Great style from this Brooklyn based illustrator. These are two of six pieces that ran as covers, each showing why Boston is great in the winter.

paintdrop sculptures
August 31st, 2009

some amazing artwork by canadian born artist chris dorosz.

“Out of material discovery I began to regard the primacy of the paint drop, a form that takes shape not from a brush or any human-made implement or gesture, but purely from its own viscosity and the air it falls through, as analogous to the building blocks that make up the human body (DNA) or even its mimetic representation (the pixel).”

check out the rest of his paintdrop sculptures here, and his portfolio here.

Deus Ex Machina

Incredible bike company from Australia. Their style is a throwback to 40’s custom bike culture, designing bare bones motorcycles as well as fixed gear bicycles. Wicked brand, huge fan of the hand-done feel. Have a look at their site here.
