Jennifer’s McCurdy’s porcelain pottery looks almost as alive as its inspiration.
McCurdy on her work:
Emotion fills me when I see perfect forms in nature, from the cracked conch shell on the beach revealing its perfect spiral, to the milkweed pod burst in the field, its brilliant airborne seeds streaming into the sunlight. The ordered symmetry and asymmetry of nature’s forms reveal the growth of life, the movement of life.
Living on Martha’s Vineyard, island time, especially in the winter, seems to conform to nature’s cycles. As a potter, I strive to make my work reflect the balance of life around me. It is important that the patterns I see around me are integrated into my forms.
The dinosaur formerly known as Brachiosaurus brancai was possibly the best dinosaur, but try as I might, I can never do it justice. Here’s another attempt at making it look regal by having it roll around in mud. I think I may have a strategy problem here.
I haven’t been puting much work up recently because of the top secret book project sapping nearly all my painting time. I’ve been working on this Photoshop painting for ages, and I’m glad to get it out the door. I’m considering making it part of a panorama.
Texstyle Creatures by Jeremy Kool
To showcase some of the high-end fabrics from Texstyle, Jeremy remastered some of the animal kingdom’s greatest hits using CG modeled textures that look amazingly realistic and soft to the caress. I want to pet them so hard.

Mobius Nautilus is a 3D printed sculpture by Joaquin Baldwin
About the project:
A compound mobius strip created out of 36 interlocking mobius strips. All segments are thin mobius strips, and they weave and interlock perfectly through the spaces left between them. Highly complex, and a headache to look at, yet it possesses an inherent mathematical simplicity and beauty.
