Brad Woodfin
I love animals, particularly goats (smart, independent, loads of personality, and a sustainable source of milk and meat), so Brad Woodfin’s animal portraits struck a chord with me. Painted in stark chiaroscuro or in front of heavenly clouds, the elephants, owls, deer, sheep, and many many goats in Woodfin’s pieces have a mysterious, brooding, transcendent quality about them.

I love art that scares me a little. Erica Eyres somehow manages to make subtly unnerving drawings of distorted figures using nothing more than a ballpoint pen and a piece of paper. She renders shockingly realistic hair, yet skews the proportions and features of her subjects, exaggerating their expressions and making them look monstrous.
I’m totally into building my own chicken coop when I get around to keeping hens, but the stylish Nogg Coop is pretty awesome.
Set in a remote Chinese village in the 1920s during a cholera outbreak and with a revolution bubbling in the background, The Painted Veil is a wonderfully tortured love story which excels on all levels. Based on the W Somerset Maugham novel, it was a labour of love for stars Edward Norton and Naomi Watts, who also produced the film. Read more

Man, I remember shaking my tail to Come on Eileen many moons ago — when rat-tails were a right of passage and Molly Ringwald held both the lock and the key to my tiny pitter pattering heart.
