primitive abstract ceramic art :: by shino's world

i have been on the hunt for handmade ceramic tumblers for quite some time now. needless to say, i've scoured nearly all of etsy believe it or not. i was delighted to come across shino's world during one of my monotonous searches.

not only does the talented shino create lovely abstract ceramic bowls, mugs and a wide range of other items you might need while eating or drinking but the items that intrigued me the most seemed to be the primitive geometric necklaces that are hand painted. bits of geometry are strung from a simple silk cord.

it's sheer shape invites people to just look upon it and be intrigued by it's quirkiness.

i want one so bad.

neon geometric wall art:: jenn smith of upper tiny

i wanted to start everyone's monday off on the right foot so what better way to do that than with jenn smith's, of upper tiny, playful neon tree slice art?!

thank god for etsy circles because i seriously find some of the greatest sheeeet from friends of mine on there. they have amazing taste as you can tell. i think this fantastic find was unearthed by rachel.

so i am lovin' jenn smith's work for many reasons:: color, simplicity, shape and canvas. oh, and did i mention she's also representin' chicago with me? here's what she had to say about her outlook on art::

"I love art that is funny, and generous, and doesn't take itself too seriously. My favorite artists are outsider artists, people who say they can't draw, and little kids."


i think that's great - and jenn - i think your work is great! i would love to have it all over my studio!
