Summer's over...

Finally hopefully able to get back to a more regular posting schedge.
We shall see, tho as i am queen of the flakes.
In no particular order, things I'm currently digging...

from top: 

-pyramids, strings... from some random searching and link-clicking...

-the breathtakingly beautiful collage work of Seiko Kato. All of her stuff is amazing, btw. Cues taken from victorian collage, yet unmistakably modern and right-now. 

-the crazy harlequin-checker minx mani's at Alice and Olivia (R29 or Elle photo, I forget)...

-one of a kind, handmade arrows from Fredericks and Mae, read about them here..

If you are in NYC... Brooklyn especially, do check out SEENOEVILSEENOEVIL SEE EVIL...

It's up till 24th October... 

Currently on repeat: Twin Shadow... The guy is smooth...get into it.

Sticker Shock...

Was doing my daily blog crawl and stumbled on the work

of Payton Cosell Turner. Blew my little mind.

As somebody whose childhood treat for good behavior
was a pack of stickers*...This just hit me straight in the heart.
*(An obsession which continued through later life with a massive skate sticker collection,
then band stickers,and now, not ashamed to admit - f*cking Post-it's even!!!I need major help) 
From faraway her "wallpaper" looks like baroque or rococo florals..

(the artist on the right)

Then, zoom into that and see the real magic? Do you see do you see???

Also  - her illustrations and illustrated wallpaper are great too. 

Sort-of naive, and kinda reminiscent of the doodles in the covers of Wes Anderson DVD's.

If my walls weren't brick, or already covered with too much stuff (story of my life)... I'd commission her in a heartbeat.

Stumbled upon the work of Sebastiaan Bremer the other day...
Nothing short of amazing. I was at first pulled in by the ink-spotted
photos in bright colors, but further digging and i found
these super amazing white on photo works... (see below)...
*all pics from his site, amazing, except for the shiteous flash animations. Barf.
somehow this is a photo.. swirly whatevers...

then a closer look:

crazy pointillist madness... amazing.

tried to figure out where i'd seen similar?

M/M Paris art for Vespertine? Kiiiiiiinda.

And even more so - Aubrey Beardsley...

spooky and beautiful...

currently listening to: (cause it's sorta the same)

the constitution state...

Spent this past weekend in CT... which i know precious little about, even though it's so close to NYC... anyway Saturday found us at a gorgeous wedding for two lovely loves...

Sunday, rather than rush back to the bustle of Brooklyn, we decided instead to hit up several antique shops... attempted burgers at Louis Lunch (foiled - not open on Sundays!!! totally bummed)

My chances at being on Hoarders are increasing daily...

Not pictured - an amazing boy scout backpack dating at least to the 50's (maybe older) and some random chandelier crystals that i am pretending i'll make something of...

Anyway, below, pics of the spoils.

feeding my unhealthy costume jewelry obsession...

Words...

...happened upon the work of Nathan Coley just recently...
I have a serious Ed Ruscha fascination... to which nothing compares
however this is definitely a temporary fix.

Find myself gravitating to the lit up words most of all, but generally a solid portfolio.
