I these surrealist-style paintings very much.

Li Zhanyang (NSFW)
Some readers might find some of these amazing unique sculptures disturbing or
perhaps even sexist, but they reflect the artist's own history and wild
perverted
imagination. These are definitely on the edge.

Cao Wei Hong
These are absolutely charming. I have got get one these. Her oil
paintings feature partially-nude ladies in traditional Ming and Qing era
stylized settings. Coa's female figures remind me of a Chinese Betty
Boop.

Love's Photosets
There are tons photos of mostly beautiful women (That's what I'm interested in
anyway!) in Sol's Flickr photosets.

Shuai Mei
Shuai Mei's paintings are simply wonderful. I just wish her web site
had better organized links to her scanned images. I'd buy one of her
works in a flash, if the price was right! If you want to see the full size
images, use the Google
image search tool.

Bathing in
the Myth (Little Hokum
Rag)
This is a nice set of paintings from the
Balnea Museum, a virtual
museum of bathing and seaside tourism. Why is it I never seem to run
into Nymphs like these?

I think I'm going to order Chinese food tonight. ;-) These are very
sensuous images.

Malanda Art (Malanda)
Malanda is very talented, indeed. I wonder what the lost secrets are
all about?

Ma Yixing
This has got to be ultimate modern China Girl painting. This artist's
paintings are very diverse, but I'm not so crazy about horses.

There are so many wonderful Chinese artists. It's too bad their aren't
better sites display their work in better resolutions at least!

Here is
another site too.

The Ship That Never Came In
This is a fascinating animation from the great underground comix artist
Kim Deitch. At the end
of the animation, you can browse the "lost images", like the one below, from
the Fontaine Fables classics.
Here is a link to his
artwork for sale referenced in the animation. Check out his
Halloween lithograph! Also,
here is Kim's
wonderful entry from the Webcomic Katrina Relief telethon.

Amy Crehore is not only a wonderful
artist, she also has great taste in artists. I found the link above
looking for decent image archive, but in the process also found the
gem below on different site. Also, there are a few more images
here,
here,
and a Japanese site here.

Alberich Mathews (Malanda)
I just love the photograph below!
A Single Misplaced Strand - Wow!

Atsuko Tanaka
Photographer Atsuko Tanaka is unique in her large selection of African America
women as subjects. Her work includes fashion beauties like Vanessa
below, but she also takes photos of women with more natural looking
physiques.

Shinichi
Yamashita
What a wild and poignant imagination this artist has. Is the woman of your
dreams real or just a cleverly constructed robot?

I like these, because they are easy on the ole cerebral cortex.

Shirin Neshat
This Iranian artist gives the observer a glimpse into life of a Muslim
society. Maybe we should try understand people better before we start
bombing them? Don't you think?

Datajunkie, where the heck do you get all of these old sci-fi magazines?

Keitai Girl - Noriko Yamaguchi
"Yamaguchi uses her body to challenge present-day social mores by quite
literally camouflaging herself with materials such as red azuki beans,
golden thumbtacks and silvery cell phone keypads which become a constructed
second skin that acts as a meaning-laden barrier against the world beyond.."

If you are lucky enough to be in Madrid this Summer, you might want to check
