Stay Creative in 2012

Whoosh! Hear that? It's the time that's flown by since I last posted on this blog. I'm back in school for Winter term 2012. Blowing off the dust from this space, updating info and considering a new look and name soon. For today I'll just say, "hello, again!", and share with you a neat poster I discovered over here and the original is here. Since we bought our first house and my vintage business has been growing, I don't get much creative time in until I am working on assignments for school. That is unless I count photography, which I believe I will since I capture images that inspire me almost every week thanks to my iPhone and some super camera apps. All this is to say, I'm back for a bit, and I hope you're having a happy new year.

Hope you'll stop in and see what I'm up to in 2012!

Street Art: Miniature Architecture

EVOL is a Berlin based street artist that transforms banal urban surfaces, into miniature architectural surfaces through pasting. Using pasted paper, EVOL transforms electric boxes, small planters and other geometric city forms, into miniature apartment buildings and other structures.

Each piece of paper is printed with a repetitive pattern of flat gray walls dotted with plain window frames. once applied to a surface, the paper transforms the form into small building that EVOL often adorns with small characters.

EVOL performs this process within different cities and has even been commissioned to do installations in galleries, where he was created entire blocks of miniature buildings.

Street Art: Miniature Architecture

new leaf for a new year

As of today, this blog will no longer be written as a requirement for my art class--hooray!

This being my third blog, it might not be updated as often as the others but my vision for it has always been as a place to simply post when I feel inspired. I'll share my studio art projects and photography. I'll share work from other artists. I may even write a bit now and then. I'd love to build a great blog list to follow so if you know of any really quality art {any medium}, design {ie: of the art sort not the interior or exterior type--visit my other blog for that kind of goodness} or photography blogs do leave me your suggestions!

Let's journey this road together, shall we?
