inspiration:: right now

arthouse + the sketchbook project finished digitizing my sketchbook project submission... click here to see it in full! i forgot what some of it looked like, which made it embarrassing and also pretty inspiring for me to re-see.

my own personal sketchbooks are currently sitting next to me, awaiting a re-look as well. it's rewarding to steal ideas from yourself.

or  to subconsciously grab inspiration from others. your environment. anywhere you are.

snippets of my inspiration board, below.

the piece you see (a section of) here in this first image, is this collage work by mark bradford. if you like that ... then you must check him out here!

some new mini paintings. a little different, from the front lawn.

 i've been seeing a lot of my family lately. highly enjoy ...

... and looking forward to my mom's upcoming show, which has the best title, ever.

i've made a bunch of these. that's what i was doing in last week's post, too. and it was really messy, just because it's me and i make a total mess when i do anything. i'm sure you can make it be a neater process. now i have a bunch of paint-dipped everythings to pick from. vases for our new table mainly, but also leftover salt jars and photo stands from our wedding. you know, for all the times you need paint-dipped "things".

what are you inspired by right now?
