All dogs poop, even if they are imaginary and only exist in cartoons. The evidence is in the illustration above. You can buy it as a print at society6.

I thought it was so cool, specially because it features Snoopy, which is and always be one cool dog.

The video was directed by Guy Aroch for Free People’s April 2011 catalogue. The model is the lovely and beautiful 26 years old Sasha Pivovarova, born in Moscow in 1985, and conquering the world in 2011.

I was thinking you might be looking for some cool things to look at today while wasting your time instead of working. So I’m going to do you a favor, and give you seven links to seven photographers’ sites that I happen to like.

I’m not sure if the photo on top left is by Paulina Persson or Sarah Bolmsten. The thing is they are both photographers, and their site showcases their collective work. Whatever, right? in the end, you should go to the site of Sarah and Paulina and check out the work of these two talented photographers based in Scockholm.

The photo on top right was taken by anndrogyn (her real name is a bit hard to write). She’s a russian photographer I found at flickr, and I love her work, so go check out her photos, they are pretty cool.

Below, a photo by Honer Akrawi, a really great fashion and editorial photographer from Stockholm.

Let’s continue with Eliot Lee Hazel (photo below). I love the vintage style and surreal feeling of his work. I think you are going to like it, too, so go check out his portfolio site.

That’s not all. I have three more photographers for you to check out: first, the photography of 23 years old french photographer Flore Mounier. Then we continue with New York based photographer Maggie Harrsen.

And I’ll end my post mentioning a fantastic, trully fantastic fashion photographer, Gilbert Francois, who’s done work for magazines like Elle, H Magazine, Avant-Garde, Cosmopolitan, among others. You have to go to his site and look at his photos.

That’s it. Seven photographers.

After the break, totally unrelated: Stockholm StreetStyle – Dorothea Barth Jorgensen.

I like advertising done this way. Gatorade partnered with artist Kevin Peterson to create art featuring the Gatorade logo under the theme of “Go All Day”. The video shows the illustration process from start to finish, which makes for a sweet viewing experience, ending with a pretty cool piece of art.

This is one of a series of artist collaborations (check out another one with Jeff Proctor, and Jason Burns).

Once you are done watching the video, go to Kevin Peterson’s portfolio site  to check out some of his art.

It’s Olivia Wilde’s turn today. I have a bunch of photos I haven’t been able to add to the gallery. It’s becoming sort of a job lately, trying to add them all.

Today, I happened to upload about 134 photos (in 13 albums) of this gorgeous 17 year old actress. There are photos of her from GQ, Maxim, Vanity Fair, and other magazines. So, if you want to see some cool photos of Olivia Wilde, go check them all out at the gallery.

She looked amazing in Tron:Legacy, and now I’m looking forward to see her in Cowboys & Aliens. She definitely needs to appear in more movies… and more magazine photo-shoots.

Bonus: buy the Tron: Legacy two-disc BD Blu-ray/DVD combo</A< p>

After the break, an interview with Olivia Wilde about the Tron suits.

Gabriel Moreno is an illustrator, engraver and painter based in Madrid.  He’s a true artist and his style is absolutely awesome (at least I think it is), as shown in the illustrations above.

If you want to see more of his art, go visit his portfolio site. You can also follow him on twitter.

Bonus: Black Swan (crazy cool photo)

I guess you wouldn’t mind me updating the gallery with some photos of the beautiful Israeli model Bar Refaeli, would you? These are photos from 2009, but I don’t care. I know you’ll like them.

So, let’s start. First, go check the photos of Bar Refaeli for Elle Magazine, after that, go see more photos of her for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, 2009. If that’s not enough, there are more photos of Bar Refaeli for Rampage Fashion Line, so go look at them. There are a few photos from some random photoshoot, and, the best for the end: Hurley’s ad campaign featuring Bar Refaeli in a black bikini.

Bonus: Charlize Theron for GQ Magazine.

Today will be simple, because I love pretty photos, and pretty models. Here you have some cool photos by talented fashion photographer Henrik Bulow. I don’t really know who the models are, but they are gorgeous, and the photos are just great.

There are more photos after the break. That’s it. It’s friday, I’m out of here!

This is a nice surprise for me, as I’m a Disney fan (I love Disney’s animated movies). Here we have some real life celebrities transformed into famous Disney characters for the Disney Dream portrait series. Annie Lebowitz was the photographer in charge of making this images a reality.

Above, “where a moment of beauty lasts forever”, we have Penelope Cruz as Belle and Jeff Bridges as the transformed prince reenacting the final scene of Beauty and The Beast.

Below, Olivia Wilde is the Evil Queen, joined by Alec Baldwin as the spirit of the magic mirror from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. And finally, Queen Latifah takes the role of Ursula from The Little Mermaid.

This video really caught my attention during my daily searching for cool stuff and the meaning of life on the internet. The video is for the song Where Dream & Day Collide performed by the band Madder Mortem. The music is not bad. The video is absolutely awesome and inspiring.

It was directed by Christian Ruud and Kim Holm. Kim Holm is a designer and motion graphics artist who has a fantastic portfolio. Check out his videos at vimeo, and then go to his flickr account.

Bonus: Daniela Uhlig’s art, and Catherine Lu’s art.

Just because they are cute.

Scarlett Johansson appears in Vogue China this April. What can I say that you don’t know? She looks lovely and beautiful, so if you get a chance, buy the magazine. The photos are in black and white, which is a plus, because I love black and white photos. Check out all the photos at the gallery.

A little unrelated, Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray made me fall in love with Tokyo in Lost in Translation; so much, that it was one of the main reasons I decided to travel there in 2007. That’s why Japan has a big place in my heart, and it saddens me to see the problems they’re having right now. If you can, donate money to the Red Cross to help with the disaster relief efforts.
