Remember the days when we used to go to a party and the moment a butterfly was painted across on our face, we'd marvel at the perfection of the clown lady's work of art? I am referring to little-me at the tender age of 4, but perhaps you thought of a time when you were a tad older. Whatever floats your boat. Well, the butterfly has now been (dramatically) overshadowed by a new event that I . . .
ABSOLUT’ly Open Canvas
ABSOLUT does not just create awesome ads: It also creates awesome campaigns. “Transform Today” happened in Williamsburg last weekend, turning an entire block of North 6th Street into an interactive display of some of New York's finest creative talent. Freshly painted white facades were reworked, grafitti artists gave live demonstrations in alleyways, and there was a display of storefront . . .
If They Could Speak…
David Olenick's art is a perfect illustration (no pun intended) of a whole series of bad decisions, excuses, and basic human behaviour - all with a humourous twist. His designs are cleverly executed with simple drawings and typography, but all the puns and clever wordplay with the quirky cast of characters definitely brings a smile, and perhaps a couple of laughs here and . . .
Art Explosions
I think that all males just have an inclination to blow things up. In fact, all of us tend to have a fascination for it. In the fast-fading memories of my youth, I remember causing a mini explosion in a playground and running away in glee, thinking that we were the coolest kids on the block. We were not.Jon Smith puts his fascination for explosions into something creative, something worthwhile. He . . .
I Drew a Ship
3D ship? Look again. This anamorphic illusion is actually a skewed drawing on three sheets of flat paper. Ramon Bruin, you have some serious skills. via This is Colossal . . .
Jumping Art
That moment of time where the phrase runs true, and where something (or someone) feels so close, yet so far. That's probably how these cards felt in this situation: Japanese artist Yuki Matsueda is a recent graduate from the Tokyo University of the Arts and holds a PhD in design. Instead of deciding to take the ordinary route of using a flat canvas, he used his love for art to do something a . . .
Flying Stuff
That awkward moment when you spill your drink. The whole thing seems to happen in slow motion and before you know it, the contents of your cup are now on your lap (or someone else's). Either way, rapid napkin blotting often does not suffice so you briskly walk to the bathroom and come out with a wet patch that you hope will be unnoticed - normally it's not. That situation might sound familiar to . . .
Draw on the Wall
More street art, for those who like it as much as I do... Russian photographer Alexey Menschikov is at it again! via His Website . . .
Flying Lenses
Vintage cameras and wings. What more could you ask for. I have always had a minor obsession with vintage cameras. Can I use them? No. But I think that they look wonderful and have always fascinated me - note to those who are (for some strange reason) attempting to make a good impression. As for wings, the blog name should say it all... Paul Octavious clearly likes those two things as well, and . . .
Drop
Manchester-based photographer Dave Wood borrowed his friend's Nikon camera four years ago and soon found himself becoming addicted to photography. After having a play with a couple of different styles, he found his weapon of choice: Macro photography. Wood's macro photography focuses on nature (pun not intended) - but not exactly your regular floral, tree trunk or bumblebee. Check this . . .
