these are so sweet and charming, although those all are a really simple sketches, but somehow those are stunning and bring kinda nostalgia feeling when i look at them :) love it <3

this made me smile. it is so difficult to draw like a child when one is no longer a child and has had years of formal education, and i am impressed with mia’s ability to channel that honesty, simplicity, and innocence. i love the girl holding the cat, i just love her.

I am a huge fan of Mia’s work, her style is wonderfully unique and I think she displays a natural playfulness that many artists wish they possessed.

i don’t agree with what other people are saying about it being “not quite art” or “ugly” or anything. i think her “Playgroup” drawing on her website is definitely extraordinary. but i do feel like the side profile faces with blobby hairdo’s seem influenced by margaret kilgallen… which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Hmm… I know Margaret’s work and don’t see the connection.

As far as comments on this post go, I think there’s been a lot of negativity about Mia’s work already. So if you don’t have a new insight into her work, let’s leave it be.

I always welcome any kind of feedback at this blog but when it starts to get repetitive in a negative way, it seems a little like ganging up. I am so thankful for the artists who share these personal pages, I don’t want them to regret it.

Well, these are very pleasant with some nice modulations of color and negative space but otherwise completely unextraordinary. The sheet with the artist’s name recapitulated in rainbows of color say it all, doesn’t it?

I like this website a lot, but wonder, now, when and if we shall see the notebooks of Ms. Tordi, whose sketches are indeed spectacular.
