Ninja Nigel Jr. / Monkey Punch Dinosaur / Kukuburi / The Art of the Brick

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

Sorry for the lateness of this post. Bell Canada has been pulling some jujitsu with my telephone and internet connection. It’s led to some spectacular time-wasting. I’d rather not complain so I’ll just apologize again for my lateness.

Nigel hasn’t had a good report card in months.

Monkey Punch Dinosaur

A couple of weeks ago Adam Ford asked me to draw him a picture of a monkey punching a dinosaur. So I did, for two reasons: 1) He’s from Australia 2) I like The Road Warrior. You can say I’m a simple man, and you’d be right.

Monkey Punch Dinosaur

The image hasn’t been posted on his site, once it is I’ll link you to his bizarre (yet totally lovable) blog.

Kukuburi

It’s a webcomic by Ramon Perez that’s just plain beautiful. The best part is that there’s tons content; you can spend hours there. He’s on a break until Sept. 9th so it wont be updated for a while, nevertheless you should explore and enjoy.

Likewise you can visit his blog Cranial Percolations. You’ll get to see some cool sketches.

The Art of the Brick

Nathan Sawaya is a brick artist, not the big heavy kind but the little plastic ones. Yes, I’m talking about Lego. His website The Art of the Brick is dedicated to his exciting and, I’m proud to say, compelling Lego sculptures. His galleries are very diverse, it makes you wonder why Lego isn’t sold in art supply stores, or why Lego technique isn’t taught in art in schools.

I think we should all take the time to unacknowledged and celebrate that there are people out there who express themselves amazing ways.

Please go to his site, and scour his gallery: The Art of the Brick
