Steampunk by Dr Brassy

Steampunk is Art that is lived. Steampunks aka "Makers" are busy making, remaking, taking apart or putting together-SOMETHING. I consider Steampunk to be a lifestyle. They are the smartest and most interesting people I know. Goodbye plastic mass-produced factory pieces. Hello treasures that last a lifetime made of brass, glass and wood. Take some very passionate Neo-Victorian Ladies and Gentlemen, add technology, a splash of rum, send them to Pirate school and what do you get? A Steampunk!

My favorites are her Steampunk Gothic Evil Eyes. The wire wrapping is meticulous, the eyes are all hand painted and no two are like. They are....breathtaking. This is my current favorite:
