Calef Brown

My latest artist-crush: Calef Brown. Like a little schoolgirl, I get all blushy as I’ve been eyeing and jonesing his fun fun fun! paintings and books from afar. There’s a sort of self-taught, outsider/folk-art feel to his work. I guess that’s why I get all twitterpated, as I really dig his colorful, rough, quirky, handmade style. It’s a refreshing break from that crazy digital world.

    I absolutely adore Calef Brown. His books ‘Polka Bats and Octopus Slacks’ and ‘Ducth Sneakers and Flea Keepers’ are easily amoung my kids’ top favorites, making him a sort of nouveau Dr. Seuss for the under ten generation.

    I have a new love in my life. His name is Calef Brown. I wonder how my wife will take the news.

    Well, don’t get me wrong when I say that I can take him or leave him. He has Uber-Talent! I just feel like I’ve seen this style way too many times before.
