I kept seeing the above image in my head and tried to find it online. Despite knowing it was likely one of Brooke Shaden’s, I couldn’t seem to find it until the other day. It must’ve been the luck of the new moon. Brooke Shaden is well-known in her field and has produced some of the most familiar surrealist photographs in the last decade.

The artwork above was created by Blixxa, who I know nothing about. Although I know Blixxa has collaborated with Mrs White in the past, he was active artistically (on Facebook and DeviantArt, at least) between late 2014 and 2020. Some of the artwork has a slightly apocalyptic feel, and most of it is dark. I find this unpretentious image of a

There were two reasons I was drawn to this image. The first was obvious; I liked the picture. The second was more of a kick in the belly from the cosmos, the ones that leave you wondering what the fuck you did to be taunted so mercilessly by life itself. I felt drawn to the title and the concept;

Although there was probably some transference in play, I felt like I'd been thumped when I first saw this picture. This image is harsh on my emotions; does the addition of the title help to nail its impact? I've loved many songs that speak of the impending doom of separation. But, how often

Nothing in this picture suggests anything of solid predictive value; it's a snapshot of where things are at in a moment. At face value, it all looks pretty hopeless. The telephone box is clearly a significant symbol of communication. Although in this case, we have solid indicators that the words,

Now and again, I come across an image slightly different from what usually draws my attention. It will usually represent a once familiar tune that no longer plays, but the memory of the dance it inspired will rattle through my body. Sometimes it creates discomfort, and at other times, joy.

Kathy Grieb Kennedy is one of my top twenty favourite living artists. After spending a good half hour scouting around for images, I remembered I hadn’t paid Kathy’s portfolio a visit in over a month. Kathy’s prolific in her creative output, but there were two in particular that stood out

The Kraken is known to be a destructive force. Krakens are a recurring theme for me and represent an emotional daemon which lurks in the depths of the subconscious. Symbolically speaking, water correlates to the emotional life. As a guardian of what lies on the bottom

There’s an elegance and a sense of grace to this picture. When I relax into the scene, I wonder about the situations this represents. In reality, a person who metaphorically sails the sea speaks of living a life that is likely to involve being swallowed by whirlpools or caught by a

Paul Rumsey is the artist responsible for creating some of the best penis drawings I’ve ever seen. He’s a great artist irrespective of the content, but the ones containing man’s best friend are just brilliant. Blatantly graphic yet surprisingly analytic. He is one of those people I’d like to sit

I know very little of Novus41, other than he’s a Polish forty-three-year-old who goes by the name of Stanley. Well, that’s not quite all. His bio, translated for free with good ol’ Google translate, says that he does physical work during the day, and his art is created in his spare time.

A few days ago, I came across an article which looked at the statistics on the popularity of social networking posts. It had a whole load of pretty pie charts to show how the underlying emotional tone
