While I don’t think Loki would appreciate being described as “cute”, “adorable”, “darling” and “huggable”; he really is when you crochet him in this cute, adorable, darling and totally huggable pocket version. From his removable hat, to his long flowing black hair, and his familiar black and green robes, Loki can go anywhere with you to cause mayhem and disaster keep you company when you need him.
What can I say? Heath Ledger won my heart very early on in his acting career in the U.S. From “A Knight’s Tale” through to “The Dark Knight”, his name pulled me to the theaters time and again.
I found this afghan on Craftster and my heart just melted. Not only is it is very well done and a labor of love, but it’s a great tribute to his life, his work, and his impact on our movie industry.
Pesky Pixie! Thank you for creating this beautiful afghan!
LolleBijoux is an artist who makes ADORABLE key-chain figures. I’d like to bring to your attention these little- girl versions of some of the women of DC and Marvel. Too cute! Way to put a fun spin on how we see these characters. I’m pretty smitten with Harley Quinn myself. The sassy pose and the partially open smile?
This is why we squee, people. This is why we squee.
Nail art always fascinates me. Not the butterfly and bling kind. The geeky, awesome kind.
Well, there just so happened to be exactly that in the Geek Crafts Flickr pool this week. Flickrer ClaireWallis made epic Venom nail art! Look how fun that looks!
If only I had the patience…
This weekend my daughter, husband, and I checked out the Spectrum Fantastic Art Live! convention in Kansas City. Spectrum publishes an annual art book featuring “a regular showcase for the best fantasy, science fiction, horror, and otherwise uncategorizable artwork”. This is the first year they have also hosted an art fair/trade show “for those who take delight in the worlds of What If?…”
According to the show guide book, “Fantastic art can be a slightly skewed, off-kilter view of reality or a full-blown creation of imaginary lands and the people–and creatures–that live there.” Given that definition, the art fair definitely provided examples of the fantastic – from fairies to the macabre, there was a little something for everyone.
