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.

Analyze This

Thanks to Avril Loreti for suggesting I try Google Analytics on my etsy shop. I'm a sucker for these interactive maps and wish I had started sooner. That said, I think if they give any more detailed information about who is looking at what, it could get pretty creepy. For now though, I'm officially obsessed.

Intersections

I am loving these intersection landscape paintings I came across this morning by artist, Grant Haffner.

Stacks of Seconds on Sale

SPRING CLEANING SALE: Here's a great deal for those on a tight budget right now. I have a stack of prints that I consider 2nds because of minor flaws on the white borders. The images themselves are perfect and will look just lovely once matted - especially appealing because I am offering them at 1/2 to 2/3 OFF my regular prices (depending on how many you get). They are going fast, but there are still a whole bunch of beauties left. Send me a convo through my etsy shop with the ones you're interested in and I'll let you know if I have them as seconds. If I do, I will describe the flaws and post a special listing for you if you want them.
