A piece of technology goes a long way. This is a USB flash drive is something that has always come in handy. However it is different than your usual usb. It actually serves as a memory card reader. As someone who takes a lot of pictures with a SLR camera I find myself unloading my pictures on various computers. Instead of having to carry my camera and cords and downloading the camera's software just to upload my photos, I can just take the memory card out and place it in this little usb. Convenient and compact- This gadget is a must have by any artist or photographer in need of an easier way to upload their pictures.

Looks can be deceiving. What you see before you looks like a vintage skeleton key. It looks very realistic with the texture, color, and weight. Furnished to look rusted and old most would not think twice when looking at this key.
If you look closely to the top handle of the key, you'll notice how big of an opening there is. One would think it that perhaps it was made that way on purpose for easy holding.
However you come to realize that this is no ordinary skeleton key. It is in fact a bottle opener. It was created to look like another object so that the carrier may be discrete, instead of looking like they constantly carry around a bottle opener.
This bottle opener was designed not just for a beer drinker in mind, but for people of all ages in need of a bottle opener, who would prefer to have a more visually stimulating object to open up their bottles versus a plain ol' bottle opener. Appealing for both its purpose and its design this object fulfills its purpose in more ways than one.

This is a canvas tote bag that I own stylized to represent one of Andy Warhol's paintings called Flowers.
Andy Warhol was one of the greatest artists in american history whose work was released throughout the 60's,70's, and 80's. He started the pop art movement which was visual art inspired by celebrity culture and advertisement that was popular in the 1960's. He worked in many different mediums including paint,film, silk screening, and photography.
The bag is made out of canvas and the front is the silk screened print. To the side is Andy Warhol's signature. Along the straps written is the name of the piece, the year it was created, and where it was created. The whole purpose of this bag is the same as any other tote bag- to carry your belongings in. What is special about this bag however is that it represents a piece of iconic artwork/ Any other bag would be decorated some way or another to seem attractive, however this bag is decorated to draw attention and to pay respects to one of the most influential artists of our time.
