Still loving all these amazing, hand-cut collages by our Issue Two artist Nick Paliughi.
Our Issue Two artist, Los Angeles based Melissa Manfull, has some amazing new work up on her website and we wanted to share it. We were so happy to include a few of her meticulous, architectural drawings in our magazine over a year ago, and it seems like her work is only getting better.
Have you ever wondered where you can get a hard copy of our magazine? Well, we have just started distributing with Ubiquity Publishing out of Brooklyn, and check out this list! Here are all the places you can get Fine Line, when it’s in stock of course.
We also sell magazines on our website and will ship them anywhere! www.finelinemag.com

Incredible new work from our Issue Two artist, Maine based painter Justin Richel. These amazingly detailed gauche paintings are part of an upcoming solo exhibition of Justin’s work titled “Threshold” at Ross+Ross Galerie in Stuttgart, Germany. For those of you who happen to be in Germany, the show runs from June 29th - August 21st, 2012.
Beautiful, dreamy photographs by our Issue Two artist Margaret Durow.
Love these still. We featured the work of Toronto based photographer Ozant Kamaci in our second issue and we were excited to see his work pop up on Tumblr this week.

Where are you from originally? Does your nationality play a role in your work?
I have lived in Mexico for a great part of my life, but living abroad for 6 years influenced my work. Photography was a way for me to find a place to belong.
Do you have a day-job outside of your art practice? If so, what is?
I am lucky enough to have a job that I adore as a freelance photo-retoucher. Doing this allows me to wake up late and stay in my pajamas, and I hope to keep doing this for as long as I can :)
