Art News and Artful Absolutes

Sunny and 75 here in the Bay Area. I’m digging it….(it’s why we pay the big bucks to live here)….

Did you all see this little ditty from Anthropologie? Dancing ornaments and things that move on their own when they usually don’t. Please visit. It may quite well knock your socks off. It did mine!

And this from Miso - she’s 21. Yes – really. I’m not lying.

When I was a kid and tried to complete a Rubik’s cube I resorted to peeling the stickers off and moving them into the right place. Move forward a few decades and here we have something better – art made form Rubiks cubes. Meet Jackie at Cube Works.

Anyone interested in a Marathon Manhatten? Please one at a time!

I seriously need to sell more stuff on Etsy so I can BUY more stuff on Etsy. These Tangerine Creamsicle clocks are so cute – and sweet – that it’s making my teeth hurt. From The Uncommon Shop (aptly named don’t you think?)
