Art Journals, New Image Sources and Some REALLY Fascinating Artists

Art Journals




Article on Janice Lowery in the Smithsonian magazine. Her blog can be found: here. I've been following her art for quite some time and sadly- she died this year. But, that her work was chosen by the Smithsonian speaks volumes (ha-pun intended) of the incredible amount she produced over the years.





Movie Alert: 1000 Journals. I have this movie in my Netflix queue and will review on it as soon as I see it. The official 1000 Journal website is here.

I understand there is a book to be released as well.





New Blogs to Research and Artists to Admire!

A real treasure of a blog is: Meggie Cat is a delightful new addition with tons of intriguing art links, especially interesting and unusual imagery that is used in her artwork.

One really cool link from her took me to here for whole entire books that have been scanned!! Cool. This is: School Arts, volume 21, circa 1923.

Which lead me to a link from her blog to Agence Eureka. This link translates it into English. Man!! Is she a treasure trove of vintage imagery. Now, I've not delved far enough into her blog to determine whether or not she creates anything with these images (though I would image she does) or just collects and scans it. Regardless- I'm delighted to find it.
