I opened up my inbox today to find attachments of the art of Zlatko Vasic (does anyone know a good online Swedish to English translator?), a Swedish artist.
There is an organic quality to his works that is anatomical, yet strangely surreal. Movement is present, but exists within a grotesque arena where flesh is peeled […]

I’ve looked forward to doing this show for awhile now. I think I emailed Josh Simpson’s studio back in October right after I had started Artist
Hideout. It’s been a little while getting things in place to do interviews like this, and I am thrilled to be able to talk with Josh Simpson today.
Below is a […]

Justin’s wife emailed me this morning with this.
My husband, Justin Clayton, is an oil painter. A few of years ago he started painting on a daily basis just to get some practice in. They were small studies and usually unfinished. But, for the past year he has been painting almost daily and finishes each painting. […]

Okay, I felt a little bad for Cyndi this last showcase. Her link got misplaced somewhere along the way. So I thought I’d highlight her blog, Layers Upon Layers and one of her showcase entry here too.
She completed the mixed media painting in December and makes great use of found elements in her […]

Linda Blondheim recently sent me a painting that she did entitled “Town and Country Farm” (14×18 inches, oil on canvas)
My first look at it reminded me of impressionist artists. I half expected to see some ladies in the background with umbrellas…lol. My next thought was that it was a retouched photograph with a […]

I recently received an email from a Mr. Dark who likes to draw bones and skulls. Besides my initial reaction of “hey, this is really good!” was the morbid factor which encompassed with the anatomical renderings of a Mr. Dark led me to the final conclusion of “hey, this is really good!”
Rendering the dead […]

Hsien over at Play Library posed a question today on “what is your favorite craft tool?” I would probably say that mine is my camera. Looking through old images often inspires me to create.
Hit up Hsien and let her know what you guys think too.

Ashley Cecil submitted this piece to me this last week. I’ve been spending some time looking at Ashley’s work on her site and have been quite surprised at the variety of work that she has done.
While much of Ashley’s work is journalistic in style, there is a definitive look to her painting which has the […]
