These Body of Water illustrations by Tamsyn Mystkowski made me giggle.

Reverse Of Volume
In this stunning installation, reverse of volume RG, Yasuaki Onishi uses the simplest materials — plastic sheeting and black hot glue — to create a monumental, mountainous form that appears to float inside of Rice University Art Gallery.
(Thank you Mark and Angela)
More / Less
Sometimes you feel like you should be doing more. Other times you feel like the right thing to do is less. This letterpress print, by Jason Polan, helps once you decide which one to strive for.
Love Yourself
“Love Yourself” art print. Illustration by Lim Heng Swee. All kinds of wonderful.
Damien Rudd
For the Objects of Intimacy project Damien Rudd photographed 5 pillows from 5 different people. Each pillow is at a different stage of transformation relative to its age and frequency of use. Fascinating and disturbing at the same time.
(Thank you for this find, ItsNiceThat!)
Drawing Apparatus
This turntable driven Drawing Apparatus is quite fascinating.

100 days of White
Brand Spirit is a project after my own heart: Every day for 100 days, Andrew Miller will paint one branded object white, removing all visual branding, reducing the object to its purest form. Each object may be purchased for less than $10.
YES! says the white-obsessed swissmiss!

Tim Noble and Sue Webster
“One man’s rubbish is another man’s treasure”. There is considerable truth in this statement as London based artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been constructing and assembling sculptures from unconventionally found objects into transformative art:

Clouds
Amsterdam-based Berndnaut Smilde creates cloud creations with a combination of smoke, moisture, and dramatic lighting. Absolutely stunning, thinks the cloud-obsessed me.
Will Of Power
Don’t ask why, but I can totally relate to this art piece called Will Of Power, by Yoan Capote.

Mondrian Sandwich
This Mondrian inspired Sandwich made me laugh. This might be my new way of sending subliminal art messages to my daughter with her lunches.
(Thank you Brittany)
The Postiche Collection
Earlier today, I opened an envelope that entailed “The Postiche Collection” – a Limited Edition catalogue designed by Hampus Jageland.
I don’t think I have ever come across a more surprising and in some strange way fascinating imagery than this. Men with quilt-beards? It was created by Julian Wolkenstein and Paul Sharp.
I still don’t fully understand it, but consider me intrigued.
Dear Art World…
Dear Art World: William Powhida’s Critique of Everything That’s Wrong with Contemporary Culture. Interesting post over on Brain Pickings.
Growing Bookbow
Whoa! Check out this timelapse of Paul Octavious’ Bookbow Print. So cool! (You can buy the print here)
3D Boy Print by Oliver Jeffers
Oliver Jeffers is one of my all-time favorite children’s books illustrators and I was thrilled when he said yes to a print-collaboration. You can purchase 3D boy in my shop and I am sure it will make a great addition to any kids room, or even an office. What do you think?
Book Shelf
This book shelf by Daniel Eatock made me chuckle.
Jim Denevan on The Anthropologist
In March of 2010, Jim Denevan and his crew created a large scale artwork on the frozen surface of Lake Baikal, Siberia. The spiral of circles, along a fibonacci curve, grow from an origin of 18″ to several miles in diameter.
The project is currently featured on The Anthropologist and is the subject of an upcoming documentary directed by Meredith Danluck.
The Anthropologist is an online space that supports the work of inspiring individuals, brought to you by the people behind Anthropologie. As a company of artists, Anthropologie celebrates artmakers and their work, but also illuminates the complicated, messy and exhilarating process of creation.
Suspended Dandelions
2,000 Suspended Dandelions by Regine Ramseier. Fantastic.
Make Change
Our awesome Make Change Tattly by Ewan Huwa is now available as a print.
Spaces, Etc.
These sculptural objects by New York based designer Ron Gilad are minimal three-dimensional outlines of various familiar shapes. As minimal as they are, they form spaces, rooms, shapes. It’s fascinating how our mind finishes what his artwork has started.
Sensu, an iPad Brush
Here’s a Kickstarter project that made me look: The team behind Sensu is trying to bring a true painting experience to your iPad.
They developed Sensu out of their desire to have an authentic brush to use with our favorite drawing and painting apps on iPhone and iPad. And smart: When closed the Sensu brush reveals a useful rubber stylus tip.
Cool idea, no?
