Revisiting the work of Mary Laube. These pieces are part of Practical Joy which I believe is the Korean-born artist’s MFA thesis.

Jessica Bell on Buy Some Damn Art
Tuesday, January 24, 2012
How stunning are these textile works by Jessica Bell? They are all for sale on my other site, Buy Some Damn Art. I envy whoever ends up with these lovely pieces!
The artist on her process:
“I start with a piece of fabric that is very small and I build out. I put pieces together and then I take them apart in a different way. I cut the pieces up and reassemble them relentlessly… I actually think these pieces are made in much same way as the paintings and collages I have made in the past, this compulsive taking apart and putting together, adding and subtracting.”

There’s also a great interview.

Sofia Arnold is an artist I’d love to see more of. While I am a big fan of her paintings, I’m just loving these new pieces in colored pencil & nail polish (!). Sofia’s imperfect, gestural drawings are lighthearted and lovely.
Sofia’s work from 2011 as it appears on her website.

Ryan Sarah Murphy’s cardboard collage work via Pinterest. Pretty stunning, huh?
I make abstract, sculptural collages using found and collected cardboard and book covers. I am interested in how these materials, in their simplicity, variety and wide abundance, can be cut and formed into quiet surfaces teeming with both geographical and emotional underpinnings. (The collages) reference architecture, landscape and the topographical intersection of urban & natural environments…
