Brandon McConnell creates amazing colorful vistas in minutes, and shares his techniques with Robert H. Ross-style videos. I stumbled across one on Youtube, and before my disbelieving eyes, what looked like a mediocre Jackson Pollock spray-paint attack turned into every geek’s secret dream. Not only are the paintings ethereally pretty, the moment of their coalescence is magic.

Arizona illustrator Meg Hunt creates some seriously fun artwork, the kind of stuff I would have drooled over as a kid and still consider the bees knees at my current mature age, the kind of work that really takes me to my happy happy place.

I’m kinda obsessed with this track by Kansas City hipsters, Republic Tigers. Maybe it’s the Phil Spector-ish wall of sound harmonies or perhaps it’s the thumping bass riff, which drives the ear worm melody. Whatever. In these times of throwaway pop, it’s the well crafted and subtely produced songs that are truly memorable, and these guys have it in spades, as reflected right across their brilliant debut album, Keep Color.

Do I like dogs? Yes. Do I like jumpers? Yes. Do I think WARMI’s jumpers with dogs on them are amazing? I sure do!
