Comic Book Heros almost save the day….

  Check out these enhanced, striking photos by  Brazil-based Art Director Butcher Billy. Each of these iconic war photographs have been photoshopped to include a comic book hero somewhere in the scene. Already these photos are very dramatic, but I feel with the comic book heroes, it sort of trivializes the whole …

Cats in History

Philadelphian illustrator Christina Hess is my newest favorite artist because she understands the cats place…. as BOSS. It’s already a wonder why cats don’t run the world, as it is. I mean, Mr. Miggins, Miss Coco, Miss Mimi and Mrs. Minky sure do run our household. They meow and stalk until they …

The Crucifixion of Holly Hobby!

Whoa! Holy Holly Hobbit Hellraiser!! This is Angela Ellsworth’s “Seer Bonnets: A Continuing Offense” on display at the Phoenix Art Museum. Basically, Angela felt compelled to poke a million bazillion pearl-tipped needles through these early American bonnets and see what would happen. Well, this happened and I have to say, they look …

I’m Melting…..

Multi-media artist May Sum sure knows how to make a thing of beauty horrifically mutilated. Seriously, these lipsticks carved into Hollywood legends are all just a carve away from being the after photo of a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon.  If looking like a melted candle in the wind is the look, then …

Designer Logos

First off, it took me a good 5-6 minutes to figure out the people in these drawings are the designers of the fashion house logo. I mean, who knew Louis Vuitton looked like Saddam Hussein and Yves Saint Laurent looked like John Lennon??? Anywho, Dutch artist Mike Frederiqo took the clever idea of …

Ghastly Porcelain

Whoa! These bizarre sculptures are made of the ever delicate porcelain, which gives it an even more creepy layer of strange. What I’m trying to says I’m confused if I should invite the piece over for  tea or go hide under my bed until next week. It’s a toss up. …

Got Milk?

These are fan-friggin-tastic! Photographer Jaroslav Wieczorkiewicz latest work is a 1940’s pin-up calendar with milk as the wardrobe. Using a special camera and lots of fancy computer work, the models are all wearing milk couture for each of the 12 months. I love love love photos like this. I’m not a big …
