Movement Paintings by Simon Birch

"Nothing is more hallowing than the union of kindred spirits in art. At the moment of meeting, the art lover transcends himself. At once he is and is not. He catches a glimpse of Infinity, but words cannot voice his delight, for the eye has no tongue. Freed from the fetters of matter, his spirit moves in the rhythm of things. It is thus that art becomes akin to religion and ennobles mankind. It is this which makes a masterpiece something sacred. "

Summer Teeth Blog

This is a really good blog to follow as it's like this lovely lady has made us an edit of all the fashion magazines that exist and put them all in to one lovely big visual blog. I'm putting some of the images here but you should go to the blog page and sit with a cup of cha and spend the next two hours browsing. I insist!

Music Videos

None of these are particularly new but I have only just discovered them in recent months so I will share with you. If you've got a free 15 minutes check out these music videos. All have some sort of animation or visual affects that make them special and worth a watch. If you want to know more about the video makers I've put their names in brackets.
