According to the New York Times, a portrait of Robert Pattinson done in a mosaic style is being featured at a New York art show. The piece is entitled Twilight Feelings.
“Is collage inherently subversive? This strenuously lively group show, organized by Paper magazine’s Carlo McCormick, suggests so.
The mischievous tone is set by Mark Flood’s “Twilight Feelings” (2010), a distorted, mosaic-style portrait of the vampire-franchise heartthrob Robert Pattinson. Using multiple copies of the same photograph, Mr. Flood gives the actor a giraffelike neck and sharply protruding chin.”
The show is at 527 West 23rd Street in Chelsea Through Aug. 27

There is no word in the article if the portrait is for sale, or the exact meaning of the artist. What do you think about the work?

E! Meet Edward Cullen, The Pussy
Just when you think you’ve seen it all.
It was a year ago when Robert Pattinson, while promoting New Moon at Comic-Con, said he doubted he’d ever perform his music at an open-mic night because he’s “too much of a pussy.”
It seems like someone may have taken that a bit too literal. Spotted last night in New York City was Edward Cullen…the pussycat!
No, it’s not a new breed of feline. The hairless wonder was dressed as Bella’s bloodsucking beau for the 15th birthday party for Matilda, the resident cat at the legendary Algonquin Hotel.
It’s a tradition. Matilda’s big day is always celebrated with a cat show featuring kitties donning fashions from Meow Wear and a fundraiser for the North Shore Animal League.

Water For Elephants extra is impressed with the skills of Robert Pattinson
WFE extra, Patrick Donahue, in his roustabout PJs, had some kind things to say about Rob:
I was greatly impressed with Rob on two counts; one, he can switch accents between takes so fast! He’d talk in his British dialect while not working, and go right back into his American, and you’d never know he was acting it. He also was great with taking stunt falls. I watched as he was thrown off a train platform in a fight scene a good dozen-plus times, some of which he landed square on his back. But he took it and just rolled with it. Great stuff.

Jackson Rathbone Fansite Interview
The folks over at Jackson Rathbone Online have a 20 question Q & A with Jackson on Twilight, his music, the Last Airbender and more.
“The last time we spoke with you, you had only one tattoo at the time. Fast forward to a few years later, you now have 6 according to a recent interview with Saturday Night Magazine. What are your new tattoos and what do they mean to you?
Actually, it’s seven now… They all mean a whole lot to me, but I don’t know how fully I want to describe them… I have a heart for my mom, a hammer for my dad, a tattoo for the late great Spencer Bell, as well as two for my late grandparents, my first tattoo, “I’m lost”, and my newest is my family motto, “suaviter et fortiter”.
You have two films coming out the same week, how does it feel to have completed two films directed toward two very different fan bases?
It’s a mark of how I want to keep shaping my career. Keep it moving, change it up, always make it fresh for myself and the audience as well.
How did it feel to step into Sokka’s shoes for the very first time?
Pretty damn comfortable. Kinda like leather slippers.
At Newcon you revealed you originally auditioned for the role of Zuko for Airbender. Are you glad you were chosen for Sokka instead?
I think Dev plays an amazing Zuko and I had a lot of fun with the character of Sokka. I’m also excited to get to delve into Sokka’s development as a warrior and strategist… that is, if we get the next two films greenlit. Here’s to hope!”
