Mallory Page is a young artist working out of her studio on Julia Street in New Orleans. Her large scale works are emotion evoking and extremely impactful. Below are a few of my favorites but make sure to check out her website for a more complete portfolio of her work.

A couple of days ago, I was scrolling through the new Lonny issue when I came across a flock of sheep. Yes - sheep, a beautiful herd of sculpted sheep by the husband and wife artist duo of Francois-Xavier Lalanne (1927-2008) and Claude Lalanne (b.1924). Creating works under the name of Les Lalannes, the duo collaborated to create surrealist pieces that often reference animals and the botanical. The flocks of bronze and wool sheep are new to me but I have seen images of their other most iconic piece - the rhino desk.

The sheep are by far my favorite of their works. I think they would be amazing in any setting especially if there were multiples - sort of like these examples.

Seeing as a singular sheep goes for the hundreds of thousands of dollars at auction, I don't think I will ever be able to have a flock of my own. However, REMODELISTA did a feature about stand-ins for the "elusive Lalanne sheep sculptures" and while surely not the same could be pretty amazing. These are my favorite - $375 each.

Festive Maddie by Theron Humphrey
Jeff and I are huge dog lovers and I think it would be a fair assessment to say we are a bit obsessed with Booker. My love for dogs started at a very young age and I even proclaimed to my parents that when I grew up I wanted to live on a mountain with just my dogs - clearly an introvert from a young age. I had dogs as a kid and loved all of them but I have to say Booker is like my child or as we call him our toddler. He is full of energy, can be rather "emotional" and craves attention above all else (except maybe his kibble and his frisbee). For all these reasons, this is why I think Maddie and Theron's story is so amazing. Maddie is a coonhound and Theron is her owner/photographer. After adopting Maddie just two years ago, Theron discovered that she had incredible balance and patience. With this finding, he started photographing Maddie across the country in unusual and usual places while working on a documentary. This past Spring, Maddie on Things the book was realized and the pair have spent the past months on a book tour. Unfortunately, I did not get to meet Maddie and Theron while they were in St. Louis but their book is definitely on my Christmas list. I think every photo of Maddie is pretty great but below are some of my favorites. To learn more about Maddie and Theron visit their website or buy their book!
