The past 8,5 years have been about between worlds, of moving on and finding something new, of missed chances, and promises on distant horizons.

This is a postcard was sent on June 13, 1918. Send from a soldier attending boot camp, who was throughly enjoying himself.

Rex Ray in the company of Elizabeth Peyton. Both contemporary modernists. When I watch Rex Ray his work there is a joy to it that is so fresh it makes me happy. Elizabeth Peyton is an artist who moves paint around like the rock stars she loves as her subjects. To me they both attack their craft with the passion of a person possessed. Just the way I like it.
I found these via Pinktentacle. See their website for translations of the posters. They are truly great.
