adolfo arenas alonso

of all the images i've seen in the last month these by adolfo arenas alonso are the ones i'm taken with the most. i adore their quirkiness but also, as he's from andalucia where i have close friends from, there's a certain something that speaks to where they're from 

miho harano

i wouldn't normally go for images like those of miho hirano but i really like the way she uses blue and the dream like quality of her pictures. beyond that she has nor internet presence so nothing else to tell!

fatoumata diawara

lido pimienta

the babe rainbow

big wild

megan mcglynn

try as i might i've never been at home with this geometric style. clearly then i'm loving this from megan mcglynn

sophie rocco

sophie rocco's just about where i'd like to be in terms of representation. and i love her textures

blessus

ttrruuces

george underwood

i did not know george underwood was a collaborator with david bowie. i just know him from his paintings of women in hats. which are just sublime.

bisa butler

when you read about bisa butler you read about african/brightly coloured fabric. which, to me, just feels a bit racist, a bit misogynistic. what she is, is a textile artist, who describes herself as a storyteller, who breathes life and colour into pictures of long forgotten african americans and in doing so makes her art both contemporary and political, as well as being really accomplished in her craft. that's art for me.

buika

corazon de goma

la bien querida

malena zavala

geraldine javier

these are just really interesting images from geraldine javier

ang kiukok

ang kiukok wears his influences on his sleeve but he can really paint a jesus picture. i would love to see these in real life

chip taylor & the new ukrainians

miss li

anita magsaysay-ho

again, i really like the use of colour in anita magsaysay-ho's work. it'd be easy to say she's derivative but i think that's to miss that she's of her time and, in her portrayals of working women, really stands out for me.

florencia fernandez alonso

there's maybe a little too much structure for me in some of florencia fernandez alonso's images but i do like her use of colours

garmarna

dj shub

kent

shireen

james c christensen

missed out this gem from james c christensen in my fish whimsy week so here it is now

fernando zobel

loving these abstracts from fernando zobel

viktoria tolstoy

ben webster

wu gaozhong

there's a dearth of english language info about wu gaozhong. no matter, browse his images and amke something up!

albin brunovsky

albin brunovsky - because that's where my head's at of a monday!

feist

simone dinnerstein

the national

mina tindle

piotr jablonski

it's true that maybe some of piotr jablonski's concept work can be a bit mainstream but there's no denying his craft. this image really captured the mood of a difficult week for me.

pablo auladell

that thursday morning feeling - pablo auladell nails it with this

marcus king and dan auerbach

the teskey brothers

santiago caruso

the heads are just so for me but in this santiago caruso image i can't look away from that bold swatch of fabric

wolfgang tillmans

Some colour from wolfgang tillmans to start the week
