the missing link is a pair of wireframe glasses that are more oblong, but i don't know where they went. the progression totally makes sense though :þ

Life as told by LEGOs

Wired has a gallery on Mike Stimpson, a programmer who recreates historic photos using LEGOs, then takes photos of them. While the recreations are pretty neat, it's sometimes eerie seeing those plastic smiley faces looking so happy during what originally were times of crisis.

a life of paper

i am convinced that i've been drawing for almost my whole life.

i threw out a lot about 4 years ago and i threw out a lot this past week, so this isn't everything. i drew so much, it's almost obvious that i should've been an artist at an early age. to think i was pursuing genetic engineering.

how and when did you know that you wanted to be an artist? animator? designer? whatever it is that you do?
