Eye Candy Breakfast -- Mike Stilkey



I'm going to get back to blogging about my tour,
but while that is underway, check out this awesome art!




It's all painted on stacked books.






The artist is Mike Stilkey, from Los Angeles.






Love. These.

  3. So unusual.

    Love the white cat, all by itself. So haunting.

    I love that I see things on your blog that I would never see anywhere else.

  4. I had found a picture of his work on a tumblr a few years ago and had no idea who the artist was. I even blogged the picture on a post I did called bookshelves. I have always wanted to paint on books ever since.

  5. Yowza! How cool is that!

    I never would have thought of doing something like this, ever. Even if I could paint.

    I'm just not that imaginative. :D
