Face Masks by Caitlin MacBride

Paint inspiration on painted spoons is BORING. At SnOOp we think what better way to encourage the use of natural paints for the home than this. Blending natural pigments, seeds and fruit extracts, New York-based artist Caitlin MacBride has created a colourful collection of portraits in collaboration with photographer Marco Roso.

Taking concepts of beauty into vibrant abstract expressionism, MacBride’s compositions feature thick, textured brushstrokes and seed embellishments.

The full catalogue of images can be seen on Dis Magazine. Why not check out our post New Ideas With Paint

      Design Trick: Use a white or black background to display your free expression with paint. If you contain it in certain areas it goes from being an accident to a work of art. Fabric by Claudia Caiezel

It's time to break the rules! SPLISH, SPLASH and FLICK! No more painting within the lines, no more stress if the paint drips on the floor and Hallelujah if your toddler or teenager gets wild with paint on a wall or your latest sketch for a new design.  

Doom, Gloom and Stress is a constant theme in the world. I don't know about you but it feels like a very wet blanket has hung from many shoulders which is exhausting.

 FUN, FREEDOM and FRESHNESS is my new theme! For me this approach to design is sticking two fingers up and saying thanks for your advice but I will take it from here.

I know some of you think I've gone mad but why not find your inner Jackson Pollock on an old  tablecloth and tell me if it puts a smile on your face.
