A spring day

It's not 85 degrees and sunny today, but if it were . . .

Spongebob Art!

While looking at humorous pictures and photos on Picture is Unrelated, I came across this painting, Death of  Sponge Bob from Erik Alos:
So creepy, so good. I demand more artists make terrifying Spongebob Squarepants art! The Renaissance had biblical stories and Greco-Roman mythology. The 21st Century has Spongebob Squarepants and Matt Groening.  Erik also has painting of a rubber ducky in the La Brea tar pits with a mastadon. It makes me yearn for filthy, filthy Los Angeles.

One Art Please


A few weeks back I came across an online gallery of Futurama inspired portraits by MouserSix. They made my day, my week, my month, and possibly even my year. I love fan art, and I think with my next pay check, I'm going to purchase one of this guy's prints. I already have a Homer Simpson as Jesus print, so why not shout to the world (or the handful of people who cross my threshold) that I am indeed a major nerd.

The question is: which one? Classy Fry? Contemplative Zapp Branigan? Or Dr. Zoidberg trying to buy a priceless work of art with a $300 bill? Decisions, decisions.

My biggest regret in life is not becoming a contortionist

Reading Oddee's article on contortionists fills me with a joy and yearning that cramming one's body into a small box shouldn't.

Zlata might be my new hero. Or the 400-lb contortionist in a nylon gold unitard.
