several music companies and one of their creative directors recently sent around the link to the website of Peter Crawley. Peter creates what he calls Stitched Illustrations and they often take on the form of musical visualizations. One of my favorite parts of his work is that you don’t […]


Emily Miranda

I love items, art, products and more that are inspired by nature and Emily Miranda’s jewelry takes that love to a new height with literally putting nature on your wrist, finger, neck, etc. That’s a bangle friends. Isn’t it glorious!? Shells, coral, leather, pearls, etc. What’s not to love? Emily’s work is all made in […]

Beili Liu is an artist and a teacher. Today she is an associate professor of art at UT-Austin after coming to the US from Jilin, China and studying in Michigan and Tennessee. Her installation pieces use so many different materials from typical ones like thread and wool to Chinese spirit money. The above is made […]


Anna Gunnarsdottir

Posted on

A lot of times I bookmark things and then forget I did it. I should just Pin them but sometimes I Pin things I haven’t written about yet and then get confused – I’m sure you’re sensing a trend here! Anna Gunnarsdottir ended up on a “Stickie” on my desktop but all I had was […]


SerpentSea

Posted on

It’s been a while since I’ve written about a product here and when I came across Sophie Aschauer and SerpentSea I thought – this is perfect! Sophie creates mats and key fobs out of recycled nautical twine, which comes in a variety of colors. When I first started the Yurt Project three years ago I used […]


Jennifer Forsberg

Posted on

I have no recollection of how I stumbled upon Jennifer Forsberg but I’m going to assume it was through photos of her work on Pinterest. There are some incredible people curating great “boards” over there of amazing artists. Jennifer is a Swedish artist and, awesomely, her own website very clearly shows the evolution of her work […]
