Mark Ryden Sweet Wishes is not so Sweet

Sunday, July 20, 2008
Mark Ryden is know for his subtle, multi-meaning, finely-crafted pop-nostalgic paintings. He is one of the great modern-day lowbrow artists - and that's a fact whether or not you are one of his bazillions of fans or not.

Sweet Wishes is his new project which is a co-lab with his artist girlfriend Marion Peck. And sorry, it doesn't cut it.

Have a look for yourself, but to me its just boring, badly executed, creepy (in-a-bad-way) and a bit gross. Oh, and the song is just annoying.

* Are you wondering "is that bear below there vomitting?" ... ummm , yes.
