Just came across these absolutely incredible drawings by the artist, Hollis Brown Thornton. Can't believe it took me so long to discover this work. Permanent marker on paper. Are you kidding? It just blows my mind.

HBT is currently in a group show called, "PHOTO-BASED" at Barbara Archer Gallery in Atlanta, GA through June 27, 2009. Other artists in the show include: Roberto Calbucci (Milan), April Gertler (Berlin), J Ivoevich (Brooklyn), Sindy Lutz (New Jersey), Melissa Stern (New York), Karen Tauches (Atlanta), and Dayna Thacker (Atlanta).

New work in progress

I'm very excited about a new little painting I've started based on a photo taken by Victoria from sfgirlbybay blog. A refreshing change to my usual palette.
