Guerrilla art in Austin. Link from caprine.

Jane Austen meets George Romero. Link from housepet. Darcy/zombie slash? I can’t even think about it. Or stop thinking about it.

Everybody is linking to Handknit Heroes, which is totally freaking cool for a number of reasons. The least of which is that this comic book (plus knitting patterns!) comes from my old and dear friend Mortaine. Who was smart enough to get out of the Bay Area while the getting was good.

Everybody should also be linking to these cool comics by oletheros. Full of metanarrative and fascinating art, and definitely worth checking out.

World’s greatest letter of complaint. Link from apocalypsos.

Redneck wedding cakes. Complete with a tasteful spray of shotgun shells.

What’s your favorite unconventional work of art?

    Here’s a shocker: I really like the redneck wedding cakes. The truck mudding? Would have been perfect for my sister and her hubby.

    To be fair and provide full disclosure, I stole the linkie under “Jane Austen meets George Romero” from someone else’s LJ – but I forget whose! Ack!

    Glad you liked it tho ;)

    I like the graffiti at Chernobyl, most of which shows happy children or their silhouettes on the walls facing towards the reactor.
