Carl Turner AKA Biscuitboy

Here is another artist claiming “lowbrow” sculpture and artwork. Carl Turner AKA Biscuitboy rolls with Dr. Seuss as a major inspiration; and perhaps a tinge of Warner Brothers and Disney go into his wildlife sculptures. Some of the descriptions Turner gives for each of his creations are worth as much as the visual impact of the “trophies.”

In my mailbox today I found this link waiting for posting. With Dana’s limitations, I am left choosing the images from the link. Forgive me for not saying much more–I can’t compete with her wit and discerning eye. Only convey something of the wonderful finds Dana wishes to share.

The needles felted sculptures by artist Kiyoshi Mino are as interesting as his personal story. Please enjoy these creatures, and read more on his website.

Perhaps a bit late to post these for gift ideas, but your Valentine deserves to be shown your heart all the time, not just on February 14th.

CG illustrator Macoto Murayama renders flowers by highlighting their geometric and mechanical structure. The results are quite stunning.

Bubbletree Tents

Posted in architecture, nature with tags , on April 15, 2012 by shewalkssoftly

The moment I laid eyes on these transparent bubble tents, my mind filled with dreams of spending evenings in the wilderness happily curled up in one of them.

Above all else, I would love to put a bed and tons of comfy pillows and blankets in this tent and stay in there through fierce thunderstorms.
