Adam Wallacavage

.."Ski Lodge - Under Water - Vampire - Theme"..

Browsing the magic of the internet this morning I landed on Adam Wallacavage and this is why I waste so much time on the computer when I could be doing something productive, there's so many things to find out and get inspired about. 

Hes made these incredible Chandeliers, octopus legs weaving and winding in between each other making really interesting shapes.

I don't even want to gander at how much one of these would cost, the idea makes so much sense though when you think about chandelier shapes and the main silhouette of an octopus.

"If I think to much, it doesn't  work"

I love this quote I think Herman Hesse used to say this aswell.

He also collaborates with other artists in a company called 'Curio' making amazing wall paper design
which is worth a look at

Alfred Kubin

..Weird and  Wonderful..

Recently visited Nottingham Contemporary Art Gallery which is holding an exhibition of Franais Richard and Alfred Kubin. 

Its been a while since I've been so excited about an artist, his dark surreal pieces are an eye into your nightmares.

The Like

..Make Up, Hair.. Leading me too..

Quite a while ago on a blog or some kind, one of my usual's I found a snap of two girls too which I loved the make up on one of them looking through things I landed on a band called 'The Like' which I know nothing about yet so I can't fill anyone with knowledge on them but the girl in that picture with the fantastic make up was Laena Geronimo, the bassist and in the image above the one to the left! On your right would be the front woman also I very cool lady Annie Monroe.

Arto Saari

..'Hello my names Arto Saari and yours isn't'..

Arto Saari one of my favourtie men and a true talent. Pro skateboarder turned photographer, originally comes from Finland and selected 2001 skater of the year by thrasher magazine and I'm sure many more iconic titles.. he started becoming serious about photography in 1990.

Really good video of him talking about his work. Defiantly watch if your a fan of him I couldn't get the video to appear so you'll have to click on the link.
