Stumbled upon these laughing, frog-like origami creatures by Joseph Wu:

Joseph Wu's Origami Warai

A professional origami artist who hails from Vancouver, Wu calls these amazingly expressive, adorable, little figures Warai, which means “laughter” in Japanese.

Here are a few of my favorites:

A Red Warai Waving Happily

A Green Warai With Open Arms

A Very Happy Blue Warai

More Of These Happy Fellows

Awesome!

Stumbled onto this interesting, manga/anime-inspired Super Mario Bros. piece by artist Saejin Oh while researching my previous post:

A preview of the entire "Super F-ed Up Bros. World 1-1" piece.

It seems that the original Super Mario Bros. World 1-1 continues to be a source of inspiration for artists everywhere (in this case, South Korea).

Just to warn you, the entire piece is a bit graphic in terms of it’s depictions of highly stylized, over the top violence; to view the entire piece, violent bits and all, click here to go to the artist’s page on deviantART.

(I love the way he incorporates the title screen and card and the cool Starman effect midway through.)
