Delight in the details: The Hundley's magnificent mess

Marc and Ian HundleyOn my daily scroll through Apartment Therapy I saw the wonderful post about a blog called The Selby.
The latest addition there is a post about Ian and Marc Hundley's magnificent mess. They are artists in Brooklyn and somehow their living space falls together seemingly by accident. I think the neutral base of white, pale blue and rich browns work, as well as all the natural light.
What I really enjoy though, are the little details like this old rusty razor and tin (?) cut out birds and tree balanced on the frame. It is the sort of interior I would love to poke around in.
Thanks for sharing The Selby, check out Marc and Ian Hundley - Artists at home.

Natasha Newton's stoney bleak beauty

Leafless trees and stone coloured skies are common imagery in the subtly textured acrylic on canvas work of Natasha Newton.
The painting above is called The Pattern Of The Earth 5 and to me it has a wonderfully dreamy quality and reminds me of the potential that the middle of winter has for Spring to come.
Check out Natasha Newton's website, blog or Etsy shop.
