I found this painting by Malcolm Liepke and it’s my favorite because it’s the only time I’ve been like, ‘huh that kinda looks like me’. Makes me feel special. She’s also like so cool, so.

I just really like her I know this isn’t niche and everyone really likes her but whatever. And I’d like to believe that when I draw something that is very good and one of one that I too was compelled by some spiritual higher power because it really feels that way sometimes !

Art is about more than identity, can allow us to transcend identity, but having been raised in the art world of the 90s, when painting was dying and women weren’t given the wall space they deserved, it’s a joy to watch femme painters rise to the top of the pile creatively and financially. I am lucky enough to cherish works by Jenna Gribbon, Jocelyn Hobbie, Kyle Staver, Ellen Birkinblit and my dear friend Issy Wood. I am currently obsessed with Larissa De Jesus Negron, Petra Cortright, Lucy Bull, Robin F. Williams, Somaya Critchlow, Gina Beavers and Cynthia Talmadge. It’s a lifetime dream to have a massive Lisa Yuskavage to wake up to (though I do have a print she gave me for my 26th birthday when I had a Soul Cycle party and everyone was mad except Lisa, who kicked all our millenial asses on the bike.)

This sculpture is in SLAM’s permanent collection and they recently put it on display after a long time in storage
She’s my favorite artist, and you can look at this piece for an hour and it keeps feeling fresh, like you never get to the bottom of understanding it.
I like her work (and this piece in particular) because it’s emotionally rich. To me it embodies paradoxes like being both playful and somber, lively and elegiac, busy but unified, individual but collective, primal but contemporary, geometric and organic, abstract yet figurative, dissonant and harmonious, pattern and noise, cheeky and serious, quiet and commanding.
Go spend some time with her.
