IDEAS, NOTIONS & BOATS MADE OF OCEAN: MUSIC: JENNY LEWIS' ACID TONGUE
http://boatsmadeofocean.blogspot.com/2010/03/music-jenny-lewis-acid-tongue.html
Monday, March 8, 2010. MUSIC: JENNY LEWIS' ACID TONGUE. Personally, I thought that Rilo Kiley -Jenny Lewis' former band- were pretty mediocre; and. The album she recorded with The Watson Twins, which drove a lot of my friends gaga, left me feeling a bit cold. So when she released. E in September of 2008 I didn't even blink. I'd kind of written Jenny Lewis off. And then, over a year after it was released, I listened to it. And holy shit. And then there are the holy-fuck-we're so-weird-we-must-be-artists, ...

Sunday, February 28, 2010. In the last, say, ten years things have changed a bit; black artists rule the charts, and for artists -both white and black- authenticity is almost a dirty word; as I write this, the highest charting white artist on the Billboard Hot 100 is Kesha, whose name I refuse to spell with a dollar sign because it's stupid. Umm, Taylor Swift? Nickelback was the most successful band of the nineties, in terms of record sales? And what the hell's happened to U2? CHECK THIS STUFF OUT, Y'ALL.

IDEAS, NOTIONS & BOATS MADE OF OCEAN: June 2008
http://boatsmadeofocean.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 30, 2008. BANKSY HEARTS BLEK LA RAT. Banksy is a London, England-based artist. He makes public art. His work is almost always political, or at the very least it comments on societal norms, and it more often than not achieves genuine wit. Here is a selection of my favorite of Banksy's works. You can see Blek la Rat's work. Monday, June 9, 2008. THE ALIENS, THEY THINK THE FARMING IS PURTY. It looks like some kind of fancy -and awesome- geometric painting, but it's not. In fact, it's a phot...

Well earlier this year we did something. we bought a lovely yellow paint with every intention of painting those suckers. ...1st e...

Capturing the little things: October 2010
http://cassimush.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 11, 2010. Fall is such an amazing, spiritual season - it normally is to me anyway. Thus far, fall has proven to be a bit moody, but nonetheless beautiful and rejuvenating. Lately I have been struggling with the art of relaxing, and just .letting things go- letting things happen as they happen, and taking each trial as a battle to overcome. I think I will get there.but it's a slow process. Hopefully it won't be another month until I am back again! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A CUP OF JO.

http://boatsmadeofocean.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 24, 2010. I Stumbled on these today. They're dumb, but they're pretty funny. I love a good Fail. I found them on ODDEE. A pretty fun time-wasting site. And my personal favorite:. Thursday, January 21, 2010. I was looking at some art on Etsy, and found this when I searched for "Encaustic Paintings," and sorted them high-priced to low. I'm not entirely sure what to make of it. Ugly, ugly tentacles. Here's the description that accompanies the painting:. I'm not sure if this is some kind of K...

Wednesday, July 30, 2008. TELL ME ABOUT GOD. I found this book in a great used bookstore on Spadina:. Tell Me About God. Written by Mary Alice Jones and illustrated by Pelagie Doane, circa 1959. (Originally published in 1943.). From the inside flap: "Inside this unique and beautiful book are answered the most profoundly important questions children can ask. "Who is God? Why Can't I see God? How does God care for me? Does God Love everybody? GOD SENT HIS SON. Tell me about Jesus," he asked. He did more th...
