Silva Pen Portrait

Silva Portrait

These are not photographs. This is an amazing portrait drawn by 29-year-old Portugal-based attorney Samuel Silva based on a photograph. Silva’s medium of choice is standard Bic ballpoint pens on paper and this particular portrait uses eight different colors, taking some 30 hours to complete.  Silva says art is just his “hobby”. You can see many more of Silva’s drawings here.

If Halloween is one of your favorite holidays, now is the perfect time to start thinking about some of the little details that make a great party. Food, drinks and decor are some of the areas where creativity really stands out.

This Mad Scientist Halloween Martini is actually called “Frog in a Blender” and is a wild concoction of jello pieces, lemon-lime carbonated beverage, maraschino cherries and does not contain alcohol. For an adult party, add vodka or try your favorite alcohol on a test run before serving to guests to find what works best.

Witchy Splat Halloween Wreath

Wednesday, August 1st, 2012

I don’t remember how many years ago I first saw the flying witch who had gone splat decorations, but I have to say it is by far my favorite and makes me laugh every time I see one. Near my mother’s home town in Illinois, I actually saw one about 15 feet up a telephone pole along the highway. Not sure what they used to get it up there, but I look for it whenever I’m back that way.
