Heidi Caillier believes that our homes should create a sense of place, and serve as the setting for lifelong memories. In her first book, she shares twelve houses from across the country, from the islands of Puget Sound to the Berkshires. The rooms of these houses are simultaneously nostalgic and of the moment. Caillier is a master of mixing patterns, combining florals with graphic lines and shapes, as well as using deeper, muddy colors to create coziness and warmth. There is a tension between masculine and feminine, modern and traditional as vintage pieces mingle with contemporary to create spaces that feel intrinsically inviting and effortlessly designed. Format: Hardcover Length: 256 Pages Weight: 1.25 lbs Dimensions: 8.91 x 1.14 x 11.3 inches

Another day of exploring the huge site at Pyestock. Decided to go for a few closer shots today as all previous trips I have focussed on the wider and amazing vistas. The complexity of the place boggles my mind when I look at all the equipment, turbines, vacume chambers, power plant, electrical cabling, pipes and an even larger profusion of stuff that I wouldn't know how to describe let alone name. It all was put there to work in unison like a single 'town sized' machine and the fact that it DID work blows my mind.

Thumbelina in the Marsh (from the Thumbelina Collection) by Annie Stegg If you love fairy tale illustrations and haven't heard of Annie Stegg, do yourself a favor and go look her up right now. [Her blog and gallery are HERE and HERE - you're welcome. :) ] Ms. Stegg's work is inspired by folklore, mythology and nature so it was only a matter of time before she illustrated a fairy tale and right now she's currently hard at work on a "Thumbelina Collection". I don't think I could have chosen a better tale for her to focus on. The Toad in progress (Thumbelina Collection) by Annie Stegg (If it's been a while since you read HCA's story of the thumb sized girl born in a flower, it's worth brushing up on HERE [link goes to the tale overview at Wikipedia] and be sure not to miss SurLaLune's wonderful annotations [and lots more] on the tale HERE.) Faerie Queen (Thumbelina Collection) by Annie Stegg Though the "Thumbelina Collection" apparently began as a project for Spectrum Fantastic Art Live 2* Ms. Stegg has been adding to the series since the event ended (on May 19, 2013) and boy are we glad about that. On Tuesday June 4, she posted a sneak peek of another piece, "The Duchess of Oak Nut" (shown below) and announced she'd be working on "The Duke" next. Could this hail a book in the making?! *closes eyes tight and wishes very hard* The Duchess of Oak Nut - in progress (Thumbelina Collection) by Annie Stegg Justin Gerard at Muddy Colors got a pre-Spectrum look at the collection a few weeks ago, with bonus interview to boot. Ms. Stegg discusses her love of Hans Christian Andersen's tale and how it represents, for her, a special childlike wonder people, far too often, lose. From all I've seen in response to Ms. Stegg's work (on blogs, Tumblrs, Pinterest boards etc) it's clear that one of the special things about her art is that it helps bring that sense of wonder back. ("There's magic in that there paint brush!") Here's an excerpt from the Muddy Colors interview: JG: So speaking of your work, you are currently working on a series of paintings based on Hans Christian Anderson's Thumbelina fairy tale. Can you tell us a bit more about that? Thumbelina in the Marsh - sketch & final (Thumbelina Collection) by Annie Stegg AS: I have wanted to do a series on this fairy tale for a while now. The reason I like Thumbelina has largely to do with the magic and mystery of childhood. When we are young, the world is so big and magical and I think you lose some of that when you grow up. I like to imagine a place where everything is still a little unknown, and there is so much left to discover. Stories like Thumbelina help you to see your own commonplace world with fresh eyes and you can begin to appreciate just how amazing the world really is again. It's like being a child again in many ways, and capturing that sense of wonder about the world around us. The Swallow (Thumbelina Collection - framed) by Annie Stegg You can read the whole interview HERE and see different views of the various works shown in this post (Psst! Check out The Swallow full size - the colors & details are stunning) and, of course, even more wonderful artwork too. While Ms. Stegg's pieces reminds me of the work of beloved fairy tale and fantasy artist Kinuko Y. Craft, and, like Ms. Craft's work, shows the influence of Roccoco painters, it is most definitely her own. It's no wonder she's quickly becoming a favorite fantasy artist all over the world. You can follow Annie Stegg on Twitter HERE, where she posts regular artwork updates or on Facebook HERE where she does the same. Her official - and gorgeous! - gallery is HERE.

"Kinuko Craft is a Renaissance woman. By this I mean not that she paints like the Renaissance painters, but that she is an artist for all seasons, for all kinds of subjects, and in all kinds of styles. If you will survey her works, you will find little duplication in form, color or texture. She fits
