Maira Kalman

I think you have to pay for TimesSelect to see it, but The Principles of Uncertainty, Maira Kalman's blog-like art project for the NY Times, is ridiculously cool. Check it out if you can. If you can't, you should at least take the time to page through her personal site. If you find the right page on her site, you'll discover that, along with all of her awesome paintings, she has also done design for MoMA. Among her creations are a series of Sky Umbrellas, one of which I owned until a huge rainstorm with powerful winds destroyed it. Also, her Strunk & White illustrations are great. I'm especially fond of the one labelled "His first thought on getting out of bed — if he had any thought at all — was to get back in again" on this page.
