We are having an event at our gallery this evening so I’m stuck here until 8pm. I actually work for an art dealer but we have a rather large gallery space and on occasion, we lend it for events. It is not in any way art related but I’m sure the boss thinks he’ll get …

artist feature: Marcus James
I just stumbled upon the artist Marcus James and fell in love with his prints {I inquired about prices and am awaiting response}. At first glance you don’t see the naughty nature behind each but that {in my opinion} is what makes them much more appealing. They look so innocent at first glance, like a …

If anyone has any tips on other great Alice in Wonderland art, lemme know …
Polaroid Discontinued…
For the last couple of months {actually, much longer} I’ve been noticing a resurgence of Polaroid photos – artistic Polaroids. EVERYWHERE. And honestly, I like it. It ads a vintage feel to almost any subject matter and a depth that you don’t see as much in digital photography. But mostly {speaking from my past}, Polaroids …
