I am completely smitten by these pieces of art by Joe Davidson.
They Love NYC
The converted candy factory in Brooklyn is home to artists from all over the world who, thanks to landlord Ann Ballentine. They have cultivated their own sense of community in New York for more than 40 years. Thank you InStyle Magazine for this beautiful feature. Read the full article.
(My office landlords Frank and Mario, owners of The Invisible Dog Artist Building, deserve the same kind of tribute!)
Summer 2020 by Tatsuya Tanaka
This sums up summer 2020. Thank you Tatsuya Tanaka.
Singing Stones
I am in love with Pinuccio Sciola‘s singing stones.
Snoring into the Icelanding Countryside
You might have heard of an app that lets you scream into the Icelanding wilderness. It reminded me of Swiss performance artist Roman Signer who amplified his snoring into the Icelandic countryside in 1996. I love everything about this.
Designer Cakes
These designer cakes by Tortik Annushka are breathtaking.
One of the co-founders is teaching cake making online classes. How fun!

I keep seeing images that perfectly represent what my current life feels like, trying to keep three businesses alive during a global pandemic. This one is by Kylli Spare.

Friends asking: How are you doing?
Me: Sending them one of these photos by Brooke DiDonato.

Loving and totally inspired by these collages by Frank Moth.
Nowhere and Everywhere at the Same Time, No. 2
This art installation looks delightful.
Brutalist Sandcastles
Calvin Seibert builds brutalist sandcastles. They make me want to drive to a beach and start building. Mad respect.

Artist Puzzle
I am feeling equally uncomfortable looking at this as I am intrigued by it. This is a limited edition 500 piece puzzle by Alma Haser. Alma photographed sets of identical twins and made them into identical jigsaw puzzles. She then swaps every other piece of their puzzles, completely mixing them half and half. Not always knowing where their eyes, mouths and lips would end up, the result is a pair of eerie, unrecognisable portraits. No longer seen as completely identical, they are unique.
Adventures in Solitude
I feel this photo by Cristina Carol.
Stephen Morrison
I feel this dogs by Stephen Morrison. He sells some of his “isolation buddies” over on his Instagram. Check them out.
“My Little Piece of Privacy”
This made me laugh: To stop passersby from peeping into his workshop, Niklas Roy strung up a small white, *motorized* lace curtain in his window. Outside movement triggers a motor to position the thin fabric in front of the person attempting to look inside. Funny.
A Box of Tissues
Made me smile: A box of tissues, by Jaejoon Jang.
