Je suis artiste!

This is what happens when I'm bored at work:


Obviously it's FOOD that I'm obsessed with drawing! Duuhhhhh.

Oh, I also think it's worth mentioning that I tend to make these when I'm chillin' with Aunt Flo.

Shred the Gnarrr!

I'm in the process of shredding the shit outta this baby:


I think my friends at IS MENTAL would be very proud!

Oh and the camera on my cell phone is loose and let's in dirt and dust, thus all the black spots.

I Sweat Freja Beha's Tattoos HARD



I really, really do. I want that gun. And her face.

If I Had a Heart

Swedish singer, Karin Elisabeth Dreijer Andersson, who you probably know as the lead singer for The Knife is releasing an album for her solo project called Fever Ray in March. It has been released digitally, for your listening pleasure.



That's the music video for the song "If I Had a Heart." I suggest watching it in a dark room with the volume of your speakers turned way up. It's spooky, dark, Swedish, and above all, beautiful.

This is quite the (welcome) departure from The Knife's sound. I really need to go to Sweden.

It's THE APPLE!

I'm very very very very very excited about the below pic, snapped by my friend and fellow Mets fanatic, D Sherm.


Baseball season can't come soon enough!

With my naked eye I saw all of the falling rain...



And it feels all right.

Performance 1: Tehching Hsieh

Tehching Hsieh's One Year Performance: 1978-1979 is currently on view at MoMA:



He locked himself in this cell in his Hudson Street apartment for one full year. A friend brought him food and took a photo of him on a daily basis. He was not allowed to communicate with anyone while he was there, including his visiting friend.

The photos and cell are on display.

WTF

I like Scarlett Johansson and thinks she's pretty banging but WHAT THE FUCK is this tattoo?


It's okay, Scarlett. I still think you're hot. But, really?!

Girl Crush: Emily Haines

Emily Haines is the leading lady of Toronto-based bands Broken Social Scene and Metric, and she recently put out a solo album called Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton, but this is not about the music. It's about the clothes.


I have a majorly obsessive crush on that outfit. It's perfect. I want it and I want to rock it, but I'd probably wear heels instead of those wedges because I take cabs everywhere that's not work and don't perform (except for nights alone in my bedroom or when I play Guitar Hero at weird hours like waking up at 8am on a Saturday morning, but that's a different story altogether...).
