i’m jealous of guy catling
Hm… amazing how a little floral patterning can soften an image. Like a rocky landscape, or a black & white portrait:
… or skateboarders:
… or a bit of historical combat:
See… suddenly the skateboarders look sweeter, and even the war images feel a tiny bit less scary. These flowered beauties are the collage work of Essex based artist Guy Catling. Now, tell me if I’m alone, but they kinda make me wanna throw on a muu muu and start sticking flowery wallpaper to everything. You too?

You beat me to posting about him! 😉 Don’t you just loooove his work?? Sometimes collage seems so 2011, but then I see work like this and it blows me away. Guy has got it going on! Thanks for the shout out, lady!
Uh YES me too! Weekend project?

Yes! Love love love these. I’m SO inspired! xo
Amazing! I love these so much

Really? Why not do the same to the holocaust pictures or the immigrants landing off boats in Greece? Brighten them up a bit too ?
