Vince Low's Scribbled Masterpieces

Kuala Lumpur-based artist Vince Low, who I discovered on Twisted Sifter about two years ago, creates random scribbles on paper to produce stunning portraits of celebrities, animals, and pop culture icons. His scribble-style sketches began when, as head illustrator of an ad agency, he created three portraits of famous dyslexics to raise awareness for the disorder: John Lennon, Pablo Picasso, and Albert Einstein. Because Vince himself is dyslexic, he became personally attached to the project and continued his unique drawings past the original task.

You can see more examples of his amazing work on Behance.

The Chameleon

Damon Albarn is a genius. He constantly reinvents himself, pushes his boundaries, and challenges his listeners. From the raw energy of Blur to the diverse soundscapes of Gorillaz, his solo work, and his collaborations with other artists, Damon has proven himself to be one of the most talented and unpredictable musicians alive.

It's Beautiful, But Also Could Explode

Ah, Taal Lake. Admirable, breathtaking, a perfect postcard of tranquility. And then you remember. Oh right, there's a volcano inside the lake, inside an island, inside another body of water. It's like an Inception movie directed by mother nature, and frankly, I'm pretty sure she's just messing with us at this point.

A story about a duck who likes being different

The hilarious "Duckie Duck" by Kate Toms is one of my recommendations for kids learning to read. My son got this book from his aunt in Calgary a few years ago and since then has become one of his favorites. First of all, this is not your average duck tale. This is a story about a fowl who, candidly, seems to have missed the memo on duck protocol. Most ducks quack, but Duckie whistles. Others love to swim, but not him — Duckie likes boat rides. While other water birds fly, he enjoys floating inside a hot air balloon. The rhyming text and delightful hand-stitched illustrations make the book visually appealing to children. So, if you're looking for a book to teach your quirky little kids to read, "Duckie Duck" is just perfect.
