The Eyestorm

How fitting given the state of my ocular area last week (staph infection, monstrous swelling, amused family members) that I have become enthralled with the art website, Eyestorm (British in origin, of course). The web outpost of a boutique-like gallery in London, this site features unique, modern pieces which register a little bit of the tongue-in-cheek attitude and macabre mood that I quite relish.

My favorites are the amusing, bemusing bird renderings by Vic Reeves...They remind me a bit of a colorful Edward Gorey. They are all certainly worth a browse if you're looking to spend some extraneous income.
