Something to share.






Isn't this awesome? Art by Tony Fitzpatrick. I just recently found him on the Junk Culture blog and had to read through his blog. Not only does he post these great collage works, but he tells a story with each one. There are series on hobos, superpowers, Tokyo and more!

Very cool.
