syd barrett by mick rock

i wake up still dreaming

Holy moly {or cow, shit, fill in a noun- you get the picture; or pictures in this case.} Vogue Nippon published one of the most effective editorials that I have come across back in May 2009 entitled “I Wake up Still Dreaming”.

She’s self-taught {no art school for this broad} and uses colored pencils, pens, graphite and oil paints. I [...]

elysian fields @ knitting factory brooklyn, 7.16.2010

When I was in Elementary school, my face would light up with glee whenever I’d receive one of those brightly colored teacher-reward-stickers on an assignment I excelled on. Perhaps I should order a roll from a wholesale company and start slapping them onto everything I am impressed by? I mean, it certainly did the trick [...]
