Through the Lens
This Week in Photography
Food. It’s what’s for dinner. Unless it’s the subject of colorful still life photography by Tori Dickson. Based in Seattle, Washington, Tori turns her lens onto her edible subjects to create scenes filled with a sense of drama, balanced with her eye for beauty—and a dash of humor, too.

Night Windows
These days, we’re noticing moments we may have normally missed at the speed of our “previous” lives. One moment artists are capturing is life not in their own house but within their neighbors’ houses—particularly as the sun sets and everyone’s house lights are turned on, illuminating scenes for the world to see. I like to think the images below are an affirmation that we’re all still here, waiting to rejoin the world and maybe even a new age of humanity.
Color Story
Ballet Slipper Pink
Ballet slipper pink is a hue that brings to mind an open-armed hug—while also projecting a sense of strength in its exquisite gentleness.
Artist Spotlight
Brandon Bidleman | Portland, Oregon
Bright pop design and bold illustrative lines inhabit the images of Brandon Bidleman. Based out of Portland, Oregon, this designer and illustrator brings a dash of retro sensibility and a healthy dose of humor to his visuals.
