HOLLIS BROWN THORTON

ERIC JOYNER: ROBOTS AND DONUTS

I can't believe I'm just finding out about Eric Joyner! He paints robots and donuts...what could be more exciting than that? It feels nostalgic in a way.




TODD MCLELLAN

Stumbled upon this guy via the SwissMiss blog. Mr. Mclellan disassembles old (at least I assume they're old) electronics and machinery down to the tiniest screw. Quite amazing when you think about how much goes into our every day objects!
i like the Pentax camera one, mainly because i have the camera :)

How adorable is this bag? By Mina Perhonen

I FEEL LIKE I NEED A GETAWAY

With work being crazy and constantly changing, it's nice to get a couple breaks in the routine. Luckily the beautiful Sara Sanders is arriving in Los Angeles (not Ohio) tonight and it will be oh so wonderful to see her face! I'm also heading to New Orleans with the family to visit brother and sis-in-law first week in May! I guess I am getting my "getaway." But next up will have to be Europe :)

PARADISE

I've been looking through more of Matthias' stuff, and I had to post this one out of pure love and enjoyment. So Mr. Heiderich, you get two posts' of noteworthy praise.

BERLIN WALLS

Photographer Matthias Heiderich captures Berlin's simple and bold scenery. Love these colors.




COLORED PENCILS

Look at this! Huge colored pencils sprawled out in an open field. This would be a signature display in my dream design playground. Apparently Finland is booming with these site-specific art pieces, which i am completely behind. This installation created by Jonna Pohjalainen.

LORELAY BOVE

If you couldn't tell, I'm currently obsessed with this graphic/playful style of artwork. So following my Mary Blair post comes Lorelay Bove! Love the fantastical, whimsy charm in her paintings.
She currently works at Disney Animation Studios.

MARY BLAIR

Some of you may know the name Mary Blair and some of you may not. But if you've ever been to "Tomorrowland" or inside the tunnel of "It's a Small World", you have definitely stumbled upon the work of this wonderful artist and illustrator. Blair created some of the earliest concept art for the Walt Disney Company including Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, and Peter Pan. Here are some of her fantastically playful illustrations that could make anyone feel like a kid again!
