WOW, aka a preview of Chris Ware’s new and very brilliant magnum opus, Building Stories
Link: It’s Nice That : WOW, aka a preview of Chris Ware’s new and very brilliant magnum opus, Building StoriesChris Ware, who is widely-known to dismiss in self-deprecating tones any personal merit adjoined to his work (rumour has it he is collecting up and destroying one of his earliest published endeavours), is perhaps not ready to receive this thanks or the praise his latest, indubitable magnum opus Building Stories will inspire.

Folky illustrations from Talita Hoffmann that question life wonderfully
Link: It’s Nice ThatTalita Hoffmann is a good example of this in her detailed paintings that draw upon a vast bank of subjects such as animals, plants, rural structures, musical instruments and tools among others.
