Beauty in Paper Cut: Yulia Brodskaya's beautiful illustrations

Art, talent and beauty make those hard times less painful for some of us. I am addicted to them like Madoff was addicted to added zeroes in his bank accounts. Brodskaya's talent is one I admire. The precision and dedication needed to create her figures are staggering. And, of course, like any really talented artist, she makes it seem like a breeze. You can see more of her art on DesignBoom.

Nice House.. if You Can Get it

The owners are probably living in their car by now but this house makes me sigh with envy and delight.

It's more museum than home but it is beautiful with wood, light and great design galore.
