Dirty car art by Scott Wade


Trading paint for dust, Scott Wade creates stunning works of art using dirt and mud as his medium. He works as a graphic user interface designer, but his time is increasingly spent producing amazingly detailed images on filthy car windows. The San Antonio-based artist has done a number of commissioned works for major brands and his creations have been featured on various TV shows, fairs, festivals, and corporate events.

Scott was exposed to drawing at a very young age, but his career as a dirty car artist began when his vehicle got blocked in at a parking lot. Out of boredom, he pulled out a chewed popsicle stick out of his mouth and started doodling on a grimy windshield. On average he says he spends between an hour and a half and three hours on each drawing. Here, his take on Stephen Hawking and Albert Einstein. Be sure to check out Scott's official website for more.

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.

Biking to School with Kids

I love biking to school with my children. It's a great way to start the day, and it's a lot of fun. Both of them have their own bicycles, meaning I'm basically herding two slightly erratic cyclists. My kids' two-wheelers are quite new and pretty decent. Mine is more like a rusty ten-speeder with a penchant for chain slippage. It's a cheap, rickety bike from China but it's my vehicle of choice for running errands, and honestly, it gets the job done. My youngest is still working on his steering. My eldest, on the other hand, is all about speed. She thinks she's in the Tour de France, so I'm constantly shouting, "Slow down!" Of course there are moments of near disaster. But you know what? Despite the mayhem, there's something undeniably satisfying about arriving at our destination, slightly out of breath, on our bikes. There are also moments of pure, unadulterated joy – like when we are pedaling along the street, the sun on our faces, the wind...
