Artist : Jen Causey and The Makers Project

I have adored Jen Causey's photographs for a number of years. I have three of her simply breakfast series hanging in my kitchen and never tire of looking at them. And she's done so many more, here's a beauty.

Jen is now onto a new, more ambitious series called The Makers Project in which she photographs Brooklyn based artisans making things. What could be more simple and beautiful than that?

The photos are stunning and offer lovely little peeks into various artists' studios and processes. Here are some of my favorites.
