A little birdy told us something about a #SuperbOwl Sunday? 🦉 Couldn't really make out the request, he was in a rush to prepare for some televised game, but we're always happy to spotlight our feathered friends in the #MetCollection. See more Met owls: https://t.co/rn7EIHKX7E https://t.co/dfduxHfOKR

Congratulations to jessie_makinson for her inclusion in Phaidon’s last est publication Vitamin D3! The book is available via Phaidon, Amazon, and other art book sellers. “To look at Jessie Makinson’s drawings and paintings is to be pulled, with a quick jerk, into an intense color-filled world, full of characters, myths, moods and surreal curiosities. Hers is a place of chance encounters that draws subtly from our own historical myths, storytelling and art histories, albeit in landscapes where she dictates the rules of the location. … Makinson asks us to case traditional symbolic interpretation aside and, instead of thinking too hard about known classical myths, to interpret the narrative with our own subjective interpretation, thereby possibly fashioning a new contemporary mythology.” #lylesandking #jessiemakinson #phaidon #artbook #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #drawing
