Artist Matt W. Moore recently ran an exhibit in Cincinnati showing off his very dope vector like canvas paintings. What’s really ill to me is that the medium used here is spray paint, and you get to see him at work doing an entire wall in this style. Really clean, really fresh.
Nerds love pizza and nerds love Star Trek. Nerds need this Enterprise-shaped pizza cutter to show how they are nerdier than the nerdiest nerds on the message boards.
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.

If zombies had no teeth, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to have our body parts in their mouths. These plush zombie slippers simulate that very experience.

Baltimore Mural by Josh Van Horne
My friend Josh Van Horne, a local Baltimore artist, did this amazing mural in our neighborhood that depicts the history of this warehouse-laden area.
Inside this sea urchin shell is an organic perfume made from grapefruit and basil essential oils. This bottle, designed by Stephanie Simek, is refillable and is packaged in a wooden box decorated with a satin photograph and padded with slices of exfoliating loofah sea sponges. The Honeymoon-themed fragrance is all natural: made from plant-based oils and contains no alcohol or chemicals. We like. Read more
