Do you suppose this guy has had a hard time with his computer lately? He’s probably switched to a MAC by now.

WESC and artist Juse have teamed up to promote WESC’s current seasons theme “Lets’s get Physical”, with some skateboard wheel and axel 1lbs hand weights. Pretty odd, I know, but they look pretty cool. By the way, WESC’s website is pretty awesome.

Just in time for Valentines Day, kind of. I guess if you’ve waited this long to get your girlfriend/boyfriend a Valentines Day gift. You’re screwed! Well, maybe next Valentines Day you can get Michael Leavitt to make an action figure of you and your spouse. Michael’s lives in Seattle and makes one-off action characters of artists, musicians, entertainers, and lately he’s been pushing the custom figure angle a lot more. He’s started doing custom wedding cake toppers, figures of people of themselves. If you’re getting married, then you have to get Michael to do a custom wedding cake topper for you. It’s a lot more personalized than the $9.99 generic cake toppers that you get at the craft store. Anyway, you can check out some of his work below ( love the Mary Kay Letourneau) and through the following links.

Here’s how he makes them

I guess their has been a recent underground art movement called “secret Wall Tattooing“. Artist have been going to Hotels and removing the pictures on the wall and then painting their own picture on that spot and then putting the Hotel picture back on the wall. So, the next you stay in a Hotel make sure you check behind the picture, you never know what you might find. Check out secretwalltattoos.com for more info.
