Call to Submit: 2026 Booooooom Illustration Awards
Painting

“Quiet Moons Surrounding Domesticity” by Artist Brad Stumpf

A series of still life paintings by artist Brad Stumpf. Like miniature stage sets, the images are based on small-scale arrangements of handmade objects organized atop Stumpf’s bedside table:

“The objects are arranged to depict lust, love, and expectation. The handmade objects within the paintings consist of paper birds, butterflies, drawings, and notes that add an additional layer of encapsulated thought.”

Each week our members share their projects with us and we highlight our favs as Editors’ Picks. If you want to share your own work with us, you can learn more about becoming a member.
