Adult coloring books are all the rage… but it’s because grown-ups enjoy the challenge of staying inside the lines, not necessarily because the subject matter is rated-r.
The Sausage Party Coloring Book, based on the animated movie, is definitely not your kids’ coloring book. The actual coloring part appears easy enough. However, the subject matter is R, WTF and NSFW… all the letters. Available here.

Anyone who’s sat through an art history class, can tell you that they more or less suck. So, these Art History Lollipops make perfect sense.
Brought to us by LIQNYC, the six handmade lollies are made with pure cane sugar, and come in cherry or cotton candy flavor. View the Mona Lisa, American Gothic, Starry Night and others in between licks.
Bring a few for your art history professor, and perhaps they’ll let you go home early. Find out more here.

Coffee, a wonderful start to the day, is also a popular art medium. Now, coffee has graduated from analog to digital, with the Coffee Drip Printer.
Brought to us by Ted Kinsman, the printer borrows from the technique of pointillism. Dispensing its ‘ink’ one drop at a time in varying sizes, along with coffee’s natural hues, give each print its tonal qualities.
Although, any colored liquid can be used to create some point-art, coffee would be better for anyone looking to lay down some earth tones. I hear that drinking coffee ink will also help make mornings tolerable.

Before food was in high-def, as we see it today, it was all pixelated… True story. Apparently, artist Toshiya Masuda remembers 8-bit foodstuffs, and has created a brilliant art series, titled Low Pixel CG.
Masuda’s food and everyday objects are made from ceramic, with additional pixels painted in. Masuda refers to this merging of media as “image gap,” where the analog transitions into the digital. Check out more here.

Ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall, ninety-nine bottles of beer… drink one down, scratch it off the wall… everybody sing!
That song will never get annoying, as long as you have a 99 Bottles of Craft Beer On The Wall Poster. Brought to us by Pop Chart Lab, the interactive poster is a giant scratch-off.
So, the drinker can keep track of all the beers they’ve enjoyed. Singing is optional, but highly encouraged.
