Sheeple, Aliens and Dinosaurs

I've been a fan of John Conway ever since his book All Yesterdays came out and was surprised to see I've never actually posted about his work on my blog. John has been drawing dinosaurs since he was a kid, and is known for his unique portrayals of the prehistoric creatures. He caught my attention again today when I discovered this uncanny illustration he did (pictured above). Most of his work is done in Photoshop and Illustrator, but he also paints with Procreate on the iPad.

"I explore some subjects that are not often found fine art," he explains. "I just paint things because I like the idea a lot of the time." Scroll down and check out some of his amazing creations.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Weirdly Charming

If you’re a fan of art that makes you do a double-take, you need to check out Richard Brener . Based in the UK, Richard is an internationally collected artist who works primarily with ink, fineliners, and gouache. When you first see his pieces, they actually look pretty playful. Then you realize the entire canvas is packed with thousands of tiny, ghost-like shapes he calls "champs." They’re all squeezed together like commuters on a rush-hour train, and the level of detail is honestly mind-blowing. Richard spends hundreds of hours drawing these little guys over and over. It’s obsessive, very intentional, and a little bit wild. The cool part is that the longer you stare, the more the vibe shifts. Check out more photos below:

When the Agave is Fine, But the Decanter is Finer

I rarely drink tequila, but this limited-edition Reposado from Gran Agave makes my brain scream: "I must own this thing!" I'm buying it not because of the balanced flavor and aroma, smooth texture, or even purity—but because I really like the ceramic ghost-shaped decanter. Once it's empty, I'll just refill it with something cheaper, just to keep the Halloween spirit alive.
