Peanuts-style art

Peanuts has been an integral part of many childhoods, and beyond the comic strip itself the character design really appeals to me. I like the Peanuts movie too, but not as much as my daughter.

He likes to work in watercolor and ink wash but sometimes he will make an oil painting, depending on the film. Tony's very active on social media, and his Tumblr blog contains a massive collection of illustrated movie posters that are often better than the original. ...

Bastiaan Buijs' Grandfather Clock might be the most beautiful vibrator ever

This glass dildo is powered by clockwork and delivers sleek and uncomplicated pleasure that takes you to climax in style. Called the Grandfather Clock, the sex toy is "super expensive" and is only available for the "rich and famous" at the moment – although designer Bastiaan Buijs is currently working on a cheaper version.
