Dock 6 Collective:
MSGM me, ASAP
"As a skilled DJ Massimo Giorgetti is able to mix and match his passion and the artistic and aesthetic expressions of artists connected to web world. The outcome: a Kaleidoscope world made of colours, shapes and lines capable of inexorably catching the public interest and attention and acknowledging MSGM as one the most intriguing brand of the moment."

Serena Olivieri:
Through, non other than Pinterest, I was directed to Serena Olivieri's Tumblr. This Italian gal is one to watch! I especially love her color studies. Here, her animated pattern makes me think: Spring
On a personal note:
Finals end this week & I'll be taking a semester off. I'm just so darn excited to have some breathing time. My apartment is a wreck and I'm having a hard time controlling my urges for "treats"; it's amazing how easy it is to find excuses to give yourself these "treats" (food, shopping, etc) under the pressures of finals. Four hours of work does not equal new shoes. Alas, I stayed strong.

| I fancied up some craft paper for a friend's gift. Yes, her name starts with an E. |

| Using pastels: Starting to become something... |
 |
| Finished and I'll be taking another whack at this, sans adhesive spray. |

| After my last post, I said, "What the hell, I'm gonna do it!" I present to you: Tape Mountain: It's electric. (ps: excuse the mess) |
This is what inspires me to post!
I have found the mecca of all work spaces. This is the kind of thing I see among the vast pit, Internet, and immediately feel a connection. Yes, a connection to a work space. It happens because...it HAPPENED.

| imagine BURSTING into THAT door every morning! i know i'd BURST |
 |
| the aforementioned super duper cool |
 |
| the flooring jackpot! |
 |
| headed down the stairs: i'd 1st start a song & then gaze at my bitchin' map mural. PINK. |
 |
| great view of the space. LIGHTING. it's top notch. |
 |
| holy moly super rad tape mural. it literally gives me energy, IT'S SO AMAZING! |
 |
| i want to touch it. |
 |
| emma richardson's desk. um hello. i'm totally wrapping stick in neon thread. the heck with cowbell...i must have more NEON. |
I would never leave work if this was my space. I mean that tape mural on the wall?!? That is the kind of thing I see & want to immediately go out & buy even more fabulously bright tape & recreate my own version. Ten million A+'s to Bramble Workshop, for her genius. Ten millions F-'s to me for being such a loser and not dedicating more time to explore my abilities.
Finished!
A couple weeks ago, I finished a study in line & dots. Hard to really see the detail in these photos, but my plan now is to increase the scale. I love taking time to practice little drawings like this at home. With mountains a forever source of inspiration for me, I tried to create a piece that reflected the ups & downs of life with a backdrop of mountains. The solids black lines represent the ebb & flow of life among those "mountains." The top photo is its current state, since the bottom has been put through Instagram and I decided the pink tape around the entire piece was too much.
Overall, it just makes me happy and I can't wait to recreate this on a larger scale & then begin to make different versions. I'm starting to get a nice little collection of self-made art in my home and that brings me a sense of fulfillment.
Etsy Find: Art for the Kitchen
I stumbled upon the Etsy shop anek several months ago & still have items saved in my cart for "a someday purchase". Do you ever do that? You should check anek out if you are looking for some stylish prints for your kitchen; they offer 71 items!
