My all time favorite illustrator, Mindflyer’s contribution to Kult magazine. Singapore’s design scene is exciting!

How colourful are these illustrations from Matt Lyon!

Yup. :)

Just bunches of roses. Thanks!

I have had Critter Crunch for the longest time on the iPhone, and it has always been my one favourite game, enticing me with its engaging music and oh so adorable game play. Seeing Boing Boing’s article of the up and coming Critter Crunch on PS3 makes me drool! It is exactly the attention to detail and its obsessive environment crafting that pushes the game beyond mere Teteris status. See more for yourself at this exhaustive article at BoingBoing.

Luv! Luv! Luv! Marc Johns.

Travis Louie has some of the most strange paintings that are so full of depth. Each portrait comes with its own back story, that reads a little like Roald Dahl so go read them all!

Wilham Staehle is a genius and Silhouette Masterpiece Theatre is a distilled version of that brilliance. Go see more for yourself, or jump for some of my favs.

“Mundo Nuevo (1966–1971, Spanish for “the New World”) was an influential Spanish-language periodical, being a monthly revista de cultura (literary magazine) dedicated to new Latin American literature. Sponsored by the Ford Foundation, it was founded in 1966 by Emir Rodríguez Monegal in Paris, France, and distributed worldwide. Monegal edited it until 1968 and resigned after a smear campaign related to a CIA scandal. The magazine stopped in 1971 after 58 issues.”
