i’m jealous of andrea kowch

Part of me really, really wants to visit this farm… however, a much larger part of me is kinda terrified at the thought of spending an afternoon here. Clearly, American artist Andrea Kowch is an insanely talented painter {just look at the detail in the clothes!} who knows exactly how to create feelings of uneasiness… I think it’s probably the tornado-like winds, the abundance of crows, and let’s be honest, those stunned pink-eyed rabbits aren’t making me feel any better about a day trip to the country.

    It is the slightly freaky women that make me not want to go!

    My fave is the dinner scene… very surreal and dream-like.

    totally… and the detail is insane! beautiful fabrics, creamy skin, and a very distressed chicken (rightfully so)

    I’m jealous, too!

    Exquisitely eerie, lushly detailed without being distracting. The “human” subjects’ apparent detachment has a definite lure.

    Thank you for sharing!

    Disgustingly awesome. Love these so much–thank you for posting them.

    Do you know Anne Siems? If not, I think you would love her. In person, her stuff is even more magical/luminous:http://www.annesiems.com/onPanel.html

    Someone needs to write them a fairy tale! They are very Grimm and lovely.

    These are beautiful, and I don’t mind the creep factor, I’d love to visit that farm.

    gorgeous work, totally original. i love the detail, the creepy goth look, the beautiful use of colour.

    These paintings are beautiful & haunting at the same time. The siblings eyes have something to say. It’s as if they know a dark secret and their eyes are betraying them.
