Kindra Murphy

Kindra Murphy, an assistant professor over at MCAD, recently shared some of her work from their faculty show last year and I thought it was so beautiful I had to pass it on. 

She created a paper quilt using the insides of envelopes, how beautiful are these colors? I love the pop of lime green, and the tension with the red.

Fruits and vegetable paper collages, the peas (or beans) in the top right are my favorite.

Some more really interesting work using cut paper. Gorgeous negative space... something I really need to employ more of!

Check out Kindra's blog, Kindra is Here for more of her work and inspiration.

Lauren Doughty

I was over at Daydream Lily the other day, and Liss was featuring the artwork of 17 year old Lauren Doughty. The images intrigued me, I visited her blog, I was overwhelmed. This girl is seriously talented and extremely dedicated to her craft. Lauren combines illustration, collage and sewing to created wonderfully textural pieces. At school in the UK, she is currently documenting her preparations for a trip to Amsterdam. Check out these amazing pages from her sketchbook:

I can't wait to see what she does on her trip! I have the feeling we are going to see some amazing things upon her return.

Sarah London

Peaking around over at Share Some Candy, I found this image of Sarah London's beautiful crochet work:

Sarah is from Australia, and clearly loves color! I have no idea how to crochet, so this is particularly fascinating to me, the way the flowers interlock and the different textures they create. I love it! Check out these other amazing photos from her bog:

This is seriously making me wish I cashed in on my grandmother's offer to teach me to crochet. Sarah also has an Etsy shop where she sells beautifully colored wool and even gives advice on color palettes!
