Mark Taylor

I am still kicking myself for not buying the above drawing last February when I saw it at Hatch Gallery in Oakland. I've continued to follow Mark Taylor's work through his blog (though I was sad to miss his last show in July) and am consistently impressed. His drawings and paintings have so much character and charm, and sometimes even make me giggle. Here are some favorites. You can see more on his new website here.

Happy Chanuka!

Vintage Fair

Last weekend was the biannual Deco-Fifties Expo, and I was able to go for the first time in a while. When I was in high school I was a member of the Art Deco Society and this sale was where I would buy the majority of my school clothes (I was a weird kid- I wore a lot of 1930's rayon print dresses, heels, and fur coats to school). I still love to go and look at the gorgeous clothing, jewelery, and exquisite furniture. Here are some things I noticed while poking around today.
