I have decided to write a recurring segment about tiny houses, houseboats and treehouses.
I have collected some wonderful pictures of houseboats so far: more to come.

Etsy Treasury: Baaaaa....
A super huge thanks to Etsy user Nelago14, who included my zombie lamb figurine in her sheep-themed treasury collection (bottom row, left)! You can read the treasury comments, as well as browse other treasury collections by clicking here. My zombies haven't seen much action on Etsy, other than gracing a few lovely users' favorites list. My store can be found here. It is still under construction, as you will see if you pay a visit. Thanks for the look!

Odds, ends and some bits.
Some random images (and a video) for you today. These are things I found floating around that caught my eye.
INFRARED PHOTOGRAPHY BY RICHARD MOSSE
Using Aerochrome infrared color film, Mosse saturates his images of the civil war torn Republic of Congo with fantastical beauty. The striking contrast between the image subjects and the illusory colors is at the same time nightmarish and ephemeral.

Introducing: Anna Wallis
Good morning friends,
I wanted to preface today's post by saying that although Anna is one of my oldest and dearest friends, my decision to featuring her work is based on her talent, creativity and the beauty of her work. Since childhood, art and creativity has been a large part of her identity. Following high school, Anna Wallis studied at Cornish College of the arts in Seattle, WA. As a current resident of Spokane, WA, Anna was a participant in Terrain 2010, Spokane's premier juried art event that was visited by 4,800 of the region's art lovers.
Cheers, Anna!

Illustrations that decorate covers and the lucky pages in between.
Hello all,
Missed you...
I've been a bad little blogger as of late. A bit of a ghost, really. However, my silly ailments are under control and I am ready to share thoughts on numerous random subjects!
"I'm just going to keep moving ahead. Towards that red sun."
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD (2003)
Inio Asano
Josef Vyleťal (1940-1989)
This eerie beauty is not actually a book illustration, it is instead a poster for the 1966 film Don Gabriel. Mr. Vylet'al, a Czech artist, practiced multiple areas of discipline within the arts, including illustration, design, art direction for both theatre and film.
