LOLbots, Adorable Pixel Robots!

There is nothing better than pixely robots doing their robot things in a comic strip by Richard Stevens. Each bot has his own personality, Red Robot is the angry one and Clango is naive.. of course it’s the interactions that really make it fun (there are UFOs, jukeboxes, TVs, puppies, and yes, a bucket).  You can view all the comics at lolbots.com.

Virtual Trash Monsters by Brandon Jan Blommaert

Brandon Jan Blommaerts Virtual Trash Sculpture

Brandon Jan Blommaert's Virtual Trash Sculpture

Brandon Jan Blommaert makes these recycled monsters out of trash, photographs them, and then composites the creatures over real landscapes – the result is pretty spectacular. I suggest you check out Brandon’s Flickr Photostream for a behind-the-scenes  making of the monsters, or view the final artwork here. (via Inhabitat)

‘My Milk Toof’ by Inhae Renee Lee

Toof Cleaning

Toof Cleaning

Inhae Renee Lee, a California artist, does an amazing job choreographing two little teeth, Ickle and Lardee, in their delightful adventures. Subtle humor permeates the light-hearted photo stories that include bath-time, hopelessly vying for  attention, midnight snacks, cheering up a sad plant, being greedy with ice cream, and exploring the outside world. Here are some of my favorites:
