Special 'TEEN WOLF' - Season 3 ♥

'Teen Wolf' Teaser: Check Out Derek's New Digs!

Posted 11 hours ago

"Teen Wolf" fans are some of the most needy--in a good way, of course--in MTV history. Clues about characters and story lines are as crucial to you as H2O, and with Season 3 still months away from its premiere, you've been feeling thirstier than ever. Luckily, executive producer Jeff Davis realizes that sharing is caring, so every week leading up to the kickoff he'll be releasing one teaser about the upcoming episodes. Check out the latest below!

Spiral staircase? Exposed brick? He must pay some serious rent!

A werewolf has to hang his fur somewhere. And Derek's new pad is nothing short of bacheloriffic. Here's what executive producer, Jeff Davis, has to say about the new wolf homestead:

"The loft will not only be the location for numerous werewolf confrontations, but will also provide for a far more romantic side to Derek. When a character grows and takes on a new attitude and lets in new feelings, it helps to have the setting change as well."

Ooh la la, romantic side, you say? Any ladies that get taken back here are in for a treat!

Pop art created with blood and urine

January 30th, 2013

If Brazilian visual artist Vinicius Quesada says that he puts a piece of himself into every piece of art he creates, it will actually be true—his collages are made using paint that have been infused with his own blood and urine.

His striking series of artworks—aptly entitled “Blood, Piss, Blues”—is rendered predominantly in red, which means that quite a bit of blood went into them.
