fab ciraolo

I just stumbled upon an awesome blogspot featuring the artworks of one; Fabian Ciraolo. Well, at least I think that's his name because I can't read Spanish and his blog is in Spanish.*

 

It's got this trippy, collage-y vibe to it (and dare I say that loathsome H** word?) and I love his illustration style. Plus, NEBULAS!**

I think it's really cool, I like how he uses pop culture figures and turns them into pretentious d-bags hipsters. If I had a credit card/ or you know actual money, I would totally buy his artwork. Okay, that's a lie. I wouldn't buy artwork in general BUT if he made an album cover for a band/musician I really like, I would buy that CD even if I knew that CD wasn't such a good CD. Maybe. FINE! I just really like his stuff okay? Jeez.

I like how some of my ideas are already on his blog :(

Song of the Month: May 2012

May is almost over which means that WINTER IS COMING. Of course, most people in Cape Town think winter starts the minute the weather stops being super hot and sunshiney (April). Most people are idiots. It is known.*

This month I decided to go with two songs (again). One is by Fleet Foxes. It makes me quite happy.

 

Fleet Foxes - White Winter Hymnal

The next one is by Arcade Fire. This one doesn't make me feel happy...but it doesn't make me feel sad either. I can't quite explain.

 

Arcade Fire - Cold Wind

Both of these songs relate to the first paragraph. Can you guess how? I'm so subtle. Also, I'm aware how hipsterful this post is.






*I'm letting you all know that I totes watch Game of Thrones.
