Ancient Japanese Pokemon

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

A talented artist has created these wonderful traditional Japanese scrolls displaying all of the Pokemon from both Pokemon Red & Blue and  Pokemon Gold/Silver.

Unfortunately all I have to credit the artist by is this website, which is entirely in Japanese.

You can check out the images by clicking on the links below. Be patient, they are quite large.

I Have The Power

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

“I Have The Power” an art show paying tribute to He-Man and the Masters Of The Universe was held recently, bringing artist together to create some truly awesome He-Man inspired artwork.

I would have loved to have had the opportunity to attend the event, but alas, I will have to settle for the vast number of images available online thanks to the wonderful bloggers who were lucky enough to attend.

Here are a few of the pieces I liked.  More images along with prints and original works from the event can be viewed and purchased here.
