I don't post about photography as much as I would like too. The reason might be that it's not often I find something as inspiring as this splendid black and white shot of a shoeshiner at work. Great photo, in the classic tradition of the old masters, from Maurizio Merisi and his ARTigiani Project -an effort to depict the techniques and the stories of craftsmen and artisans from around the world.
Watchman's Note
This is a journey to the best designs in the world of Zazzle.com. Handpicked and presented (along with my own artwork) by yours truly, the driving force behind Surreality designs. We'll discover great artists and special products -mostly with a taste for the eccentric. But let us not confine ourselves in specific genres: the possibilities are endless and so is the great art one can find at Zazzle.

Shoes aplenty
One color is enough to bring a smile on your face! This great t-shirt found in Kev Munday's store is the proof that talent and a fresh look can make art out of anything. And I do mean anything:
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.
He finds inspiration in the strangest places and the designs he delivers are alive with the fervor of street art and graffiti. Urban spirit has seldom been as vibrant as it is in his art.

Damn good shoes!
There are many fine designs and products in Dizzy Debbie's store, but I fell in love with these canvas shoes since the first time I saw them. You can customize laces, soles or binding but, please, don't. They are gorgeous just as she made them, in this soft, grungy, plaid pattern. Surreality approved and endorsed!

Step on it!
I don't know how many people are aware that there are many unique Keds Shoes at Zazzle. Some of them are great, one of a kind designs, that anyone (well... mainly ladies) would be proud to wear.This one, designed by Katie Vollan, is one of the best I've ever seen! An exquisite red paisley design, refined, elegant and playfull. I would love to see it worn with jeans, but I believe it would compliment anything that goes well with red. If you walk in these shoes, you walk in style!
