"Ying Yang Parrots"

Hard edges have always inspired me and I like the colors that this one uses. 

Yiting Cheng

I found this video, which shows Cheng's use of normal items, to hide valuables.  While I am not a fan of every item, there are a few cool ones in here.

I tried embedding the video, but it didn't seem to work so there is the link.

Just thought this was wild

I was on stumble upon and found this wedding invitation.  As I read this wedding invitation it seemed as though there's a possibility that the woman was a VCU student.  As I continued to read, the wedding itself took place back home right by my school in wilmington de.  Crazy.

Tom Otterness

I sure wish I had a playground like this when I was a kid.  Tom made many different figure statues, one of which sits back home at the Delaware Art Museum.  There is a really cool website all about him that you should check out.http://www.tomostudio.com/index.html

Why draw with pencils?

Jennifer Maestre's "Pelt"

Jennifer uses hundreds of Loew-Cornell colored pencils to create intriguing spikey looking forms.
I thought it was interesting to use materials in such an opposite manner.  She has many others wich all display a sense of movement.  enjoy.

Need a new couch?

Check out this couch, it will twist and turn to any sweet position you want it to.  Cool design with some awesome colors.

A different way to use paper

Andreas Kocks- Paperwork
A very intriguing way of layering paper to create a relief.

A woman from the inside out

This is a fun watch.  Its kind of playing with the idea of lean to fat, starting with the skeleton and slowly adding the meat and features.

Black and White
Franz Kline

This piece intrigued me from a distance.  From far away you could interpret many images from this painting. Kline was an expressionist painter from Pennsylvania and created many different pieces until his death in 1962.  At a closer look you can see that this painting is layered with other strips of canvas/paper.  I love when a piece is not what it seems, and this caught my attention in that way.
