::Street Art::

I really like street art.  I know some would only qualify it as graffiti but I like how clever and beautiful it can make ordinary objects look.  These put a smile on my face.







Herakut






The next four images are by Banksy

He is one of my favorite street artists.  
So much mystery surronds him and his pieces make you stop and think.

{Retro at the Movies}

I stumbled upon this designer from California, Eric Tan, that creates retro posters of modern movies and tv.














Love it!  Check out more of his work here.

::Burning Man::

I first heard about Burning Man when I lived in Reno, Nevada. Have you heard of it? It's a festival that meets once a year at the Black Rock Desert. Black Rock City comes to life for a week of art, costumes, experiences and people that culminates in the burning of a giant strucure...hence Burning Man. I would love to attend in the near future... 

Check out these art installations from former years.

Also, if you are in the Utah County area...try our local burning man of sorts this weekend at the 
Pagent of the Ramayana. Sounds like a lot of fun with devotional chanting, dancing, indian food and the burning of a 20 ft. Ravana.
