Tim Patch Penis Painter

Visitors to the opening day of Sexpo in South Africa today were treated to live demonstrations by Australian artist Tim Patch, alias "Pricasso," of his penis paintings of famous global figures.
Neither US President George W Bush, former British prime minister Tony Blair nor former Japanese prime minister Junichiro Koizumi were spared the rod as a naked but for a top hat Patch hammered out a series of surprisingly realistic depictions.
Former Brisbane builder Tim Patch was finding it difficult to crack the art market until he dipped his quill in the ink, so to speak.

Under the artistic pseudonym "Pricasso", Patch uses his penis to paint portraits, landscapes and female nudes.

"I dip it in the paint and then apply it to the canvas," says the 56-year-old who grew up in England. "I began doing it at a party around Christmas time.

When the canvas became too rough on his "brush", he switched to paper, but has switched to a "smoothed-back canvas … for a better effect".

Artist Creates Sculptures From Bananas

These a-peeling sculptures are sure to make you go bananas. The detailed works of fruity art – featuring the faces of Elvis and Davey Jones from Pirates of The Caribbean – are carved with a toothpick and a spoon. But there’s no room for slip-ups; each piece is completed in about half an hour, before the bananas start to rot.

When the sculptures are complete Japanese artist Keisuke Yamada photographs them and eats them. Since posting pictures of his monkey business online, the 23-year-old has developed a cult internet following and gets new ideas from his fans’ suggestions.

He has made 11 pieces so far, including a dragon and ghoulish skulls. Mr Yamada said: ‘I started making them about two weeks ago and since posting pictures of them online they have really taken off. ‘It began when I peeled a banana and thought it might be interesting to carve a face into the fruit.

‘The first one was the face of someone with a smile. I was surprised by how many people liked it so then I just started making more. ‘People began to suggest ideas and that was what gave me my inspiration.

‘Before I set about sculpting I think long and hard about exactly what I want it to look like. ‘Then I get to work. I want people to think they are interesting and not believe quite what they are seeing. ‘I just use an ordinary toothpick and a spoon from my house. I’m a perfectionist, and a simple design take about half an hour.

‘They can’t take much longer because then the fruit starts to go brown and I enjoy eating them once the work is done and I’ve taken a photo.’ Mr Yamada, an electrician, said: ‘I’m looking forward to making many more in the future.’ (wrapup)

How Advertising Can Be Fun

These are very creative ads for different types of products and services. Silly ad for a bread remind us of the movie “Birds” by Alfred Hitchcock, because of piracy Superman is forced to live on the street, and from the Anagrami’s book, instead of words springing up a three-dimensional “clash”. Three fabulous ads by Greenpeace warn us of disturbing pollution of our planet. As for the environment, there is the anti-smoking ads and ads for fresh and clean drinking water, for the restaurants, engines, condoms… The ads are not only ads in these days, they are great entertainment too, so I suggest you watch them, and try to figure out what they want to say us. Advertise never enough!
