the good book

One of my favorite webcomics, updated on an almost weekly basis. The kind of comics that makes you go, "Eh... oh? Hahaha!" The one that I've highlighted here always makes me laugh.

His art work is quite luscious, and his humor is well wicked. You will enjois.

macabre!

And now, time for something a little less chirpy, cuddly, and cupcakey: the fascinatingly macabre world of the highly talented Chang Yoong Chia.

doodie

So cute! These quirky stuffed toys, called 'doodolls', are so cuddly and weird-looking that you wouldn't mind the awkward descriptions the fellas who thought up these things have put. For PinkiePirate here, it says that:

"With his exceptional sense of direction and savvy seafaring skills, no wonder Pinkie Pirate has explored every land and ocean. A descendent of the infamous pirate who conquered he seas, he is also the owner of a magical wooden sword that will bring you wherever your heart desires!"

Umm... right. Anyway, the website has 12 doodolls on display (one for each sign of the horoscope! Pinkie Pirate here's an Aries...), plus where you might be able to find them.

Galleryyyyy

A couple of weeks back, an entrepreneurial gallery-owner in Kuala Lumpur decided to open up what he termed a digital art gallery, which is supposed to be the first of its kind in South East Asia (I can't remember his claims exactly, because I was at their launch for another event). What this meant, exactly, is the opening up of a store and an exhibition gallery at The Annexe @ Central Market, in downtown Kuala Lumpur.

I haven't been there since the opening, but on opening night the place was quite buzzing with the excitement of the new. The store itself looked rather inviting, with the canary yellow-painted walls energizing those who dared to walk in (of course, you could equally argue that a fully yellow-ed out shop can be quite intimidating to enter).

Anyway, it was quite a fun shop, displaying various knick knacks and brickabracks that designers might find interesting: portfolios, art works, etc.

If you get to go to The Annexe, do drop by and check it out.

I Must Be Hungry...

Or at least have a serious case of sweet-tooth-elitis. The lads and lasses of Wondermilk have been pimpin' out their cupcakes (and calling 'em cuppacakes) for some time now, so much so that they take special orders for almost any and all occasions.

Check out these sweet cuppas that they made for the LV flagship store opening party...













Whuttadilly-yo??!

Monster Tasty Yummy

Spotted these yummy cupcakes on Shalia's blog, with an entry on kurasa raksasa (or literally, "i taste monster").

Chantek, but I hope kurasa raksasa comes up with a website of their own soon, with more t-shirts and graphics!













Gojilla eat your heart out :)
