Surreal Small Things

It's the small things that matter, like finding a headless dinosaur in the gutter...

This mirror is SO LAME!

I L-O-V-E Engrish!  And I really shouldn't since I am an English teacher (or maybe that is why I love it so much?)!

Found in San Francisco's Japantown:

Worth Perusing...

Here are few websites that are worth your perusal:

  • Tink (aka Lacey Jane Roberts) (non-traditional craft with yarn)
  • Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction (Blog, Etc.; not specifically Walter Benjamin)
  • Fecal Face (Blogzine serving the Bay Area Art Community since 2000)
  • And, as always, good ol' Banksy
