Here for Alba
Anish Kapoor creates large-scale sculptures which have an architectural quality about them. His sculptures are more about the artist’s expression than it is about expressing an idea or message.

Tapumes
Henrique Oliveira uses recycled “Tapumes” (sidings made of plywood in english) to create his sculpture and installations. Full of texture, color and movement, these pieces reflect a work path he chose while in school.
80 in x 160 in - From the Filigree series - Acrylic and sumi ink on hanging cut papers
I seem to be on a kick for revisiting artists that I have previously featured. 
I have really enjoyed looking back through old posts and finding how each artists work has evolved. I featured a piece, Growth I, by Katherine Mann in 2008, and I was thrilled to find new work from her in my inbox.
Ink and watercolour on paper, 5x7 inches
I first featured Marc Johns’ drawing, the boxes we put people in, in 2008 and I am so happy that I took the time to revisit his website. Johns’ comedic drawings are as creative as they are funny.
Mooi ‘West - Group Exhibition - Academe Minerva Groningen
I was pleasantly surprised to find Lennard Schuurmans’ work in my inbox last week. Schuurmans creates some amazing, playful murals and illustrations.

Nathan Dube was the first artist featured on Today in Art when I launched the site in November 2007. Since then I have changed the style of how I post and I wanted to revisit Nathan to feature more of his work. I love the childlike nature of his work as it invites the viewer to interact with it. Another wonderful touch is the instructions that come with many of the pieces, illustrated like a comic.
Creative iPhone, iPod and iPad apps
I decided to write a post about iPhone apps to explore how art is influencing the world around us. I set out to find apps that are creative and imagery to interact with the user in a unique way. Games immediately come to mind when I begin my search, but I started to see amazing utility apps like clocks and music generators that have been completely re-imagined.
The Hanging Man - silicon, paint and human hair - 140.0 x 50.0 cm
Sam Jinks creates amazing and erie hyperrealistic sculptures that you would expect to move at any moment. Jinks’ attention to detail is superb.
TransNatural
I first found Lucy McRae when she was collaborating with Bart Hess. Lucy’s latest work, TransNatural will be opening this Friday, February 19, 2010. TransNatural explores “the crossover between nature and technology.”
Baby, It's Over - mixed media
If this work looks familiar, it might be because Gary Taxali’s illustrations have appeared in many magazines as well as Amiee Mann’s album art. Taxali’s illustrations have a rich inviting quality about them that draw me in to tell me their story.
A place for you to share.
