Check out these amazing sculptures made by French artist Edouard Martinet! He uses random, found objects like car parts, clocks, typewriters to make these one-of-a-kind works of art.  So, he constructs each piece like a watchmaker by connecting pieces by screws. These are definitely conversation pieces in the home or office. My fave …

  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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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. …

One day, Do Ho Suh decided to make fabric versions of household appliances and things because that’s what every person wants to see sometime in their life. (not really) I’m sure a lot of work and thought went into making a tea cozy for a toilet, but do we really need one? …

Check out the amazing artwork of Californian Noir Nouar! It’s vintage-style, kitschiness, and tongue-in-cheek humor is definitely what I admire most about her work. Check out some of her other works here. I need to put some these around the house! photos: Nouar

  Oh that Karl… he’s gotten all artsy fartsy on us. Which is ok, because I actually like this collection. I don’t love love love it, but I like it. The paint swatches are what really have me excited. The thyroid tumor pearl necklaces are also rad in my book. …
