5 Artists I'm Obsessed With Right Now

M Kain

Happy August everyone!

People always ask where I get my inspiration from, so here’s the truth: I constantly stalk other artists. Not in a creepy way (I swear). But I’m always looking at how they use light, color, composition, and space. These 5 artists are constantly the ones I look at to spark new ideas and learn new skills.

Kohske, Simon Stalenhag, Refaza, Jess Winton, and Jocelin Carmes

And because you’re part of this newsletter, I want to share them with you, not gatekeep. You might find a new favorite or a new idea.

If this doesn't inspire you, flip the script. Create something that is the opposite of how you feel right now. Tired? Go bold. Anxious? Go serene.

If this inspires you, please forward it to someone who’d love it too.  New inspiration is everywhere, and sometimes seeing art that you didn't know existed helps.

Okay, talk soon!

Too busy to read this whole post?
All good, just know I made a list of artists who inspire me, and I think you’ll love them too.
I’m M. Kain, and my work is deeply influenced by the people who remind me to take creative risks.
Not inspired? Do the opposite of how you feel. Feeling inspired? Send this to a friend who needs a little spark.
