Fan Art Fridays: Rabbids
Since the Easter bunny is taking over this weekend, I thought it might be nice to give a different rabbit, or should I say Rabbids, some attention before then. Rabbids are the French alien-rabbit stars of Nickelodeon’s Rabbids Invasion. They’re super weird and they get into all sorts of trouble, making them hilarious to watch.…

Gallery Mondays: Biscuits & Bath Doggy Gym
Since I’m dog sitting for my roommate during her spring break this week, I thought it would be fitting to feature a piece of artwork I saw at Biscuits & Bath on the Upper East Side of Manhattan last month when it was still dead winter. Sully took obedience classes there, and I’m kind of wondering…

Gallery Mondays: #MacysFlowerShow 2017 @ Macy’s Herald Sq
I somehow managed to squeeze some time in after work to navigate the maze that is Macy’s Herald Square in order to see the carnival-themed Macy’s Flower Show 2017. I wasn’t able to see it last year (for reasons I cannot remember) but this year, I was determined to check it out, and I wasn’t…

Happy 21st Birthday, Liza Koshy!
One of my new favorite YouTubers, Liza Koshy, is finally legal today! I discovered her a few weeks ago after watching Boo! A Madea Halloween. She played Aday Walker in the film, and her performance was so amazing I had to look her up online. I’ve been hooked on her videos ever since! To celebrate…

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! In honor of the Irish holiday, I thought it would be fun to feature some fan art of one of my fave actresses of Irish heritage, Saoirse Ronan! I loved her so much in the film Brooklyn. A co-worker of mine got to see her in the play The Crucible, which…

Gallery Mondays: Hung Yi’s Fancy Animal Carnival
Since September, the Garment District in NYC has seen a splash of vibrantly colored animals along Broadway between 36th and 41st Streets. Created by Taiwanese artist Hung Yi, the installation is called Fancy Animal Carnival. It’s very fitting, especially since these animals, which include pandas, camels, and bulls, are decorated so intricately with carnival-like colors. My…

Fan Art Fridays: Darren Criss
Today I was at work casually listening to the New Music Friday playlist on Spotify when I heard a familiar voice come through my headphones. The song was “Lost Boys Life” and the artist was Computer Games–a band didn’t know until I Googled them and found out that Darren Criss is one of the members,…

Gallery Mondays: Nari Ward’s ‘Smart Tree’
I did a double take when I saw this installation of a car made of tire on the High Line two months ago. Yes, you read correctly. Moreover, it’s a smart car made of tire. And that’s not even the best part. Called Smart Tree, the installation, created by Nari Ward, features an apple tree…
