Asses and baby-eating

"Ass magnet." Criminally safe for work. by thebloggess
Create a magnet with zazzle

I knew her as an amazing, hilarious blogger, not as a zazzler. After finding her store, aptly named The Bloggess, I realized that her surreal sarcasm extends to crazy designs as well. "Ass magnet" is an amazing idea and a must have for all you smart, perverted souls out there!

Also, I eat babies. by thebloggess
More Bloggess Mousepads

Have you ever felt the need for cute, baby-eating cats? Well, Jenny Lawson  tells it like it is:

This mousepad is awesome because people will see it and they'll be all "Aw, what a sweet kitty!" and then they'll read the bottom and they'll be all confused and they'll back out of your office without ever giving you whatever work they wanted you to do. The cat on this mousepad just saved you from work. Also, it eats babies.

For once, I'm speechless. I should add, though, that if you haven't visited her blog, The Bloggess (Like Mother Teresa, only better), you are missing out on the craziest, most enjoyable rumblings this side of the web!

Punk mail

Envelope with colored comic bird drawing by editionha
View other Comic Envelopes

Do you remember snail mail? Well, you should, because there is nothing like the feeling you get when receiving a letter. It's instant proof that someone likes you enough to actually spend some time and effort writing and sending it. Plus, if the envelope is something like this crazy punk bird (complete with the dark eyeglasses, mohawk, boots and all!) you're off to a smiling day!
I found this gem in Edition Handdruck and the artwork was made by Martin Stankewitz. The glorious doodling in the text balloon is customizable so you can put your name and address. Let the bird carry your message to your loved ones!

[Martin is a draughtsman and artist printer specializing in monotype prints. His squidoo lense on monotype printing is very interesting and informative. A really great place to start learning about monotypes, full of valuable resources and advice from this experienced artist.]

Don't get me wrong, here. Kev is a great artist that doesn't stop on black and white. He has the enviable ability to create funny characters from whatever strikes his fancy. Bowling pins, slices of pizza or just plain brush strokes.

I had never thought about it: what if bunnies had dentures like these? They may be all smiles now, but I'm pretty sure that, sooner or later, strange -and possibly violent- things could happen! Thanks to this weird and funny mug by Michael Dodge (aka KLAATUWI), we are forewarned.
Michael, an imaginative doodler, has a sense of humor I really like!

Oh, the girls!

Au Bonheur des Dames (The Ladies' Delight) is the title of a novel by the French author Émile Zola. It seems that it also was the name of a wild French rock band, back in the '70s. And by wild I mean screaming, rock 'n' rolling, androgynous, surrealistic, campy and utterly wacko! I didn't know about them but this video is the proof that the past is a strange place to be. The name of the song is Oh, les filles (Oh, the girls). The last forty seconds are truly bombastic.

I'm a skateboard, hear me roar

Roar Skateboard by segrid
Make your own skateboards at zazzle

Ninja jesters, two-legged mutant mutts, Joris-Karl Huysmans and Nicola Tesla's forehead have something in common: they are in good company at Segrid's dimensionally transcendental store! Segrid, aka Patrick Reinhart, is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to strangely humorous and surreal designs. His Roar skateboard is one of my all-time favorites -plus, it may be the only mustachioed skateboard around!

My Stomach Is Dimensionally Transcendental T-Shirt by segrid

One more thing to consider is the utter coolness of having something dimensionally transcendental, too. I choose stomach -because it may be the only thing in me that comes close to it.
You have to experience his work and his sense of reality. This man's designs bite!

The Dada Bard

shakespeare The CUnning Linguist T Shirt by Dax by daximonious
Create customized tshirts at zazzle

Here is a glorious Shakespeare portrait, indeed! It consists of a wild conglomeration of hidden images, remindful of Giuseppe Arcimboldo . The artist, Dax Norman of Daximonious,  does with sketches what the Renaissance master did with fruits, vegetables and books -and that's quite a surreal way to approach art! I love this design in the ruined shirt, just as it is.

Dax gets even weirder when he pays homage to the style of Hieronymus Bosch in his own psychedelic and dadaistic way. Great paintings to cover your upper body or give a trippy feeling to your wall!
Regardless of the things I have chosen to present here, his style is really vibrant and exploding with crazy colors -nicely balanced ones, mind you! Find more about this unique painter from Texas and his manifold talents in Dax Norman's great site.

What a postcard! This design amazes me. It manages to be surreal, humorous, tender and gorgeous at the same time. Seems based in the finest tradition of graphic design (some '40s and '50s styles come to mind) and I do wish you have friends who will appreciate receiving such a work of art.
The artist is Belinha Fernandes from Portugal, her store is named Papelustro and everyone crazy enough to follow this blog will be more than happy to go there and take a look!
