La Vie Bohème

...de l'artiste. I know every girl thinks that they have the most amazing boyfriend on the planet, but I actually do. Sorry ladies. I'm not going to bore you with all of the sweet things he does, but you should definitely check out some of his artwork. 





He also wrote and did the artwork for a children's book that was picked up by Penguin Publishing, titled
 "Monster Fred Who Lost His Bed"


Like I said, amazing.

Make sure you go get the book when it comes out!!!!

Brainwashed: Don't Believe The Hype

Next week, we will see the first exhibition at Britain's Opera Gallery, of the street artist, Mr. Brainwash. But is he really a street artist? It's hard to call someone who samples the art of other artists, an artist himself. Eh...but who am I to say anything? I'm no artist and I'm certainly no art buff either, but when I mentioned Mr. Brainwash to my boyfriend, who is an artist of many sorts, he gave me an earful without pausing to hear what I had to say.
Those of you who have seen Banksy's "Exit Through the Gift Shop," are familiar with Thierry Guetta aka Mr. Brainwash. So, in this documentary, Thierry decides to film and document his new found passion for street artists and ends up getting the camera turned on him in the end. After years of searching for the notorious street artist, Banksy, he is later introduced and finally convinced by the artist himself, to become an artist. So that's exactly what he does. Kind of. He invests all of his money in putting on his first art show in Los Angeles, and with the help of Banksy he becomes a success. I honestly think this is one big elaborate prank. His personality is over the top and ridiculous, and I don't know about everyone else, but I'm over all of the Warhol rip-offs and references.

So the bottom line is, please do not support this fuckery. If I'm not allowed to like him, then neither are you.

Lindsay Lohan for Philipp Plein's Spring/Summer 2012

Nothing can hold this bitch down. Not jail. Not house arrest. And certainly no amount of public humiliation is going to phase LiLo. Yesterday, the actress/model was seen in Como, Italy hard at work, posing for a photo shoot for German Fashion House, Philipp Plein's Spring/Summer 2012 Collection. 




She might be too busy being a hot ass mess to finish her community service, but I'm excited to see the results of this ad campaign. We'll see how hard she worked soon enough.

Nicki Minaj gives a new meaning to the term 'Fridging'

I love Nicki Minaj, but this trend that she's trying to start is not one that I can fall victim to. This past Tuesday she tweeted a pic that was taken of her from a recent photoshoot for Glamour Magazine: 


After some interesting responses, she then encouraged her followers to take their own 'Fridging' pics and retweet them. 
Here are some of the idiots and their pics:





And this is what would happen if I attempted this fuckery:

Graffiti Taxonomy


So while thinking of my boo/other half, I stumbled upon this fantastical website with this Graffiti Alphabet break down.





 Evan Roth has been breaking down the Graffiti Alphabet for years. Graffiti Taxonomy presents isolated letters from various graffiti tags, reproduced in similar scales and at close proximity. The intent of these studies is to show the diversity of styles as expressed in a single character. In these photographs, the ‘S' is reproduced from photographs of tags taken in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, while the 'A' is reproduced from tags from Central Park North to 125th St. in Harlem. 
This project is still in progress.
