I am often surprised by how seriously people take their origami, the masters can create some really amazing pieces.

Not Just The Chinese

Although the origins are traced to China, there are independent paper folding traditions found in some European countries as well.

When I start looking for images I find them from global locations and everything from quick and simple to elaborate, detailed works of paper art.

I Can’t Do It

It is truly amazing how a flat sheet of paper can become a beautiful unicorn in motion by just folding in the right places. I know I’ve tried my hand at folding (horses of course). About 20 frustrated minutes and 20 sheets of wasted paper later, I’m not ashamed to say I gave up.

Horse Artist – Iwona Jankowski

Unperturbed NightEquine art never ceases to inspires and motivates horse lovers, myself included. So I wanted to profile some of the amazing artists out there who use horses as their subject.

Lucky for me, there is a lot of it out there and it means I’ll be spending countless hours looking through all of it.

The Artist

Iwona Jankowski’s horse art captures the strength and power of the horse while at the same time celebrating them with a colorful abstract touch.

“There is a beauty in every aspect of my life and I have a need to share it with others.”

Inspired by her sculpture teacher in Art School, Iwona learned how to effectively make her images worth a thousand words.

“I hope my art will bring some people escape, peace and provide relaxation from today’s daily lackluster world.”

That said, feast your eyes on some of her pieces & her words about each one. Read more →
