This is cool: Great Wall of Vagina

UK artist Jamie McCartney made a wall of vaginas. And it’s fascinating. Because you never really get to see a vagina like this anywhere. Just hanging out, not performing but just being a vagina. It’s awesome. And they all look so different! I had no idea vaginas could look like some of these.

Jamie made a polyptych full of vagina castings. He used over 400 real-life vaginas ranging from ages 18 to 76. Check out the rest of the vaginas here!

Thomas Kinkade is just like a Spencer’s Gifts. Here’s why.

I’ve never really thought much about Thomas Kinkade. It’s a familiar name that people know and probably associate with houses in the snow with carriages and lots of brick. Pleasant-y things, but never an actual portrait that comes to mind because they are all just pleasing enough to passively look at.

As I was looking through his art, I came across these Disney portraits he did. They kind of look like a mix between the beloved cartoon we all grew up with and something you might find at a Spencer’s Gifts. You know, the felt posters that glow in the dark with a lingering incense aroma and the ever present feeling that a 13 year old redheaded boy staring at you. Who knew Spencer’s Gifts and Thomas Kinkade portraits would have so much in common.

RIP TK.

Louise van Terheijden is one of my newly discovered favorite favorite favorite artists. Her pieces have a subtle and beautiful personality that she describes as being “colorful, transparent and poetical.” She is from the Netherlands and creates all her pieces in her own studio.

I love all of her work. I asked for one print for Christmas, and my brother gave it to me. It is beautiful. Take a look at her Etsy page. Her personal website goes into more detail about her past work. It’s written in Dutch, but you can still navigate the page and take a nice stroll through her work. It’s worth the temporary language confusion.

If I had no economical restraint, I would buy all of her Etsy prints. Curse you, terrible economy! Pick up a Louise, so we can be art buddies.
