It's Awesome and Cool at the SAME. TIME.



I can't really claim THIS one...I stole it from my awesome new friend, Bill Alger.  But is this not the most FABULOUS?  I totally need one...

Head in the clouds feet on the ground, by Gabriel Lehman


(Click link above for a closer look at this painting...)


Introducing the work of Gabriel Lehman, a friend of mine and what I consider to be an EXTROIDINARY artist...with no formal training, he just picked up a brush one day (not that long ago!) and started painting...and the results are ALWAYS breathtaking.  I consider his art as something of a mix between Salvador Dali and Tim Burton.  He is TRULY one of those people that was just BORN to be what he is....how lucky he is to have found his purpose, and so young!!  Besides all that...he is the NICEST GUY you will ever meet.  So for all of the above, I give him today's TOTAL AWESOMENESS award!!  <cheers from the crowd>
