Artist Crush: Allison Long Hardy

November 29th, 2012 · 1 Comment

Allison Long Hardy is a Virginia-based artist whose intricate work on paper takes on a variety of forms – dancing figures, doodles, acoustics, text, topography and graffiti. For more about the artist listen to her podcast interview.

“Communication is the one thing that binds us all together… When making work I am interested in the certain moments that communication or lack of communication occur and interpreting those moments through mark. What interests me most is when the marks that emerge on the page overlap and meld with the marks below or on top and create their own type of mark, something that I had not planned.” – from Allison’s artist statement

(revisiting an) artist crush: sofia arnold

Sofia Arnold is an artist I’d love to see more of. While I am a big fan of her paintings, I’m just loving these new pieces in colored pencil & nail polish (!). Sofia’s imperfect, gestural drawings are lighthearted and lovely.

Sofia’s work from 2011 as it appears on her website.
