Hello peeps! Hope this finds you well. I was hoping to get a Cosmic Icon post up tonight, however it’s getting late (on Monday night) and I’m getting tired, so I thought I would share with you a Visual Diary post instead. This Visual Diary is a collection of artists whose work was featured in the # 83 issue of New American Paintings: The Midwestern Competition.

New American Paintings is an amazing periodical that features artists from across the US. If you haven’t already done so, you should definitely check it out. I’ve had a subscription to New American Paintings off and on for the past few years or so, but before that, I would pick it up at the local art store, or book store whenever I could afford it. It’s not cheap at $20 a pop, but in my opinion, well worth it if you’re a practicing artist looking for some inspiration.

Whenever I get my new issue, I thumb through it almost immediately and pick out my favorites (a.k.a. those artists whose work most strikes my visual fancy). I’ve been meaning to document these favorites for quite a while, but am just now getting around to it. Sadly enough, I’m behind a few issues, but you can be sure to expect future postings showcasing more of my favorite New American Painters soon…so stay tuned and stay inspired! Until then, I hope you enjoy these wonderful works by Amy Casey, Anna Joelsdottier, Randall Tiedman and Hans Habeger, cheers!
