Cool Down With Ice Cube Jewelry!
I've never been a big fan of diamond rings since almost every girl eventually gets one. I prefer to wear more unique jewelry. I like the pieces that not everyone else has. After reading about the very unusual M3 and M4 rings that Richard wrote about, I was inspired to find even more unique jewelr ...
Seattle’s Gum Wall: Disgustingly Creative Art!
How have I lived in the United States for as long as I have, and I've never heard about this place before now? I've written about Seattle before, after all, Fast Company magazine named Seattle the most creative city of the year in 2009.
However, I had no idea about this infamous Gum Wall until t ...
Paintings of Junk Food: American Culture Illustrated
I'm not sure if I'm writing about this because my friend @Minervity is eating a big 'ol chocolate bar right now, or if it's because I'm hungry, but these paintings of junk food are making my mouth water.
This series of paintings, called "American Still Life," is Pamela Michelle Johnson's way of d ...
Sculptures Made From Rat Poison Packaging
Ok, by now you know that when I come across something that will put your weird shit-o-meter into overdrive, I have to write about it.
I have no experience with rat poison. Well, other than watching it on the classic movie 9 to 5 which I've probably seen twenty times. However, I feel like I've g ...
Up, Up and Away – Colorful Balloon Sculptures
When I was in high school, I worked at a balloon store. Not only did I deliver balloon bouquets all over town, I did it dressed up as a gorilla. Those were good times.
I drove an old beat up 1974 Maverick which I bought for $400. I can only imagine how funny it looked seeing a teenage girl dri ...
A Storm In A Tea Cup – Design Inspiration
I've never heard the expression, "a storm in a tea cup." As the saying goes, apparently when someone is overreacting or creating some sort of drama, they are making a storm in a tea cup.
Even though I'm not familiar with that terminology, I am completely in love with this design. For as long as ...
World War II Double Exposure Photography Is Awesome
Photography is getting more and more advanced, and the motifs are getting ever cooler or creepier. There are no real boundaries with photography ever since we've had the computer as a tool to alter and retouch existing photographs into something that never really was. There have been several occas ...

You’ve Never Seen Eyes Like This Before!
They say that children view the world differently than adults. I agree that this is true. My 9-year-old son constantly amazes me with the way he views the earth, our lives and even his own mind.
He asked me the other day which color in my eyes was my favorite. I simply said, "Henry, I have bro ...
Face Distorting Jewelry – Inspired by Pablo Picasso
According to Turkish designer, Burcu Buyukunal, there is nothing prettier on a lady than her not wanting to look pretty. This face distorting jewelry completely creeps me out, but you have to admit, it has a very Pablo Picasso feel in an artsy kind of way.
Who knows, it's also possible that it i ...

This is a very interes ...
A Huge Mona Lisa Mosaic – Created From Burnt Toast!
I don't know how I became the one that always writes about weird art on Bit Rebels. I guess it's true, the mosquitoes that crashed into the billboards to make beautiful bloody art was a little strange.
Oh, and the embroidered bread, yeah, that was a little weird. You have to admit though; the a ...
How To: Be Alone and Be Happy
This is my 660th article on Bit Rebels. I've had a blast writing every single one of them. Many of those articles feature unique artists that I find inspiring. Many times those artists that view the world just a tiny bit differently than the rest of us are the ones that can inspire us to become b ...
Artist Doodles – Permanent Marker Used to Create Installation
Installation artists never cease to amaze me. They create larger than life works of art. I am a lover of art, and I appreciate everything that is created out of one's imagination. You can see a person's inner thoughts and feelings through their masterpiece. I found a cool installation art (vinyl ...
The Kick Ass Girls of Rock Skateboard Collection
We've written a lot of articles on Bit Rebels about skateboards, but I've never seen any skateboards as fantastic as these before.
Usually the skateboards we see are nice enough. I mean, they are designed well and look cool. However, this collection is on a whole different level!
These decks ...
