Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, “Tsukema Tsukeru”



Read about “Tsukema Tsukeru,” by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu

This reminds me to look for an old issue of a J-pop related magazine I have hidden somewhere. Update on this, maybe/I hope!

Scandalous




via



I can't help it, but the above Les Sucettes video has been a favourite. The giant dancing lollipops..


Here is a YSL wedding dress from 1965, a bit funny.




Another 60's controversy, The Cake's "You can have him" video, in which one of the singers stands still and lip-syncs.

Slight dream come true



I spent every free second drawing while I downloaded over 200 photos, one at a time, at work with slow internet.

I wasn't able to go to the above, but went to a talk with Jodorowsky after a viewing of "El Topo" at Lincoln Center. Last year, he spoke about his book that was translated in English, Psychomagic: The Transformative Power of Shamanic Psychotherapy.

They are all from Pixie Market, I just like the cuts. The second model reminds me of Shelley Duvall.

And a bracelet that makes me think of sand art and pop rocks/sugar crystals



let us lettuce, let her leather?





I don't know what to say about puff sleeve leather gloves, except:

They are by pushBUTTON. Reminds me of Rachel Comey leather socks. Mysteriously went missing from Pixie Market's webzy - I think they were on only for 2-3 weeks, but even sold out items still show up.

I "rediscovered" Creepy-chan as I looked her in the eyes yesterday. The first two works of art were done by her.

Mee Hang (Mim Haam)

This hat, designed by Lisa Cestaro of Lika, reminds me of the Hmong clothes and music videos of Mee Hang that I've been admiring for some time.

note : I don't think you can see the marquee element in action in your blog reader. Compatible with Firefox (best) & Safari (other browsers?). Not so much with Google Chrome, as some of the marquees don't work.

. . .

I've been spending time with a couple of my favourite html elements - the marquee and the table. Above is a virtual painting of their lovely coexistence. The ♥ symbol is now included in the Oxford English Dictionary. I guess I'm into that. The dark floating cloud at the bottom is a secret.

Marquee de belle is a marquee gallery blog, started in 2008, representing all of my works in marquee. Also featured is one of the early sketches for the above painting.

Creampuff mountain tee





It's another one of those t-shirts I draw on, and I have many t-shirts.

Take a peek at cake on my bum, which is kind of a bad home ec. project, sewn from a t-shirt.
