Paintings that please me

Oh - real paintings is not really my thing. I mostly prefer installation art or sculpture. But when it comes to the paintings by American painter Michael Carson I'm all of a sudden very much into paintings again. As a former graphic designer he loves to incorporate his love of design, fashion and architecture into his work. His volition is to emphasize relationships of color and light and allow the texture of his brush stroke to move the viewer’s eye through the art, and I like what my eye see! Via The Jealous Curator.

Cleaning Just Became Fun

Before artist Katherine Rohrbacher became a painter she was a Rubber Dish Glove Designer! And I must say that cleaning and dish-washing just has become much more appealing and fun – or at least the thought of it!! Don't forget to check out the garden gloves and oven mitts recently added to the line! Via Lustik.

Hand-voven Walls

WOW - I'm blown away by these amazing hand-woven walls by Dutch textile designer Wies Preijde. A combination of lines, colors, views and passageways gives the observer the idea of walking through a transparent home. Different color combinations exist in the abstracted, patterned spaces, resulting in a flat image which gives the holographic impression of a three dimensional expansion. The varied vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines coalesce into rooms, windows, and other imaginary environments and passages.Via I'm Revolting.
