There are a million reasons to love artist Alexander Kori Girard. One being his radiant combinations of color mingling together to create irregular symmetrical patterns. I may find inspiration in his work for a future book cover or two!

I am in love with Mark Warren Jacques. If I could, I would have included all his work on my blog, so you have to promise to check out his tumblr. As a visual exploration of life’s little oddities Mark paints good vibes with bursts of colorful sun rays, vein-like trees against black spaces and endless oceans of mesmerizing waves.

I really enjoy these paintings from Ryan Stewart Nault. Perhaps it’s the unusual and quirky still life or the palette of natural tones with bursts of corals that I love.

Artist: Hollis Brown Thornton

Hollis Brown Thornton plays with memory and time by fragmenting nostalgic imagery. Hollis uses acrylic paints, markers and photo transfer to control the amount of visibility and degradation within each image, playing with how pop culture, world events and outdated technologies languish as time moves forward and memory fades.

During an artist’s residency on board a sailboat near the Arctic Circle, Canadian artist Sarah Anne Johnson captures these alluring images of the surrounding landscape. In the series Arctic Wonderland, the landscapes are transformed further into surrealism through the subtle application of pigment by using techniques ranging from painting with acrylics and india ink to photoshop and screen-printing.

Mimi Jung is the creative force behind Brook&Lyn, a talented jeweler incorporating natural elements into her contemporary pieces. In addition to her jewelry, Mimi offers these gorgeous hand woven wall hangings. She beautifully contrasts a thin warp with a bulbous weft; exposing the warp in some areas in addition to dimensional elements of fringe, tassels and strips of tree bark.

Artist: Murad Khan Mumtaz
January 3, 2013 by Erin Fletcher
Pakistani artist Murad Khan Mumtaz uses his training in the art of Indian miniature painting to create these beautiful scenes depicting bits of traditional culture as they fade away in our contemporary materialistic landscape. Keeping with traditional practices, Murad paints on a canvas of wasli paper, which is prepared by glueing sheets together with flour paste and then burnished with either a smooth glass ball or sea shell. Burnishing crushes any grain leaving a shiny, smooth finish.
