What’s not to love about microscopic, nature-inspired lasercut metal and wood veneer? That’s what I thought, nothing! I was so psyched to find the work of Kari Lindstrom – she’s a Brooklyn-based artist who makes incredible pieces showcases the crazy patterns that nature comes up with.

In Lori’s own words she says her interests are in, “Art that is the size and resonance of a haiku, quiet and solid as the ground beneath one’s feet.” Here here.

Sophie and Lili is a small company that makes adorable and fun fabric dolls for, I would argue, “girls of all ages.” I don’t know where I came upon their work but…it was probably Instagram…I’m hooked. I have a particular affinity for their non-doll offerings – super summery prints. As we start to pack and […]

After nearly a week of being under the weather, I’m feeling marginally alive again. I can almost breath through my nose! In the spirit of the laziest four days of my life being behind me I’m posting about a young woman who seems to be doing a LOT with her time, Bethany Mitchell. I’m pretty […]

Now that I’ve started down an Etsy path I’ve found another artist that I had to share, Virginia Kraljevic. She does both illustrations and pen and ink drawings and her line drawings are awesome from the repetitive, meditative perspective. Cream Puff – I really like her titles. It’s funny, since I saw Meander’s work I […]

Everyone knows I love a good sea urchin and today, my brother’s friend Neil (and my friend too) sent me the site of Jennifer Maestre whose sculptures are entirely inspired by “the form and function of the sea urchin.” These are 1 inch sections of pencils, cut, sharpened, drilled and then sewn together like in beading. […]

While I know I’m late to the party again, I recently discovered StumbleUpon and have lost countless hours to the Stumble button. It’s addictive. The other night, deep, deep in a hole of of the internet I came upon this post on a blog called BumBumBum and the work of Heike Weber, I was floored. This piece is […]

A few days ago I came upon the site Artsicle, a NYC-based startup designed to encourage art collecting. You can “rent” a piece of art (in NYC) for $50 and then, if it works in your home, buy it! It’s like Rent the Runway for artwork, which is a great idea! While I was trolling […]
