how i found paul paper

i want to encourage you regarding something: if you find an artist online and their work speaks to you but their website doesn’t show prints for sale, just email them! i can tell you from my experiences that you can find a lot of unique and exciting art this way. i also find that the pricing is usually in my range as well which might be a fluke but still. my example is that a few months ago i fell completely in love with the photography of paul paper out of Lithuania {who goes by the flickr name of and some other}. i emailed him and got a few prints, to start, and i just couldn’t be happier with them. i’m planning to email him again soon for more! moral of the story: when it comes to art, it never hurts to ask. paul paper’s photographs featured in this post are entitled legs {top} and that’s why i’m lying here {bottom}.

maria is a friend of mine and she happens to be collaborating with paul on a book! i believe that he found her in a similar way that you found him….

thanks for the great finds!
