At first glance, abstract artist Ann Langlois’s moody and textural paintings reminded me of Mark Rothko’s classically monumental and emotional works. But upon further inspection, I couldn’t help seeing a bit more of a Helen Frankenthaler vibe, with the pretty and feminine brushstrokes and overlapping colors. In any case, and whatever her influence, Ann’s paintings …
In April, Allie Lehman started the #The100DayProject about 15 weeks ago now, and I’ve been watching her paint and create these gorgeous works of art every day since. I follow her snaps and her instagram, and seeing the process of it all was beautiful to watch, not only for artistry, but for commitment to a …
From subtle washed out abstract works to high contrast black and white contemporary pieces to big, bright, bold drippy hearts, which happen to be my favorite of all, Kerri Rosenthal is an artist to watch. Her paintings have been featured in tons of magazines, so you may already know her name… her works are pretty, …
I first really noticed Emily Ratajkowski in the movie We Are Your Friends, and was instantly mesmerized by her. She’s not only beautiful, she oozes sexuality in a way you only can when you’re perfectly comfortable in your own skin… which somehow STILL makes certain women uncomfortable to the level of name calling, something which …
This should probably also be categorized under Best Instagram Accounts to Follow, but I found this ex-make-up artist and conceptual consultant’s Instagram via Another Magazine’s article Yvonne Gold: Queen of the Instagram Triptych and fell instantly for her eye for visuals. Below is an excerpt from the article at Another Mag… Gold made her name …
I was just scrolling through my Instagram feed on Sunday afternoon… which I find myself doing less and less since I happen to be on Snapchat much more often now, but anyway, I spotted this bold 3D black and white striped butterfly piece via Christine Dovey and was instantly intrigued. This is what I find …
Over the weekend I found Kat Dahlia and wondered why I hadn’t heard her music until now considering she’s got singles dating back to 2013 ~ WHAT!?! Whatever the case, I promptly downloaded her latest album My Garden and haven’t stopped listening to it since. I Youtubed the video so I could link to it …
Just loving the color combos here along with the mood they’re sort of creating. I pinned them all separately a few nights ago and loved how they looked sitting next to each other on my board… I love color association posts because they promote creativity and open spaces for new ideas to filter in. As …
I found artist Kate Worum via a Pin that led me to My Domain’s post on up and coming artists and fell instantly in love with her her work. This love affair led me directly to her website and then to her etsy store to drop a few prints into my cart and immediately check …
I found Nicolaus Ferry on Instagram, where I find so many wonderful artists these days, and was immediately struck by the beauty of his work. His butterfly sketches are my favorite, and the paintings a close second, though all of his works are incredible. His pencil work is so subtle and soft and so lifelike …
In the September issue of Harper’s BAZAAR, artist Marc Quinn photographed the eyes of fashion industry leaders: Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney and Sarah Burton… and I just thought the closeups were stunning. “The eyes are the only internal organ you can see from the outside,” says artist Marc Quinn. “The iris is our doorway to …
Jeff Koons Balloon Dog (Red), 1995 Jeff Koons is one of those artists the world has a love/hate relationship with. Some of his works are downright gross, yet many of his works are downright adorable. Either way, they get you thinking, and that’s what art is all about, right? When I worked at the …
This post is brought to you by E! Entertainment Television. All opinions are my own. Man I love celebrity family reality shows, they’re my favorite kind to watch… and growing up in LA, I adore the shows filmed in my home city because I recognize all the locations and it gives me a little dose …
So I thought since I’d be spending more time on Youtube starting now-ish, it would be smart to get my channel organized and up to date, and most importantly, PRETTY, of course. After I added a new header and updated my social media links, I realized I had a few old videos in my ’90s …
I randomly happened upon these stunning photographs of the human female form captured amidst light and dust via Flyerz Magazine on Facebook and was mesmerized. I can look at them for what seems like an eternity, they are just so beautiful… there’s not much else to say. UPDATE These photos are by artist Alexander Yakovlev …
