My newest favorite time suck is far and away the website The Selby. Photographers capture a unique side to artists of all folds, revealing a great deal about their professions and themselves. Providing at times an intimate look into the lives of these artists, it's the little things that draw me in: strings of paper swans hanging from the ceiling, argyle socks, and stacks upon stacks -- upon stacks! of books. I'm taken in by how normal some of these dwellings are. I'm fascinated looking into their studios; seeing that their desks, tables, and chairs are at once just furniture, given a unique personality by their habits -- much like our own lives are shaped by the same kind of habits.

Accompanying the photographs are hand-written interviews and water-colored portraits. The interviews are quirky and telling, at least, for the ones that are legible.

Some artists are collectors. Some are minimalists. Some are taxidermists. Follow your folly at The Selby.
