Melissa Maya Pottery

Melissa Maya Pottery is all handmade in Denver, in the artist’s garage in fact! I love it when creators are completely transparent about their processes, don’t you? Maya’s work is perfect parts minimalist and modern, and I’m anxious to get my hands on a piece or two of my own.

Miaz Brothers

I’m completely and utterly fascinated by these dreamy, blurry portraits by Miaz Brothers. Every painting looks nearly airbrushed perfect with the exception of a paint drip or two.

Victoria Will

While I was in Salt Lake City last week for Alt Summit, Sundance Film Festival was going on a short car ride away in Park City. And while it was going on photographer Victoria Will was shooting old-fashioned tintypes of some of Hollywood’s brightest stars. The end result is nothing short of beautiful.

31 Winter Walks

I love the idea of a group of objects representing a singular event or moment in time. Matt Jensen’s 31 Winter Walks is a collection of photographs, each one showing the physical result of the experience through groupings of sticks and ephemera found along the way of each excursion.

Zachary Royer Scholz

I used to save the security envelopes that showed up inside of credit card offers, but somewhere along the line I gave up on thinking I would ever be able to make anything from them. So they were tossed out – talk about regret. I’d like to think I would have eventually come up with something half as cool as these pieces by Zachary Royer Scholz.
