Audrey Kawasaki creates airy, delicate images of girls. They’re usually submerged in porcelain skins and have a sense of vulnerability that makes them both fastidious and alluring.

Audrey Kawasaki’s blurbs:

The themes in Audrey Kawasaki’s work are contradictions within themselves. Her work is both innocent and erotic. Each subject is attractive yet disturbing. Audrey’s precise technical style is at once influenced by both manga comics and Art Nouveau. Her sharp graphic imagery is combined with the natural grain of the wood panels she paints on, bringing an unexpected warmth to enigmatic subject matter.

I hope to own one of Audrey’s paintings one day - soon.

Margaret Cho is one of those comedians you either love or hate and in my case, I happen to love her - not because she was the first Korean female I remember seeing on network television, ironically on a show called: “All-American Girl” (Chinese extras on MASH don’t count!) she’s also super smart, punk-rock-sassy and her razor sharp humor is lethal.

Margaret’s blurbs:

Margaret Cho was born Dec. 5, 1968 and raised in San Francisco. “It was different than any other place on Earth,” she says. “I grew up and went to grammar school on Haight Street during the ’70s. There were old hippies, ex-druggies, burnouts from the ’60s, drag queens, and Chinese people. To say it was a melting pot - that’s the least of it. It was a really confusing, enlightening, wonderful time.”

MC, your most recent post on your blog really helped get my head straight - komapsumnida!

The self proclaimed biggest midget in the game [Lady Sovereign] came rolling into town last night and performed at the world famous El Rey theatre in Los Angeles and I had the good fortune of being there.

Lady Sov’s blurbs:

Her size, color, sex and nationality may set Sov well apart from the herd, but her flow is just as arresting: an electrifying mixture of Jamaican dancehall ..chat,.. British cultural reference points, and a playful wit all her own.

Sov’s lyrical mayhem, smothered in cockney malt vinegar — along with her raucous stage show and command of the crowd had everyone dancing and waving their middle fingers all night…oh yeah, the three gin and tonics were mighty yummy too.

When it comes to ingenuity, Myspace user “awenit” has some major game… yeah, yeah, yeah, you’re probably saying to yourself, what’s the big deal, I’ve seen tons of people whoring out their Myspace page for cash — true, but how many of them have done it being totally honest?

AWENIT’s blurbs:

So Ryan quit Myspace and there’s a spot left over in my top friends and I can’t decide who to pick. See my profile at www.myspace.com/aewint

Good reasons to be my top friend:
-My other top friends are pretty nice, so it’s inferred that you’re nice also
-Previous top friends have included Kevin Federline and several strangers
-I am friendly
-My blog has Courtney Love’s new year’s resolutions and a list of reasons why “Wind It Up” by Gwen Stefani sucks, and also some stories about how i keep accidentally exposing myself to this girl at work
-I never say OMG, LOL or use emoticons

Reasons that it’s not such a good idea:
-I’m not famous
-It’s not like I have 1000 friends or something and my profile is some treasure trove of hot babes. It is more like a tiny amazing pocket of hot babes
-I don’t have any sexually suggestive pictures

As of this post, the auction has over 20 bids, the high bid is currently at 51.00…that’s a lot of beer money.

The great thing about art is that it’s all subjective and that’s why I love Etsy.com. There you’ll find all kinds of artists with all types of styles making all types of things for all sorts of people.

Today I found artist Ashleyg and the second print in her “HELLO” series named “Hello November” and in the immortal words of Ice Cube; “Today was a good day.”

Ashleyg’s blurbs:

I strongly believe in what you’re happiest doing at five is what you will be happiest doing your entire life. Growing up, I endlessly drew and embroidered onto washcloths that my grandma gave me little creatures and animals that I desperately wanted to live in the woods of my backyard.

On the first of every month Ashley releases a limited edition print. The print is only available for that month, and $5.00 of every print will go to charity.

With a style uniquely her own, tattoo artist and goddess of cool, Kat Von D rocks the cable airwaves on TLC’s hit reality TV show, “Miami Ink.”

Kat’s blurbs:

Growing up in the Inland Empire, a collision of influences led Kat into tattoing much earlier than most, her first tattoo came at age 14, an old english “J” on her ankle, a memento of a love gone-by. Shortly thereafter, realizing her natural art ability, in early 1996 her friends asked her to pick up the machine and get to work on them (her first effort was a Misfits skull with a homemade rig), the tattooing wasn’t easy but she knew it felt right and she knew she wanted to pursue it. In 1998, she began working in her first professional shop, Sin City Tattoo, a local place in her neighborhood.

Kat Von D is all about her art but when she’s not, she’s all about being the KAT’s MEOW!

With an eye for the yummy and a knack for crocheting, this DIY punk rock maven is redefining the world of accessories with her interpretation of wearable food.

TWINKIECHAN’s blurbs:

I make silly food-themed scarves. I have been crocheting goodies like tiger-head Kleenex cozies, frog hats with dangly legs, and BBQ pork bun plushies for my friends and family since I was ten years old. When my Grandma Wendleton first taught me to crochet in the 80s, I made lots of misshapen brown squares for a long time and called them “mini blankets.” You have to start somewhere!

I have a website at at TWiNKiECHAN.COM, but I’m also kind of bad about updating it, and I need to figure out how to re-organize it!

Remember kids, the key to staying warm and yummy is: accessorize! accessorize! accessorize!

Mari Musicaux isn’t just your average concert hall prodigy — no, she’s much more then that. With a passion for industrial and electro music and her punk rock looks that kill, you would never think she’s a classically trained pianist but once you hear her performance of Mozart Piano Sonata streaming from your Myspace music player, you know you’re listening to something special.

Mari’s blurbs:

I am in my final year at The Purcell School (for young musicians), where I receive professional music education, in performance. Currently I study 4 levels and hope to continue studying academic music and sequence music after school.

Look up the definition of eclectic in the dictionary and you just might find a picture of Mari Musicaux.

ROLLING STONE’S 20th ANNUAL HOT ISSUE just proclaimed Vietnamese American model and aspiring Hip-Hop artist, Tila Tequila as the Most Popular Girl on Myspace.

Tila’s blurbs:

Tila Tequila has done it all on her own, and definitely on her own terms. She’s an internationally known star who has built her network of fans literally, one friend at a time. What’s more, she has the email addresses of all of her friends, who wouldn’t want that sort of access to their fans and crew?

The self-described “American Hellcat,” Tila’s internet shenanigans have also earned her the title “The Baddest Bitch on the Block,” at least according to her Myspace page and with over 1,428,055 Myspace friends and her hit song “F*** Ya Man,” I believe her — booyah.
