Nostalgia AND linocut prints… two of my favorite things in one spotlight! This is the work of NSTATMA Society member, American artist Laura Jacobsen. Now, most of her portfolio is filled with paintings {also lovely}, but I have a soft spot for lino… and, let’s be honest, those Wonder Woman Underoos had to be featured! Check out Laura’s online shop, and follow her on Instagram at @lauramenardijacobsen.

“Making A Great Exhibition”. Ah, this is such a lovely {and very informative!} book by Doro Globus and Rose Blake… and I happen to have a copy to GIVE AWAY TO ONE OF YOU!

“An exciting insight into the workings of artists and museums, Making a Great Exhibition is a colorful and playful introduction geared to children ages 3 to 7 … This fun, inside look at the life of an artwork shows the journey of two artists’ work from studio to exhibition. Stopping along the way we meet colorful characters—curators, photographers, shippers, museum visitors, and more … Both illustrator and author were raised in the art world, spending their time in studios, doing homework in museum offices, and going to special openings. They have teamed up to share their experiences and love for this often mysterious world to a young audience.” ~ David Zwirner Books

As I said in my blurb for this book, I wish I’d had it when I was a kid. I had no idea there were soooo many art jobs! If you’d like to enter for a chance to win this artsy package - book, cute tote, pencil crayons and stickers - just comment on this post, and I’ll reveal the winner in next Saturday’s email. Good luck!

Have a lovely, creativity-filled weekend! ~ Danielle
