Lee Jean Young, Fall 2014.

Great advertising by Frontline, seen at a mall in Jakarta.
I’d like to add #30: Stop thinking about it and just do it.
Some well known and not so well known Jeff Wall photographs. It’s so important to show more than just the popular works-kind of like listening to the whole album versus listening to only the single. There is so much more to a photographer than just a few good photographs.
One of the top trending tattoos of 2013: watercolor paintings. These are so incredibly and beautifully done-standing ovation the artists that produce them. Wonder what’s next for 2014.
Ben Nunery and his daughter, Olivia, recreate the wedding photos of her father and deceased mother, Ali. There’s not a lot I can say about them-I might start crying.
Check out the Buzzfeed article and see the photographer’s (Ali’s sister) blog. Maybe have some tissues on hand.
I love photography and I love outer space, and I love photographer Lincoln Harrison's Nightscapes portfolio.
View the Milky Way like you’ve never seen it before, right here.
I had the pleasure of visiting the KAWS exhibit at the Mary Boone Gallery, located in the heart of Chelsea, NY. The exhibit features three wooden statues, each over eighteen tall and nearly reaching the ceiling of the gallery. One piece, titled Along The Way, features two figures paired together, while the third piece, standing alone, is titled At This Time. The central motif of the exhibit revolves around loss, grief, and consolation.
You can see more images, as well as read the press release, at Mary Boone Gallery. KAWS currently has another exhibit at the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts.
Make sure you check them out (if you have the opportunity to visit both New York and Pennsylvania)!

Check out these rad skateboards, designed by Chicago based artist Lou Medel. Each board is hand designed using paint and/or burnt wood.
See more of his boards and other works (which are equally as cool) at LouMedel.com

Look at these awesome collage-style portraits by Chilean artist Alvaro Tapia Hidalgo. He mixes water color with digital effects to produce these layered pieces. The illustrations range from portraits to musicians to anatomy to animals.
Check out the rest of his diverse portfolio at AlvaroTapia.com.
Currently, he’s working on a collaborative project called ’Angry People’, in which he recreates portraits of, yes you guessed it, angry people. You can submit your photo and he’ll send you his colorful interpretation.
Enjoy!

How rad are these?
Sunglasses made from 100% recycled skateboard pieces. There’s even an iPhone 5 case. These awesome accessories were first created by Diamond Supply Co in 2012 and you can snag a pair at Zumiez.

“Soo Sunny Parks installation Unwoven Light animates Rice Gallerys expansive space, transforming it into a shimmering world of light, shadow, and brilliant color. Suspended from the walls and ceiling, thirty-seven individually sculpted units are arranged as a graceful, twisting flow of abstract form.”
