Put your overalls on. Today's Craft Rock Friday is a big colourful double-whammy mess of paint. Get sloppy with Swedish singer Non Tiq 's video for her song "Quiet", then get schooled with OK Go 's "Three Primary Colors" video that they made for Sesame Street.

Every now and then you come across something that is truly unique. I've never before seen anyone paint in 3D... Japanese artist Riusuke Fukahori paints fish on layer upon layer of poured resin, building up each fish slice by slice. The results are incredibly lifelike, even after you know how it was done.  For more photos, check out This Is Colossal , in this Flickr set by Dominic Alves and on the artist's site .

The video for The Avett Brothers ' song, "Head Full of Doubt / Road Fill of Promise" is fascinating. Painted by hand by Jason Ryan Mitcham, the video is a single painting... which Mitcham altered 2600 times. To create 1 second of film, he had to alter the painting 10 times. There's a "making of" video, but it won't play here in Canada. Gah. The link should be in the "related links" at the end of this video though, for those of you Stateside.

Will Smith's daughter, Willow Smith , gets into the Craft Rock Friday spirit by dipping her hair in paint... then whips her hair back and forth. Um, yeah. Willow turns 10 years old this Halloween. And for those of you who, like me, grew up with Willow's dad, here he is circa 1988.

Get your funk on, it's Craft Rock Friday! This fun, trippy, watercoloury video was created for the song, "Baby I'm Yours" by the French band Breakbot . Directed and handmade by Irina Daveka at Wizz Studio , the video is composed of approximately 2,000 watercolors painting placed one after another. A perfect  way to kick off summer.
