Creepy things indeed...

During my usual Internet adventures this week I came across a blog by Vonwoof. She bills herself as an art director by day and a freestyle crochet queen by night but I'm afraid it is not her skills that initially caught my eye.

A post on Monday featured the work of an artist called Meryl Smith entitled "creepy things with leather" and that does indeed describe what came next.

It seems Smith has made a series of leather sculptures made in a unique "tongue in cheek" style but which certainly have an impact. There's a more light hearted "Don't Hog the Ball" featuring a pig with markings like an American Football but I think the one that really got me is "Excessory baggage" featuring a chihuahua dog covered in a very recognisable style of branding and handles.

You can see what I'm talking about here. Trust me, it's worth a quick look
