The Saturated Life

A lil recommendation from the bomb site that is my bookmarks. The Saturated Life is a podcast featuring some of my favourite visual Artists. I've been trashing the hell out of this for the last few months and can't get enough. It does have quite a niche, painting, pharmaceuticals and their natural bed fellows, spiritualism, (and thankfully) hard work, but it fills it nicely. I always leave imagining all the other Artist I'd like to hear speak and wait with bare knuckles till the next up-date. Have a look and tell me what you think. Better yet, if you know of any other good art podcasts, please let me know. I'm dosing up to ease my documentary come down. Click on the pic to be whisked away.

synesthesiagarden.com

Just a heads up. Synesthesia garden is a "Weird art and style" blog I've just sorta stumbled across a couple of months ago. I'm dig'n it! Lost of great Photographers, Drawing Artists, Architecture and bizarre couture.

I loved this work by Elizaveta Porodina and the following dreamy work by Nicholas Alan Cope and Dustin Edward Arnold. 

 

Elizaveta Porodina

Soak up some of this stuff and keep checking back. It's our mission to keep blogs like this alive! Enjoy.

Nicholas Alan Cope and Dustin Edward Arnold.

Look but please don't touch

I've been meaning to post this for a while but I've been traveling a bit and the internet is sparse in China.

Cthulhu idol

The mighty Propnomicon posted this picture of a piece he'd made a while back. I am partially taken with the stone texture although the sculpting work is very good as well. 

I've not worked much with polymer clay much and am in the process of remedying this at the moment. I love using new materials and this has been on my do-to list for years, it's creations like this one that have attracted me. Click the photo and check the comments to find out a little about it's creation or better yet, get some of this stuff under your finger nails!

I only just heard about this. Really interesting stuff. It seems the suspicion lays with the usual suspects, I think they do anyway but none the less, truly cool and art no-doubt in many forms. Shit like this makes me wish I was cleaver.

Twice daily with food.

If you are anything like me I'm sure you spend hours grazing links and art works online. I have at least a dozen sites I visit everyday for the run-down. Most of which are high-end clothing houses but it aren't easy looking this good.

Lioncorn

I wanted to share some of the stuff I check out because some of these sites, Artists, Writers and Admins have given so much pleasure and knowledge to me and my fellow readers it's the least I could do. So in no particular order, here is one. Lioncorn is great. It's an Art, culture blog. Always something interesting.

Propnomicon

Propnomicon is a prop focused site leaning strongly towards the Lovecraft mythos. Up-dated with incredible regularity, propnomicon is an all ways interesting stop off. It also places great focus to learning, ideas and technique.         

Replica prop forum

The Replica prop forum is the largest prop builders forum. It is an amazing database of knowledge thanks to the incredibly talented members and a great community.

Beinart

From the website: "The beinArt Collective was formed to increase public awareness of strange figurative art, in galleries, online and in print."  Lots of incredible work and Artists. 

 

Colossal

 

Colossal is an Art and design blog. Always interesting and inspiring stuff. 

So, there you go. Have a look at these if you get a chance. I'm sure you'll find them handy. And to all the content providers out there hacking away, Thank you.

 

Blogs and linking to blogs n stuff.

Those of you who know me know my computer and web skills have the finesse of a toddler mashing their soggy bread into a laptop keyboard but I try. I found out how to add links to this page. They are just down the right hand side titled, Links. I know, I toiled with the title for hours. There you'll find many an interesting artists, a couple of artifact and prop builders and a few interesting art blogs I follow. I've added some of these as a point of reference and others because of the quality of the work but all make interesting reading.
