Her profile:  Old stuff becomes quirky, new neck and wall garnish. Alexa Lett    enjoys    the art of giving casual items renewed life and a fresh new purpose. Her inspiration for art comes from contradiction…rust and lace, pearls and wood, metal and fabric…books and paint…and a pure affection for anything considered vintage. Her ideas and art have been featured on various HGTV and Discovery Channel segments and shows. All of her creations are best described as old-new stuff… re-purpose…re-do…re-invent…re-use… thus, the art of being renewed.

Love it.

Thanks!

Rudy’s
I found Rudy Ruckers via Boingboing and I really like his work. He’s weird and cool! You can see more of his work at http://www.rudyrucker.com/paintings/. This is no highbrow artiste… he is down to earth, painting his dog and characters from Flatland amoung others. Enjoy!

Chicago Butterfly
Tony Fitzpatrick spins magical tales from his own history and that of his beloved city Chicago via drawing-collages, vivid combinations of drawing, text and applied elements like matchbooks, postcards, gambling slips and ballgame stubs. In this gorgeous book created with Alex Kotlowitz, Fitzpatrick introduces the first set of drawing-collages as chapters in an ongoing project that is both personal diary and chronicle of Chicago.

Alex Kotlowitz is author of There are no Children Here, The Other Side of the River, and Never a City so Real. He also writes for the New Yorker and the New York Times.

“Vivid in every detail, these works bring to mind all sorts of pieced-together mediums beyond collage… Compressing several forms of expression within their limited borders, they remind us that when the world created is complete enough, originality is beside the point.” -The New York Times

My favorite escape was climbing trees. I’d search for the tallest tree’ could find, pull myself up into its branches, and begin to climb. I pushed upward from limb to limb until the voices of children playing below faded into the rustling of leaves. I ventured higher and higher, testing my faith as the branches grew progressively thinner. Once near the top, I perched precariously on a limb, braced against the trunk as it swayed in the wind. This was my own world, and from here I could see forever.

Michaël Zancan’s paintings

Michaël Zancan has some very interesting and beautiful work. He was born in south west France in 1976. As far as he remembers, he has always been doodling on my schoolbooks margins or on the class tables, which cost him a fair number of punishments. Attracted to any form of creation, he mostly devoted his teenage years to computer creation and was passionate about programming. He had to wait until the age of eighteen before he got involved into painting, thanks to his exciting street art (not to say graffiti) period. In parallel he has tried a lot of painting techniques, such as airbrushing which sounded like the natural tool for switching from walls to paper.

When he was about 22 , he tired of the ephemeral nature of graffiti, and he really started to get involved into drawing. He practiced a lot thanks to various crafts for his engineering school’s gazette, party posters or t-shirts. Thanks to the final discovery of oil painting, he finally felt what painting meant.

The serious decision to become a painter came after his sterile, inartistic, one-year long experience of engineer’s work.
