As many of you know, I’ve been writing and sharing pretty consistently at Substack since February 1st of this year… After about a year and a half of wondering what was next, waiting for my next BIG IDEA and coming up short, I set a goal for myself to write every day at Substack, which …
Lovecats! I finished my painting and I LOVE IT! I had SO MUCH FUN painting this that I miss it now! It took me about two weeks to finish and was the thing I looked forward to the MOST every day. It’s one of those things you just can’t wait to finish but it’s bittersweet …
I LOVE THIS WOMAN. I found Ashley Longshore on Instagram a few months ago and I’ve been obsessed ever since. She’s bold and she’s beautiful and she’s fun af and her paintings encompass all those things and she has the kind of energy that’s contagious. Her colorful art studio is what drew me to her …
Last year Allie created a painting every day for 100 days and sold nearly every one of them. From soft abstract landscapes and still lifes in bright neons, in large and small formatted canvases, Allie’s paintings had a dreamlike quality that were soothing to look at. This year, however, she’s doing something very different and …
Working under the moniker of Unskilled Worker, the London-based, self-taught artist rose to prominence via her hugely successful Instagram account, her striking portrayals of faces and fashion drawing a large following. Discovered by the celebrated photographer Nick Knight in 2014, the artist was invited by SHOWstudio to work on a collection of specially commissioned portraits …
At first glance, abstract artist Ann Langlois’s moody and textural paintings reminded me of Mark Rothko’s classically monumental and emotional works.

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, …
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 …
above art:Mark Ryden “Cecella” My husband and I got married (well, eloped) September 4, 2006. He proposed at my 30th 80’s Roller Skate birthday party at the end of the Hokey Pokey – and it was awesomely radical! I thought soon after we’d buy a house and start makin’ babies. Real estate in LA slowly …
