Thought for the day

This quote always makes me laugh, enjoy!

"God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant and the cat. He has no real style. He just goes on trying other things."

-Pablo Picasso

Anna Joelsdottir

So I found this really great artist, Anna Joelsdottir.   I showed her work to one of my students the other day and she really responded to it.  What I find really successful is how the drawing seems to be bursting from it's structure.  It's beautiful, yet kind of destructive.  She is also represented by Zg Gallery, a fantastic gallery in Chicago.

Weekend Quote

So this quote was kind of a mantra for the painters in undergrad, but I'm pretty sure it still applies, now so more than ever, so here goes.... "It's not that you don't have a life, it's that art is your life."

Happy Sunday!
