I’m really excited that Pinterest has added an ‘embed’ option so that I can more easily share the items I have pinned throughout the week here! Ideally I was looking for a faster way of creating a mosaic of sorts from my different boards, but at the moment, this is just as nice.

First up is a sampling from one of my boards I’ve named Inspire… mainly because these are bits that don’t fit into my other boards :)

I love to come across fun street art!

This building interests me each time I walk past it, I imagine the beautiful spaces you could build in there, and I love the old and uneven bricks from the adjacent buildings. My daily inspection was rewarded this time with some colourful leggo graffiti.

Lost… it was such a love it or hate it tv series.

I loved it :) In so many ways it was a fantastic story and I am not disappointed in the ending at all – how else could it end?! Not one person I know likes Lost and I really think they’re all missing out, I enjoyed even the seasons that went off track and seemed pointless.

I’d love something cool, besides each season on blu-ray (currently only have them on dvd…) to memorialise the series and I’ve found two sites selling products that definitely fit the bill.

The auction of  small props used during the filming is currently being previewed, the website unfortunately gives no indication of the auction date – I would LOVE some Dharma Initiative beer cans or condiment bottles!

Also, artist Ty Mattson is selling silk screened prints with a perfect retro feel on the abc site, there are 3 or 4 prints I could definitely live with them hanging on my walls. My favourite is the print I’m showing here because the story line of Locke is one that I particularly liked, I really did love that character.

I love to happen across quirky little signs like this one I spotted on my way back from vegie shopping this morning. It reminds of this sticker we saw over at South Bank a couple of weeks ago, except that this is not deliberately ironic, which makes it a far better find. It’s a mailbox, but it’s not a mail box.

This is not a pole

The Blue Alice, Charles Blackman (1956-1957) at the Queensland Art Gallery

blue ALICE, Lisa Gair (2008?) at Fusions Gallery

It definitely looks to me that Lisa Gair found some inspiration for her blue ALICE in Charles Blackman’s The Blue Alice. It felt exciting to spot these two within a couple of weeks of each other, I like both works a lot.

I have some more photos of sculptures by Lisa Gair currently being exhibited at Fusions Gallery in Fortitude Valley – they have an Alice in Wonderland theme and they’re all interesting, fun & a little bit weird.
