ethan hayes-chute.

I love these stunning, tiny landscape sculptures by ethan hayes-chute.  They're so beautifully conceived and constructed, so modern but also very nostalgic to me. I think that's because my father used to have an enormous model railroad when I was a child, so I grew up with sticks becoming trees and matchboxes turned into train stations. Whatever the reason, my heart sings every time I look at this work. Love it so!

 

 

 

 

 

multi-colored, spring is finally here, extravaganza.

I love the look of these. They're somewhere between food and mineral. And you can draw with them. What more could you ask for?

And how about this rug from hay, wild, felt, perfection (thanks mocoloco)!

And stunning glass from elizabeth lyons via the lovely more ways to waste time. Delicious!

reuben margolin.

A lovely reader sent me this link to a make video about kinetic artist reuben margolin. What an absolute treat, both the amazing video and the kind "gift" from a reader. I so appreciate it when that happens! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Go here to see more of his beautiful work.

I received a kind recommendation of another artist from laura fayer today. So nice to think of me. I then visited her site to see her own work which is, as you can see, simply breathtaking. The calm, diffused lightness of these pieces, their amazing color palettes and lovely compositions. Ah, so much beauty in one place!
