Memorial Day Weekend

Just got back from a lovely weekend at my parent’s house. We did lots of: walking, hiking, gardening, laying in the hammock, eating dinner on the porch and spending quality time. I feel like this photo sums it up!

Lady Show: “inner tube friends”

Here’s another piece I did for the Lady Show coming up. If you are in the NYC area on June 13th we hope you can stop by!

For now, have a great weekend. I think you can tell by this piece that I’m looking forward to summer. Luckily the weather around here is lovely. Hope it’s nice where you are too. XO.

I had a lot of fun at the Stationery Show yesterday visiting my friend Anna of Sub-Studio. I’m a big Sub-Studio fan as you can see here and here, so it was great seeing all of their fabulous work in one booth. Of course the booth was designed impeccably and their work stood out amongst hundreds of others.

If you have not checked out Sub-Studio or Brevity already, visit their shop and blog.

*I have my eye on their travelogue set and nursery prints featured above.

Souther Salazar: Last Year’s Man solo show

Souther Salazar

My friend Lisa told me about her friend, this amazing artist Souther Salazar. His name sounds like a super hero alias. His work is amazing and blows me away. I can’t stop looking at his show at Jonathan Le Vine gallery. I am going to try to find the time to go over and check it out in person. I really must.

” Salazar’s dynamic compositions are colorful accumulations of simply drawn characters and their surrounding communities. A single canvas might contain hundreds of narratives and microcosmic worlds within worlds.”

“Salazar’s two-dimensional pieces incorporate mixed-media collage techniques often mirrored in his three-dimensional work, which transforms the surrounding environment, pulling viewers into the picture plane to further explore his representational world. Salazar’s highly imaginative installations are the physical embodiment of the subject matter found in his whimsical paintings. His carefully crafted sculptures feature tiny civilizations of baked-clay human and animal figures living within cities constructed using a variety of found objects.

Amazing.
