Jason deCaires Taylor

Some amazing underwater sculptures from Jason deCaires Taylor.  They become even more amazing the longer they are underwater and the more they become inhabited by sea life.

Yarn

So, I have a big ole blank space on my living room wall.  I've been cruising eBay looking for some sort of awesome fabric art to fill it.  No luck.  I have decided to create my own inspired by these.  I'll keep you updated.  It WILL be awesome!

Lead Foot

Dalton Ghetti, a carpenter from Connecticut, has the most incredible and amazing way to relax.  He carves pencil leads.  He does it all without the aid of a magnifying glass.  Since pencil carving is still a hobby, some of the pieces take years to create (the alphabet took 2 1/2 years). He even has a box of pieces that have broken while he was sculpting them.  He calls it his "cemetery collection".  Currently he is working on a piece inspired by the World Trade Center bombing.  Since 2002, every day, he carves one of the victims out of lead, over 3000.  Upon completion they, together, will form a large tear.  It will take about 10 years. For Ghetti, it is worth it.

Erin Trefry

Amazing artwork by my friend, Erin Trefry.  Done with sewing thread and photographic images, the scale is small and intimate but the impression is intense.  So beautiful.  I want one....or three :-).
