Neverending Story-themed art show

A few of my favorites from the Neverending Story-themed art show by Magic is Science:

These first few are all by Sam Mitchell:






And here's a Luckdragon by Maria Teresa Garcia (it's like geek mistletoe):



I like the Magic is Science logo, too:



Here's photos from the opening, and a fashion shoot loosely based on the concept.

Patricio Oliver's "The Horror Forest"

Vampires, luckdragons, tentacled-monsters, banshees and more on display in Patricio Oliver's "The Horror Forest" image set. Via.

Artists, his official site is a great example of what not to do if you want someone to blog about your work. No rss feed, newsletter, or permalinks. And the "news links" in the fancy flash interface didn't work. I found his Flickr gallery only after a bit of Google searching. If you want publicity, don't waste your time on a fancy flash interface. Just set up a pleasant-looking blog with a full rss feed and obvious links to your webstore.

UPDATE: Patricio says in the comments, "I'm working on changing my website really soon! you are totally right."
