Kashmiri Boaters and a beautiful blog

The images from 'Search Kashmir' are so beautiful and rich- so emotional. The post compares the shots of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Brian Brake, a decade apart, and then Brian Braks with Steve McCurry, four decades apart.

I feel like a need to go there and see these bodies in motion.

Landon Metz

still at the beginning of his career, Landon Metz has developed a style that draws you in with a narrative of shapes. His colors appear in forms that look uncontrolled, but the composition as a whole is sensitive and just right. 

It is not easy to know when to stop, or hold back. Metz does. Some of bolder colors are less harmonious to me in comparison to the more washed out tones, but it is all a mater of the evolution of the work. And nice to see more than one dimension to the artists' exploration.

Here is a selection, you'll see his body of work on his website
