]]>It all started when a colleague of hers asked to make a gift for his friend, a “big fantasy fan and an avid reader.” Sachenwerkler usually creates lamps for herself, but she accepted the commission.
She began the project by printing the book covers on paper and then gluing them to cardboard. Next, she started working on the dragon’s nest using acrylic Easter eggs and a nest formed from aluminum foil. When she was done making the base plate of different heights of Styrodur sheets, she began with the painting.
“But as I want the nest to be glowing, I need it to be transparent. So after drying I once again cover it with foil. The foil serves as a separating layer, because on it I now glue several layers of yellow transparent paper on it,” she said in a statement for Bored Panda.
She finished her project by decorating the dragon eggs and adding LED lamps. She also made two baby dragons who had already hatched.
Check out the gallery below to see her brilliant work.

]]>His work is the result of his dreams, as well as a lifelong obsession with LEGO, hay forts, and computers. “I hesitate to talk about how much dreams inspire my work, since its almost a cliché and boring to listen to, but it can’t be understated,” he admitted in an interview with Line Gallery. “There’s a kind of magic vitality there that’s almost impossible to put into words, and images can only hint at it. So yes, its possible to read a lot into the work psychologically speaking.”
His digital landscapes are meant to be a combination of creepy and whimsical – a sort of immersive universe that invites the viewer in. “Perhaps this boils down to wanting my drawings to be haunted in the same way that my dreams locales often feel haunted,” remarked Borrett.
“I hope that a viewer will be able to put themselves in my spaces,” he adds. “To that end, I’ve avoided adding any figures of any kind to inhabit the rooms, so the viewer is free to imagine themselves inhabiting them if they choose.”

My own Irish heritage drives my interest in Celtic lore. Nature and wildlife was a huge part of Celtic traditions, hence the heavy use of animals and plants in my works.”
Fritsch’s named her latest product line “The Victorian Collection” where she makes jewelry inspired by the 1800s. The artist and jeweler shares her work on her social media, on her Instagram account where you can see some of her creations.

]]>Graduating from University with an emphasis in illustration, Mrozik has worked with multiple international galleries. She primarily makes drawings, often composed from watercolor, graphite, acrylic, and ink, and is currently based in Portland, Oregon.
“I’m in pursuit of liminal spaces, listening, patience and quiet,” explained the artist in an interview with Flesh & Bone Magazine. “I think art speaks in ways that words cannot and there is power in both metaphor and image; that there are vague but intense places of emotion and intention that need more room and less definition so that we can exist as the overflowing, messy beings that we are.”
Mrozik says that “we all carry frustrating truths and fears and it’s better to untangle and look at them

. Print info: Some questions seem to have no answers. The pain of them lingers somewhere deep in the body, invisible because it’s so built into our structures we can’t see it. It’s built into our foundation, our bones— it’s hidden inside the sturdy stable thing that holds everything else together. I don’t know how to go about picking it apart but I know it needs to reveal itself, it needs to change. Something needs to erupt forth and blossom anew if I can muster the bravery to bear it. The question is then, how do we change the foundation to allow the core to blossom. Can I, the true me, the secret me beneath myself, the one that is separate from the social norms and parent’s expectations, the one who thinks unusual things in unusual ways, can I invade myself and pop up like weeds, blossoming in every nook and corner. Can I replace myself? It hurts to move forward. I often feel paralyzed, so tender and so in need of being comforted. I wonder if this new skeleton can embrace me, can hold the current me that is so delicate? Who is the I to which I speak in my mind? Who is the truth that works on instinct and deep knowledge, that internal decision maker I have to yet learn how to trust? Why did no one ever tell me she was there, and why did it take so long for me to realize how desperately I need her? I hope we can fall apart so that we can rebuild something integral, that we can bloom like the dandelion and spread our seeds in the winds of change, and grow a new skeleton in which to lean into. I hope in learning to look at the thing behind the thing, our vulnerability can find comfort in asking the questions together. I hope. I feel. I know. I am. Delicate, and possible
