nava lubelski

big splashes of paint, bold use of thread. nava lubelski - what's not to like?

zao wou-ki

i thought zao wou-ki would be some young lad but that couldn't be further from the truth. ahead of his time and no mistake!

heather murray

yes, it's pictures on sticks. but i've really fallen for these by heather murray. there's something sad and whimsical...

nightmares on wax

jean noviel

 i can't find any details on jean noviel so i'm not sure if these are paintings or photographs that have been worked on. whichever, if there's a time when i'm stuck for some narrative it's here i'll be looking!

we will fail

iona fortune

nicola samori

nicola samori - neo baroque i think they describe her as. i don't much care for that term. what she does do is play with the classics in such a way as not to seem over artificial but engages the viewer both in her perspective but also the originals she works from

ela orleans

veronique vandevoorde

virtually no details online for veronique vandevoorde. an image search more than makes up for that!

c.o.w.

france jodoin

maybe just a bit too representative for me but you can't argue that france jodoin's works aren't just lovely

aerate sound

disco puppet

ruth rae

 i look at ruth rae's work and i fell, yes! more of of this sort of thing!

young fathers

sarrita king

more from south of the hemisphere, this time sarrita king. i'm really taken by this image, surprsingly maybe given how much she does in blue - absolutely be doing an image search!

paul klee

it's paul klee. i don't have to say more! weirdly, when i was young i wasn't much for klee. these days i could spend the whole day browsing his images

ouzo kim

these images by ouzo kim are described as a renaissance collages. but kim does loads more....

little simz

yugen blakrok

richard burlet

richard burlet's work is not what i'd maybe think that i'd be taken with, but the colours! the textures! i love these

mira schendel

i'm having a blue end of week, not least because of this by mira schendel. i'll be getting my paint out shortly and trying to achieve something like this! luminous!

leston japaljarri spencer

this is called warnu jukurrpa (snake dreaming). i have no idea what it symbolizes to leston japaljarri spencer but it's so similar, yet at the same time different, to some of my own drawings i couldn't look past it. if i had this on my wall i'd hypnotize myself!

tetsuo aoki

i like tetsuo aoki's figures but i particularly like this image because, for me at any rate, getting these circular things balanced and looking natural is always tricky
