Sometimes I get clicking and I go from Twitter to Etsy to Facebook to LinkedIn and even my browser history can’t remind me how I got to where I ended up — but today I ended up at the awesome site of Brooke, Newov. This is a testament to the power of a good photograph […]

A while back I included Reyart’s felted acorns in a post as they were so lively and playful. In further exploring her Etsy store though I wanted to share other of her works as they’ve inspired a slew of ideas in me. Reyart is Reya Veltman who, not surprisingly, is currently based in the Netherlands. […]

I got so excited about the artists I met at Renegade I forgot to keep introducing artists what I’ve known for years, people from college, and before. When I was in high school my parents sent me to art camp for years where I learned things you typically can’t learn in school, namely metalsmithing and […]

As someone who spent a lot of time in college making things for friends and family I often wish Etsy had been around when I had more free time as I did in school. Julie Peach is a full-time student who makes really great printed works like notepads, napkins, placemats, etc. Her style has a […]

I’m rapidly realizing that I’m into papercutting. It takes the ability to visualize parts becoming a whole and I’m really into that kind of foresight and the people that have that ability — it’s one I lack.

Today I discovered a new blog to love, Scoutie Girl, and I’m almost scared to keep reading it as I love everything they write about. However, when I read their post on Yoola, I had to post too — Yael Falk, like me, crochets weird and wondrous things out of wire as I’ve been doing […]

Recently in New York at The Park Avenue Armory there was an installation show by Ernesto Neto. He takes biological artworks to another level in my opinion. Where as some smaller textile works can represent items on a petri dish he represents entire oversized internal structures — so much so that you can feel like […]

While at Renegade I remember walking by a booth and seeing some marvelous prints of submarines but I didn’t want to buy prints and have to keep them safe and flat for the week on my trip. I swore to myself I’d go through all the artists on the site though to find the ones […]

Last week, after my day in San Francisco, I went up to Sonoma for a few days as I’ve never been up there before and Steph was running her half marathon on that Sunday. While there we went to many vineyards including one called the Hess Collection, which was recommended by my aunt as it […]
