Oh\u00a0my<\/em>. When these washy beauties showed up in my inbox I almost started writing today’s post immediately (ok, not almost… I totally started that very second)<\/em>. These dreamy, yet kinda eery, watercolor & resin portraits are the work of American artist\u00a0Lisa Krannichfeld<\/a>. All of them\u00a0(and there are many more where these came from)<\/em> are part of her “Glass Menagerie” <\/a>series. Here’s Lisa’s explanation:<\/p>\n

During my undergraduate years as a biology major I took a course in entomology. For an assignment I had to create an insect collection, carefully collecting specimens, killing them in a way as to not damage their bodies, posing them to best display their anatomy and containing them in a pristine wooden box. \u00a0Beautiful, numbered and preserved for all time. \u00a0In this series I wanted to explore capturing human emotion in a similar way. The problem with that is emotions are fleeting, inexact, and often blended with other feelings. The free, impulsive nature of watercolor offered a perfect medium. \u00a0The colors bleed and crash into each other; thin in places, intense in others, as the complexity of the emotions unfold. \u00a0The pieces are finished in a high gloss, indestructible resin, readying the specimens for display. \u00a0Together, a Glass Menagerie.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

(ps. a few of these pieces are available as 11″x14″ prints… for $35!! um, yep, i’ll meet you over at\u00a0her shop<\/a>!)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
