FAOTW-Featured Artists of the Week
02/08/09 22:38 Filed in: Featured Artist
This weeks artists are by far our most playful and colorful featured artists to date. Both MFM-Apparel and Variation also create art forms which we have never featured here at Mod3rnart - We love the new stuff!!! Please take a minute and feast your eyes on the beauty these two artists create, who knows......you might just be their next customer!!!
MFM-Apparel: "Minty Fresh Monster Apparel is run by two Minneapolis Natives, Saman and Erica. The “Mintee Fresh Monster” was born in the fall of 2007, after three months of trying to figure out a good name for this T-shirt company. It's sort of like the “Jolly Green Giant” but more trendy or something. And we sell T-shirts and not peas." With a story line like that, how could you not love MFM-Apparel? Anyone that follows this blog and remembers this entry: T-Shirts Are Art Too understands my deep-pleasure for crazy t-shirts, so I 100% support MFM-Apparel in their bid to create a New World Order with their shirt company. Check out their etsy store and our gallery feature.
Variation: Well Variation is just that - Variation. "I love to work in a wide variety of mediums, hence the name of my Etsy shop!" Most artists just stick with one art form ( I know we do) but this talented etsy artist cross creates with many different types of materials and techniques. (Send some talent my way)
"I also knit, crochet, embroider, sew, do some bookbinding and letterpress, metalsmithing, collage/ assemblage, digital graphics and animation. I've always been inspired by the amazing work I see from many, many artists and crafters, past and present, across all mediums. Drawing inspiration from great people is a beautiful way to create yourself and one can see from the images above and in our gallery that Variation is two things for sure: Diverse and Talented - Bravo!!!
