Sheet Music and Snow
Here are some photos that I took for a friend's junior piano recital.
And here is the finished poster. It's the first poster I've ever made so it's pretty rough but we'll see how things go from here.

Sarah Hobbs
It's easy to say I'm obsessed.
Better quality photos here.
"Before Sarah Hobbs begins staging scenes in her Atlanta home (which doubles as her studio), she first researches such human behavior as phobias and obsessive compulsive activity. Small Problems in Living, her sixth series to explore the psyche, is also her first solo exhibition. It ranges in subject from clautrophobia to vanity but consistently constructs acute tableaux within domestic settings. Obsessiveness is seen as a room painted in chocolate, the empty candy wrappers clustered in a mound on the dropcloth. Insomnia is a bevy of yellow notes suspended just above an empty bed. These neuroses and mental disturbances manifest themselves in objects cluttering otherwise sparsely furnished rooms, multiplied to overtake if not quite overwhelm the space. There is just enough space left to allow the room an occupant (though one is never pictured), one who could hardly help but notice the unique elements featured there but would not yet be immobilized by them.
Sarah Hobbs was born in Lynchburg, Virginia in 1970, and began to photograph when she was seven years old. She earned both her BFA in Art History (1992) and her MFA in Photography (2000) from the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia. Her solo exhibitions include SubUrban: Sarah Hobbs at Knoxville Museum of Art in Tennessee, Small Problems in Living at Yossi Milo Gallery in New York, and Small Problems in Living at Solomon Projects in Atlanta, Georgia. She has also exhibited in Chicago at Woman Made Gallery; in Poughkeepsire, New York at Barrett House Gallery; in Athens, Georgia at Athens ACademy and Georgia Museum of ARt; and in Atlanta at Georgia State University Gallery, Artwalk, The Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, Upstairs Gallery, and Trinity School Art Auction. Her work is in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, Brooklyn Mseum of Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and Montclair Art Museum, New Jersey. Hobbs lives and works in Atlanta."

My Muse and a Camera
Pipo already announced the news about Polaroid coming out with its Polaroid One Step Camera in the [hopefully] near future.
In the past month, it was announced that Lady Gaga is teaming up with Polaroid as their new creative director.

I'm curious because the technology cannot really be altered because that is what allowed Polaroid to go down in photography history as iconic. The physical body of the camera bears the same distinct recognizability. Maybe she'll just encrust it in glitter.
Either way, I expect great things...

Manuel Albarran
Here's the genius behind the metalwork face masks of the 'mafiosa' in Lady Gaga's music video Bad Romance. Used in art, fashion, and cinema, Albarran has created a new branch of artisanry he deems as 'Metal Couture.' I'm not disagreeing.
The Spanish artist first got on the radar for his Dazed and Confused editorial.
I love these headpieces.
How much editing do you think it took to take out the photographer's reflection?
