There is fabulous interview with Australian artist Nicholas Jones over at Design Files, along with numerous photos of his work. Jones makes intricate sculptures out of old books, an elaborate series of cuts and folds.
Dan Tague’s prints of folded cash first look like crumpled up money, but when the viewer takes a moment to read the message created by carefully folding the bill just so, all is revealed. Via Notcot.
The response we got after posting the inflatable bear photos last week was amazing. We couldn’t be happier to follow it up with these two wonderful videos, shot and sent to us by the artist, Joshua Allen Harris.
After watching the videos, we love the project even more…

This master painter, sculptor and illustrator from Strasbourg, France has the stylistic graphics that range from fashion, history, and advertising. Each illustrated compartment are very different. His portfolio is outstanding and pushes the envelope for the ability of illustrators to turn out more than just line and marker drawings.
Antoine Helbert’s portraits unleash a dark stare into the surreal surroundings of his models. He paints an ambiance so startling, you can’t help but stare. It should be no surprise that I relay he is also the scenic painter for Strasbourg’s Opera. His technique is oil on canvas for rich colors with eye-popping light sources.
His website contains a gorgeous collection of all his mediums and work. Antoine has created many posters for exhibitions, music festivals, and cultural events. He is a rising French star aiming high on his illustrative canvas of possibilities.

Vintage Portraits from the 1980s by Jeannette Montgomery Barron are the topic of an exhibition that opens today at ClampArt in New York. Barron captures some of the most significant artists of the time in moments of great calm that exude an intimacy, made even softer by the use of natural light. These are black and white photographs that the viewer wants to step into, into a place where there may be a chance to see the artist a little less cloaked.

Toronto-based painter Margaux Williamson is currently showing at the Marvelli Gallery in New York. The show is called The Girls show Dostoyevsky the new darkness, and Williamson’s viewers are led into a narrative that is soft and dark, with the interpretation of each adjective left open. The darkness is certainly present in the above painting, Girl, but for a painting so black, is it really dark? And the chains that hold the sledding girls in the painting that bears the name of the exhibition – are they hindering or helping, in the marshmallow snow? And OK or Self-portrait as Future Buddha, how can these paintings not endear themselves to us?

Lee Ann just sent over a couple new pieces….I really love her work. The first one is called Eternal Embrace and it instantly moved me.
Isn’t that what most of us are looking for anyways? Someone to lay with forever?

Kelly Tunstall’s paintings and illustrations of tall thin young women are almost like fashion design sketches. Tunstall’s heroines (based on friends, family, stylish women she sees walking down the street) are all beautiful, sexy and ladylike, to better show off their glamour dresses, ballet wear or lingerie. Yet some do sport quirks as well, maybe two heads here or a pair of antlers or bunny ears there, just to keep things interesting.
