The thing about artists like Sas Christian is that seeing one of their images is fantastic, but looking at a lot at once is like hearing the same joke over and over with slight variation.

The distant future, the distant future

While we’re looking at toys, here’s Ice Bot by sometime graffiti artist dalek.
Hot Cha Cha Cha

When it comes to the work of the nearly ubiquitous Gary Baseman I much prefer the disturbingly cute toys to the paintings.
The Mobius Strip Tease

A recent cartoon candy painting by the artist.
The nurse will see you now

Pure Trance by Junko Mizuno. Perhaps not appropriate for your cubicle collection.
Queen Wasp by Naoto Hattori

More from the artist over here
Smoke ’em if you got ’em

The ship in the background is doomed, and so is the relationship between those two women. More from Quyen Dinh.
Liza Lou makes things out of beads

And I don’t think there’s much more to it than that. I put this in the same category as watching elaborate domino displays. Fun, temporarily mesmerizing, completely shallow.
Allegory of the four elements

Found out this classic was for sale just a few days too late, otherwise it would be hanging in my living room. Mark Ryden’s best work, which is saying quite a lot. A mixture of symbols, detail, absurdity and fantastic skill.
Nice legs
