A couple of weeks ago, I stumbled on the website of Alex Furmansky, the creator of Budsies. He is an entrepreneur whose business is centered around transforming “kid” art into real tangible plush animal dolls. It is pretty awesome:

How do you store your art supplies?

HippieVan at 12:00AM, May 15, 2015



I realized yesterday, after climbing precariously on boxes in the basement while frantically looking for my acrylic paints and ultimately giving up, that I need a better system for storing my art supplies. While I tend to be an untidy person, most of the things I care about (my books ...

HippieVan at 12:00AM, April 17, 2015



It is midsummer, somewhere in the British Midlands and sometime in the mid seventies. It is almost midnight. In a suburban semi-detached house, a teenage girl and her young brother are awaiting the return of their parents. A young man of impressionable age waits with them as they bathe in ...
