We know art comes in all sorts of forms, from the grumpy to the banana variety. But something we don't see all-that-often is the kind that uses your own fingers as the canvas.

An artist on Tumblr has given all your favorite Disney characters old-school video game makeovers.

Etch-A-Sketches are one of those childhood toys that never go out of style. If you're like most people, a few hours' worth of entertainment usually produced some pretty bad art, although it never really mattered. But there are the select few who are really good at Etch-A-Sketching. Like, really really good.

The great thing about art is that we can express ourselves in endless ways. Feeling inspired by Grumpy Cat? Paint a detailed portrait of Tardar Sauce-- we won't judge. Or maybe 'Star Wars' gets you all jazzed. Heck, make a Lego scene to reflect those feelings! It's all fun in our books, and we're especially fans of the offbeat type of art, like that of the banana variety.

It's expected to go for $1.8-$2.5 million bucks. Here's

Walking to lunch today in Downtown Billings I found this flyer. They're looking for people who want to photograph butts (or have pictures taken of their butt), blog about butts or paint a fine butt.

Inspired by the movie 'Monsters University,' DeviantArt user Hyung86 decided to portray classic Disney characters as though they were modern day college students. We think these are pretty great. If you'd like to check out more, this is the page where you can find modern depictions of Aladdin, Pocahontas, Ariel and more.

From Friday, April 26, 2013 until Saturday, May 18th, the very awesome Gallery 1988 (West) is hosting The Official Bad Robot Art Experience, a gallery of artwork inspired by wunderkind producer/director/god of all things geek J.J. Abrams.
