What is art?

Reel Around the Fountaine

I’m always delighted to see illustrators and their whimsical takes on reality. It never fails to cheer me up on a muggy overcast day, nor does it fail to inspire me forge ahead in my own labor of love. The beautiful work of Australian artist, Fontaine Anderson is no exception. Inspired by ancient Egypt, Aztecs, fashion and her own dreams, the illustrations are highly stylized with small marks like pieces of embroidery. Just lovely.
