This image is of a handmade lace shawl, showcased on the DIY website etsy. This website is a great place for artisans to sell their craft, or collectors to sell their vintage items, and although 85% of the website is "cute," there are images like this one that make it more artistic than one would think.

I would love to give credit to the photographer, the artist, etc. but I am unsure of all of this information, so I will just link you to the page.

Punch In The Face

Artist: Asleep In The Sea

Title: Punch In The Face

Album: YAY! O.K. Yeah?

Year: 2004

I love this band, and I wish they were still together. I had no idea they broke up a few years ago until about a week ago when I bothered to look up if they were playing any shows. It's really sad because apparently they had recorded an entire album before breaking up, but then didn't have enough money to produce and release it. It's really a shame when great little things like unknown little bands can't go on anymore.

Artist: Albrect Altdorfer

Title: The Resurrection of Christ (panel from the St. Florian altar).

Year: 1518

Medium: Oil on Wood

I am not obsessed with images of Christ Resurrection, but this, again, is some 15oo's psychedelia.
