Megan Whitmarsh, School Supplies, 2011, embroidery thread, fabric, batting
(dimensions variable)

If you covet those back-to-school supplies from the good old days -- you know, before iPads, zip drives, teleportation devices, whatever -- you're going to love these soft sculptures by Los Angeles artist, Megan Whitmarsh. We've loved her art before on this blog. Take a look.

These handmade little love notes to classic back-to-school supplies (The Pink Pearl eraser! The #2 pencil!) just make us smile. Who wouldn't want to memorialize all those PSATs and SATs that we took? Check out her new body of work, School Supplies, on Grey Area.
