True T-Shirts
Community-centric tee shirt company Threadless.com is asking designers to turn the true stories of their lives into works of art in its latest " Loves" campaign. To help lead the way, Threadless has partnered up with original, personal storytelling site Fray.com, self-publishing site Blurb.com, and the film Stephen Tobolowsky's Birthday Party, written by and starring famous character actor Tobolowsky (Groundhog Day, Deadwood, Heroes) as he tells fascinating stories from his life on-screen and off. Threadless, Fray, Blurb.com and Stephen Tobolowsky are giving submitters the chance to prove that extraordinary things happen to ordinary people, and run wild with this challenge; tell their stories through design. The chosen design could become the cover of Fray's third volume of tales titled "Sex and Death," so the design must incorporate these two topics into its art.  Posted by Megan Call for Entries

I Love Totoro
The Totoro Forest Project is an effort by a group of artists to raise money for The Totoro Forest Foundation created by famed animator Hayao Miyazaki to save this huge urban forest just outside of Tokyo. Miyazaki was inspired by the forest to create the wonderful film " My Neighbor Totoro," (which is in my list of Top 10 all-time faves.) Visit the gallery to see a selection of fun, gorgeous, disturbing images inspired by the forest.  via DrawnPosted by Megan Illustration
