Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

I’d like to live in Andrew B. Myer‘s world, just for one day.

No, not The Hills, the Perth hills. The shady-sweet eucalypt-smelling Perth hills. Not a boob job or a statement handbag in sight, but there is cute shoes in common between the two – in the work of hills girl Moira Court. She is an incredible illustrator and maker that we’ve not yet had the pleasure of meeting, but her art does adorn an M&D wall. Our bear wears a crown.

There is no-one who loves paper more than we do here at Mitchell & Dent. Oh heck, yes there is. Have you seen the ridiculousness of Cuban-born USA-based Elsa Mora‘s work? We have long been fans of her papercut pieces and her paintings and her miniature books and her illustration and her handmade dolls and almost everything she touches. We love her story and we’d like to meet her and have a cup of tea with her. And ask her how on earth she finds the patience to make extraordinary things like these teeny titchy little papercut rings.

This is a bow. Yes. It is made of wood. And it is made by Christine Buckton Tillman who also makes art and other lovely loveliness. However, if you are Stephen (and you know who you are), this is a boinchkibum.

I live in a street that is being messed about with by developers so that lovely little old cottages like ours (built in 1905) are bulldozed to make way for multi-story townhouses. It makes me feel really miffed. I’m also mad about the bevvy of builders and their noisy morning machines. Why do they insist on starting at 6-something, even on a Saturday? I’m just like these guys – very angry little wooden wrestlers by The Boy Frost. Except for the diamond daks.

Madame Mitchell and Madame Dent cannot believe it is February already. They have big ideas for 2011, but best get a wriggle on if the year insists on slipping away like this. Madame Dent thinks it is rather tricky when all of her ideas still look very much like this incredible installation artwork by Nami Yamamoto. Mind you, Mr Messy does too and he’s done alright for himself.

Julian Callos is an artist living in Los Angeles. This is what he gave his friends for Christmas (just a small selection). He made each one of his tribe a spirit animal that represents them. They are completely amazing and I bet they are now cherished and adored and talked about and handled with loving care by their new proud owners. Heh, art is a great thing, isn’t it?

The mesdames do occasionally step away from the letterpress and explore other media. If you were wondering what type of things Mitchell & Dent have to show at this weekend’s SODA Gift 2010 exhibition, here is a little sneaky peek of one of Leah Dent’s acrylic on ply paintings. And there’s more where that came from. You’ll just have to come visit – details in the post before last.
