mmm...CUPCAKES!!!

So a while back i had mentioned to someone one day that had a serious craving for Vegan Red Velvet Cupcakes. And the response that followed was a strange look with a comment of "That doesn't sound very appetizing."

So why the sudden excitement over cupcakes? Because I just received the following book in the mail today.

Not only are they the best tasting cupcakes, they've got to be the best looking cupcakes I've ever seen!

In other cupcake news, Twinkiechan who was featured in Giant Robot about 2 years ago for her food scarves, is in the process of making cupcake hoodies.

The rest of her work can be seen at twinkiechan.com

David Jien

I have been following David's work for some time now, ever since he submitted work for our first Ninja Show. His work in the last year or so has really been a feast for the eyes. There is a transcendental quality in his images as well that keeps the viewer engaged in the symbols and possible meanings. We are pleased to have some of his new and original work for the upcoming, highly anticipated Line Weight Show with James Jean, Vania Zouravliov and others.

He just recently posted some lithographs and etchings up for sale. Check them out here:

Totoro Forest, Part II

The Totoro Forest Project was a success. Dice & co. did an amazing job organizing the event, the turnout was great and every single piece sold. They raised over $200,000 for the Totoro Forest fund, and I believe the books are sold out (though it may be possible to purchase one at the Cartoon Art Museum where the work is currently being displayed). Here's a snapshot from the Cartoon Art Museum:
