Movie :: Coraline

speaking of Coraline, here is the trailer. Im obsessed with everything in it. the animation. the music. the hilarity of the secondary characters. please go see it. Coraline 3-D or bust.

Artist :: Camile Rose Garcia

"Camille Rose Garcia was born in 1970 in Los Angeles, California and grew up in the generic suburbs of Orange County, visiting Disneyland and going to punk shows with the other dissenchanted youth of that era. Her paintings of creepy cartoon children living in wasteland fairy tales are critical commentaries on the failures of capitalist utopias. Creative influences include Phillip K. Dick, William Burroughs, Henry Darger,Walt Disney, as welll as politically aware bands like The Clash and Dead Kennedys."

I couldnt have thought it, or said it better. That was from her website. which is awesome." go check it.
