Speaking of Size



Here's a series of fun artsy things done by a person who is apparently French because the website is either in French or I have taken ecstasy. It's a weird side effect, I know but....Je ne donne pas une merde.

Check out the rest here

Creepiness, Now in 3D


Chinese artist Xia Xiaowan and Canadian David Spriggs have created this series of rather disturbing (even for a Lady Gaga generation) pieces of art on a series of clear glass planes. You can walk around them, be creeped out from the left, front and right!


Check out more of the photos of my mother odd art here.

Vintage Star Wars Travel Posters



Steve Thomas is a person. A person who does arty type things. A person who does arty type things that involve both retro stylization and Star Wars. A hero, in short.

Check out the rest of the neato burrito things of awesome nature here.

Effing Brilliant: Music Note Art



This is a pretty bad-ass piece done by some skilled person taking a sheet of music and integrating their artwork into the structure of the notes.

I've totally done that before. I just didn't brag about it like they did.

Check out the awesomeness here.

Raptorine



If only wolverine was a raptor and not a sexy hairy Australian. I mean that would be abysmal cool, right?

The Illustrated Telephone



I, for one, know that the first time I heard Gaga's Telephone, that I needed a two color 50's style animated textbook to go along with it. THANKFULLY Andrew Kolb heard my prayers and provided this rather badass one.  Check out the full awesomeness here.

Tuscan Raider Booty: Star Wars Pinups



So is it homoerotic to take predominately male characters and turn them into sexy girls? If so I'm pasting my face all over some random porn chick pics and spreading them about the interwebs.

Ohh boooyyyss.

Check out the rest of the awesome approximately here.

Colored Pencil Scupltures - Neato



Artist Jennifer Maestre creates these ornate sculptures out of colored pencils. Children of the world have less colored pencils to work with. Visionary or Villain? Next on Sick Sad World.

No, they're totally awesome. Check out some more here.

Yes, I'm aware it takes you to Women's Day. As a gay man who prefers night, I'm not sure how I ended up on there either.

Well now thanks to the power of the interwebs, you have inspiration. Follow the golden tint link to see some rather interesting pieces done out of used ink cartridges. Off now, on your boat. Over here.

Oklahomans Are Upset At Jesus'....Stomach?


This ten-foot tall crucifix in a Catholic church in Oklahoma seems to be causing quite the stir (I can't possibly imagine why). Many are pointing out the obvious, that Jesus looks like he is super, very excited to die for our sins...and that he has such a giant dong. The church faculty, however, is saying that the area in question is indeed just the Lord and Savior's super ripped abs.

Several people have left the church over the piece, while others seem to be completely ok with the seemingly bonerific death scene. The artist (bless her heart) apparently has not left a comment on the matter.

Yeah, She's Cool: Alexa Meade


This is a lady. Like, this is not a painting of a lady-like thing a ma doodle. This is a lady. Standing there, in her, lady...ness.





Artist Alexa Meade paints the subjects of her work (she's an installation artist) to look like part of a two-dimensional piece. I now officially want to go to DC even more now, just to try to get a peek of her insane awesomeness.

Check out some more pictures and info here.

I Have Cool Friends



So, one of my online best buds decided to do a series of portraits of all his facebook friends. I, being both an Aa name and naturally awesome, was at the top of the list. I literally giggled with delight at how cute he made me.  :: giggles in delight again ::

Thanks B, you're just kind of neat.

Star Wars Recruitment Posters


So there's a pretty randomly awesome series of recruitment posters for what I'm assuming is the Empire, although some of them seem to be looking for Victoria's Secret employees. Regardless, I found them amusing in my dorky way. Check them all out here.

BAFTA > Oscars

Random: Picasso Doing Light-Graffiti



Yeah, he did that too.  He also boarded a UFO and recorded "Thriller" years before Jackson did. Your move Monet, oh no, you're dead.

Check out some more of the shots here.

This Art Is Made From FLIES! Arhrhhh!

 

I'm not really sure who did this, how they killed the flies sans smushing or why. The only thing that really matters I suppose is that there's a person taping flies to paper and drawing around them. Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Jesus is back.

Blog World: Missed Connections



Artist Sophie Blackall, from New York, scours the Missed Connections section of Craigslist and creates these brilliant illustrations capturing the odd, sometimes desperate, sometimes hilarious aspects of the site.

I look at these a lot with my eyes and find them interesting with my brain.
