ART AND MUSIC

What you wear. You drive. Sit and sleep on. Write with, scroll your finger on, and countless other items all started with a creative thought, and teams of creative people brought them into existence.

Next time you're in your car, putting on clothes, writing your name with a pen or using your cellphone or other device. Take a closer look and picture Artists designing these things.

What would the world look like without Artists?

Sit in your house or your car without any music. How do you feel? Then, turn the music on. How do you feel?

What would the world look like without music?

IG PAGE YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT

This account is mostly for abstract photography of human shapes. What it does so impressively is its use of colors and contrasts to create optical illusions and surreal scenes. This account is special because it has a lot to show you, but it's not going to hold your hand to bring you there. -escuchela

Mindy Meinders (@mindymeinders) is working on her first etching in the Caye (@ohcaye) & Jeff (@lemook) studio @thefitchbuilding!

The Fitch Studio Building is the oldest continuing studio home for artists in Des Moines, Iowa.

Built in 1917 as the manufacturing plant for the FW Fitch Co., it has also housed a janitorial services warehouse.

Since the early 1990s, the upper floors have been studios for artists and independent small businesses. Many of Des Moines’ most prominent artists have had studios in the Fitch at some point in their careers.

IOWA ARTIST Andrew Clarridge Ever since he could

IOWA ARTIST

Andrew Clarridge

Ever since he could remember he always wanted to be an artist, he didn't think he ever truly wanted to be anything else.

Andrew's (Andy) work is a personal reflection of experiences that are common within all of us and is an attempt at understanding the human condition. He is often attracted to and intrigued by cultures that are/or have been ravaged by the modern industrial man.

Andy is attracted to these seeming lost ways of living, and attempts to reflect its influence upon him in his work. This type of art can be described as primitivism, but he doesn't want to define one artistic ideology, and he allows himself to be as open-minded as possible so that he may continue his artistic growth.
