I work at a major stock photo company cataloging images. The majority of the stuff I work with will never see the light of day for no other reason than that most people don’t know it’s available to them. It’s a shame which I’m trying to remedy with this site. As an amateur designer, I occasionally can’t help but play around with the images I see floating across my desk on a daily basis. This site contains the results.

More collages at Schtock.

Stumbled upon the Amazing Rare Things exhibit today while perusing Efimera, which makes me wish my Spanish skills were sharper. It features the work of Mark Catesby and Maria Sibylla Merian (love this painting of hers) among others.

I’m going to christen this art style, a perennial Modcult favorite, retronatural.
