Martina Nehrling fills paper and canvas with textured slashes and splatters.  The paintings are alive with motion as the lines direct your eyes through the vivid dancing colors.

Devon Tsuno does some fantastic layered stencil work.

Here are some fantastic paintings by Kurt Lighter.

The artwork of Alexa Meade is certainly much more than my title suggests and lives somewhere between photography, painting and performance. These illusionistic installations require tedious attention to detail to pull off such a wonderful visual effect.

I recently setup a new Today in Art Flickr group and have been overwhelmed with the quality and variety of the participation. The purpose of this group is to find new artists on Flickr to feature on todayinart.com. So, I wanted to create this post to thank those who are participating already and encourage new folks to join.

Wil Murray’s mixed media artwork blurs the lines between disciplines as well as genres. These pieces have an identify complex that I love.

Kostis Velonis creates sculpture, often times influenced from other places or works, and constructed from found objects, wood and other materials.

The artwork of Jeremy Fish is playfully scary and just plain fun to look at. Most of his art is rich with graphic detail with a minimal color palette. When viewing his work online you will immediately get his angle by the URL of his website, sillypinkbunnies.com.

Shawn Smith’s sculpture are 3D representations of low resolution images and have the appearance I have zoomed in too much. I am fascinated at the detail he has put into these creations, capturing the pixelated color variation that screens use to display color.
