Some might argue that our home is done and decorated but others would say that will never be true! A home evolves over time as you collect great things and receive wonder gifts (our anniversary was a case in point, I now own this). DwellStudio just started offering home accessory items according to some Twitter […]

I’m into a pen and ink mental place…or felt tip pen and paper I should say today. I came across Nadia Khawaja’s work and love it for the same reasons I loved Virginia’s yesterday. As the Time Out Dubai story says, “The repetition in each gestured stroke of her pen mimics a dancing rhythm.” To me […]

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 […]

I’ve been so deep into StumbleUpon and Pinterest lately I’ve not been spending too much time on Etsy – but today on a pinboard I saw the stamps of Mollie Flatley and went straight to my favorite source for more info. Mollie’s stamps are adorable and in my love for all things repetitive and mind-clearing, […]

If the name Pokorny wasn’t a dead giveaway, I’m part Czech. When I came across Petra Voglova’s lamps I was pleasantly surprised to find that she was too! Born in 1980 in Krnov to be exact. Her works are made from one of my favorite materials, porcelain. They are also carved works, not simply hand […]

[…]

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 […]

My brother forwards me 5-10 items from his Google Reader a day. Some of those are really just time-sucks like a chicken coin purse, puppy pictures, etc. others of them are awesome like a recent one from Colossal about Shayna Leib. Shayna won immediate favor with me because of her really informative website with great […]

Another artist I learned of via the Compulsive, Obsessive, Repetitive show was Jill Townsley. At first on her site I was thinking, where is her work that puts her into this category but then I decided to get in the “way back” machine and see what she was up to in 1992. The above piece […]

Normally I hope to find artists under little hidden rocks or from link digging so deep I don’t know how I got there but today I came upon Allison Patrick in one of my usual and very public haunts, Etsy! I love looking at things for our apartment on Etsy and a lot of our […]
