The first time I noticed Sabrina Carpenter


My wife is taking a time off from her job and now is a good time to finally get into those movies I've been itching to watch. I've already seen The Assistant twice, and I wouldn't mind seeing it again but one must try to get a life. So I thought of watching The Short History of the Long Road.

Sabrina Carpenter has been around for a while, most notably as Maya Hart in the Disney Channel series Girl Meets World. But I have a feeling ten years from now people will look back at this coming-of-age tale and say, "That's the first time I noticed Sabrina Carpenter."

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.

What if directors actually looked like the characters in their films?

One of the things I like about the internet is the fact that it provides an endless showcase for the most incredible corners of human creativity. Like, for example, these quirky wooden sculptures by Seattle-based artist Mike Leavitt . For his latest series, King Cuts , Mike transforms some of the most renowned filmmakers into satirical sculptures. They're on view at the Jonathan Levine Gallery in New York until June 11, consists of 16 new hand-carved sculptures of directors like Tim Burton, Alfred Hitchcock, Steven Spielberg and Quentin Tarantino. The artist fused Burton with three of the filmmaker's works;  Batman , Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands , while Hitchcock is transformed into one of his own attacking birds. Watch the making of the Tarantino sculpture below. You can also follow Mike on  Instagram to see his work in progress.
