Great Hera!

Wonder Woman Strikes A Pose On This Fake Justice Magazine Cover

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:21 pm, April 8th, 2013

Artist Stanley Lau, aka artgerm, shows how a superheroine can look sexy and strong at the same time without having to show both her breasts and butt at the same time. I’d buy this.

This Artist Carved Crayons Into An Alphabet Of Animals

by Jill Pantozzi | 3:30 pm, April 5th, 2013

It would be an understatement to say artist Diem Chau is great at carving objects but well, she is. Her new A-Z set created letters and creatures out of mere crayons (also check out her blog for pencil carvings) and is being displayed at the Packer Schopf Gallery in Chicago this weekend. You’ll never look at your Crayola set the same way again…

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:32 pm, March 30th, 2013

I stumbled upon the work of Stu MacKay after watching a brief documentary on the people and products of Greenwich Market in the UK. MacKay took the iconic Daleks from Doctor Who, designed by Ray Cusick, and combined them with landmarks and other British iconography. We thought the effect was pretty cool so we reached out to him for these images.

Woman Turns Gross Petri Dishes Into Beautiful Abstract Art

by Jill Pantozzi | 3:33 pm, March 5th, 2013

Amazing things happen in petri dishes, I know, but even the name sounds gross to me (Sorry, Julius). But artist Klari Reis made me look at them in a different light. “The Daily Dish 2013” is another go at her project from back in 2009, one new work of art a day. According to Science Friday, “Reis works under controlled temperature and humidity conditions, painting forms inspired by microbiology onto a lab bench staple…[her] paint is actually a two-part epoxy polymer, colored with industrial dyes.” They say she got the inspiration for the project 10 years ago when diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. While hospitalized, she was allowed to look at her own cells through a microscope. Each petri takes a few weeks to create, and get this, when she reveals her work in installations, she calls it “Hypochondria.” Take a look at just a fraction of the artistry she’s created so far this year.

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:30 pm, January 12th, 2013

When I spotted Australian artist Gibson Radsavanh’s work on DeviantArt, I was immediately swept away to an usual place that reminded me of Wonderland. Where some inhabitants were sweet, some sinister, and others sinister disguised as sweet. Here’s a sampling of Radsavanh’s unique creations with a few well-known pop-culture characters skewed to his particular stylings mixed in. Beware, some creepiness lies ahead…

by Jill Pantozzi | 10:17 am, December 20th, 2012

Artist Isabel Talsma has a way with silhouettes but something special happens when two figures from a particular story are squared against each other. Some are enemies, some friends, while some love each other a great deal. See who else she’s paired up.
