Papirmass is a monthly art print subscription. Each month, you’ll get an art print to satisfy your art and cultural curiosity – delivered right to your doorstep. You’ll never have trouble adding a new art print for your collection since Papirmass is the perfect way to discover new and upcoming great artists. It ships worldwide (with free shipping!) from Canada.

The prints are wrapped in custom-printed rigid mailers perfect to protect the print from awful weather. There’s also an invitation to share our personalize print display on social media.

This month’s artist is Anna Kovecses from Mazotos, Cyprus, and we received a card with information about the artwork and a short interview with the artist. Her illustrations are marked by clean minimalist shapes and bright colors.

This one is titled “Still.” I’m not sure what everyone else sees but I see a duck eating from a plate. I love the simple child like feel to this illustration.

Morning Etude features a dog with what I assume is an empty bowl and that’s why it looks like he is crying. I really wish I was creating a child’s area with these colorful pieces.

On the back side are suggestions for displaying my new art and a few questions to help me get the full effect of art appreciation. These two little details really help bring this subscription up a notch. It’s also kind of fun to check out their social media to see what others are inspired to create from the art that is showcased each month.

“I found I could say things with colour and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way – things I had no words for.” ~Georgia O’Keeffe. I am loving this quote because it can be so true, sometimes thoughts and feelings are better shown than stated. Personally, I have never been at a loss for words but I know my artistic friends feel more like O’Keeffe.

Papirmass continues to bring amazing art and new artists to my doorstep month after month. I like the questions to help with my art appreciation. Sometimes, I wish I understood the questions better, but it’s a challenge that I’m enjoying. Papirmass helps bring color to my walls and the conversation flowing.

What did you think of this month’s prints from Papirmass?

    I see a woman in a skirt kneeling in front of a picnic blanket with broccoli on a plate lol. And for the other I see a girl pouring tea 🙂
    I love art that can be seen in many different ways as after you pointed out what you saw I also saw that, especially with the duck!
