Missed Connections
January 14, 2010
I had no idea that something on Craiglist can turned into such beautiful arts. If you are as clueless as I was, read the article right here.
Sophie Blackall, an editorial + children’s book illustrator, was inspired by the heartfelt messages on Craiglist New York’s missed connection forum and thus the Missed Connections project was born. It is basically an ongoing series of paintings based on real, anonymous messages posted online by lovelorn strangers. I love her illustration style and the way she convey some regular messages into a work of art. Besides, all these true stories are just so interesting.
All of these beautiful illustrations are on sale over at her Etsy shop.
