Oh shoulder pads and Dynasty



I just can't help myself. After seeing this on my friend, Petulant's site, I just had to share. It's the ultimate catfight between Alexis and Krystal from season two ep. 31 "The Baby". True perfomance art. Have to love the back button shirt with the shoulder pads.

One of the most unique and beautiful pieces I've seen in a while. Incredibly well thought out and executed.

Mr. Waits


I'm having a Tom Waits sort of day. If only he would come in the gallery... then all would be complete.

Ahmed Aloudani



A friend with an extremely good eye for art brought this artist to my attention. Even in just the jpgs you can feel the energy and ferocity in the line gestures. I’m very very impressed. Beautiful work! Looking forward to his solo show at Thierry Goldberg Sept. 6 – Oct. 11, 2007. You can also find a much more in-depth introspect into his work on jameswagner.com from where I pilfered these images.

Happy late birthday Mr. Whitfield


So it has come to pass…another year older and another year cuter. Hope you had fun at your party last night.
