Melissa Manwill

If you want your pretty little socks blown off, you need to see Melissa Manwill’s work. As some of my favorite people to learn from and study, students embody so much of what it means to be an artist. Now I don’t mean the crippling debt, the abundance of ramen

With New Years resolutions rolling off everyone’s tongues like fibbery from an 11 year old arsonist claiming he didn’t know how mother’s prized magnolias were reduced to ash, I feel it appropriate to feature an artist that sets the bar so high some would claim he was telling whoppers himself.

Alexia Tryfon

I’m pretty sure Alexia Tryfon is being followed by a pack of pixies. I don’t want to alarm anyone, but it seems that there are sparkles and prisms reflecting colors everywhere she goes. Everything around her is brilliant and beautiful, but then again, so is the artwork she creates. I
