]]> One person’s trash is another person’s treasure. This has never seemed as true as when we discovered Alexandra Dillon’s art. This LA-based surrealist takes the most ordinary, used up paintbrushes and similar objects and paints tiny characters on them in the most charming way.

“My characters come to me the way [they do to] novelists,” she revealed. “They show up and tell me who they are. I never quite know who will show up.”

“I work on each piece over the course of several days,” Dillon continued. “They often change and grow into themselves more fully. When I have found the emotion and personality of a character, I know I’m finished.”
