Ein Blog, der all den kleinen inspirierenden Dingen des Lebens gewidmet ist.
Oh, how I love inspiring collages… The ones by spielkkind -aka Kerstin Hiestermann- are especially imaginative. With very basic elements like leaves or cookies or shuttlecocks (!) she creates tiny worlds of their own. Cute worlds, minimalistic worlds. I love her very simple sketched figures: One circle for the body, two lines for the legs […]

Wow… this was the first thought I had when I saw the flower paintings by artist Thomas Darnell. I can’t exactly say what makes these pictures so special for me. One point certainly is the huge dimension of the paintings … some of them are more than 2 m wide! Maybe it is the flower

We started into this week with the perfect place of artist Claire Baisler’s studio, so it seems only logical to end it with her fantastic flower/nature art! Her organic paintings are a wonderful distraction in an art world that seems to be ever innovative and on the hunt for the best new idea. Sometimes the simplest

I just lost myself in the work of illustrator Nan Lawson (see more drawings on her Flickr stream!). Those people have such real-world attitudes. They could be very likely my own friends or even myself. That’s all for today because I have to fulfill my duties as maid of honour NOW. I wish you a
I told you already that I am a big fan of David Hockney’s Swimming Pool pics. Then have a look at the paintings below and maybe you can imagine my reaction when I first saw the creations by artist Samantha French who paints swimmers underwater and above. I was catched immediately by the blue colour,

On this blog, I made it never a secret that I’m a big fan of the funny and often hilarious illustrations of cartoonist Gemma Correll. It happened not seldom that I was in a (slightly) bad mood and then I saw one of her pics and had to laugh out loud! Gemma is a real

It’s Friday! And I am incredible tired from getting up again at 5am three times this week. And don’t let me start with my train rides (obviously temperatures below 0°C are STILL surprising for trains…). Luckily I found these wonderful illustrations by artist Riikka Sormunen. Each of them seems to tell its very own little
I’m in love with a photo. A photo made by Elger Esser – Juliane (2000). Unfortunately, I’m not able to show it you here. …Let me try to describe it: It’s depicting a young women standing in front of a window. She’s wearing something timeless – maybe a nightgown? The light coming in from the

Can you believe that these are PAINTINGS?! I couldn’t until I saw the video further down, which shows Japanese Artist Riusuke Fukahori creating his 3-dimensional goldfish pictures by using a complex process of poured resin and painting layer by layer of each fish, resulting in the perfect illusion. Too bad that his debut exhibition „Goldfish
