Art: Mindy Shapero

Los Angeles-based artist Mindy Shapero creates unique forms that are both structured and organic. The first piece below is made from hand-cut dura-lar (polyester film), latex caulking and steel and the second sculpture is made of a fiberglass shell and hand cut dura-lar. It definitely takes real talent to combine such ingredients into such beautiful pieces of art.

Travel: Expedia Ad Campaign

I just love this ad campaign created by Ogilvy & Mather for Expedia. Clever, clever, clever!

But then again, it’s not like I really need an ad campaign to convince me to travel. My passport is always ready! (And fyi – I most often than not use Expedia for flight, car and hotel bookings because it’s cheap, convenient, and provides good customer service.)

Art: La Cucina

I just love Ana’s food-related artwork available in her Etsy shop Anek. Not only do the prints’ simplicity grab my attention but the sayings on them are in my favourite languages and they share such positive thoughts. Lovely for your own kitchen or the perfect gift for your most favourite foodie, don’t you think?
