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.

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 …
