Dirty Car Art

20120126009

Why hasn’t anyone thought of the good idea before? Created on the back windows of dirty cars, Scott Wade’s collection of dirty pictures (they’re not dirty, actually) look just so wonderful that you even don’t want to wash your dirty cars anymore.

Interactive Painting

20120125044

A painting is no longer something always keeping still: Scott Garner’s “Still Life” is rightly a painting that can respond to real-world activity. Whenever you rotate the painting, you’ll see that the fruits and vases begin to tumble and finally change their positions. Why? Because the painting is actually made using the game developing program unity 3D, and inside the painting there is a flat-screen television screen with a spatial sensor built behind it to detect the tilt. So whenever somebody rotate its frame, the unity 3D scene can then respond and interact with the users.

Painting Made with Light and Plexiglass Airplanes

68027542

Sometimes, you eyes may deceive you… This painting on the wall, for example, will completely disappear as soon as you turn off the light. Why and what happened? The truth is: the painting is actually created by the light and the plexiglass airplanes hanging from the ceiling. It’s very surprising, coz we really cannot figure out how the light and those planes managed to draw a painting on the wall. But the result is astonishingly fantastic: it’s so wonderful-looking that I really want to build one in my house.

Play with Soot, and Create Awesome Paintings

20120118001

Fantastic! Who would ever believe that these paintings by French Canadian artist Steven are created using a flame from a candle or torch, if without the video that tells us the truth? Actually, Steven has been working with his unique drawing technique for more than 10 years, during which he has created both monochromatic and colorful paintings, both small-sized and large images. To begin drawing, he firstly uses a candle or torch to leave some soot on a piece of thick paper, and then manipulates the soot with certain tools to develop breathtaking images. The final artworks, just as shown here, not only remain the trails of soot, but also feature stunning details, demonstrating a mysterious and marvelous world constructed with imagination and outstanding skills.

Incredible 3D Fish Paintings

20120112001

Can you figure out whether these fish are true or fake, if without a closer observation (in fact I don’t think observation can work to tell us the truth this time…)?  Really good work, these fish are actually three-dimensional paintings created by Japanese artist Riusuke Fukahori. Each piece consists of multiple transparent layers, with realistic fish painted on them after each layer of liquid resin becomes solid. Rightly by repeating that process, the artist could finally bring us so incredible 3D paintings.

Chay Su and Rika Lin’s new bags seem just like drawings but they don’t – they are real for parties, dates, and other occasions. With a vivid name of “Jump From Paper”, these bags are firstly designed with illustrations drawn on paper, and then made into three-dimensional ones that look the same as paper drawings. Fantastic.

A really great artist can create wonderful things almost anywhere – on walls, grounds, lips, eyelids, or on book pages.

Etched Leather Artwork

20110513101

Can you believe it that Mark Evans creates these amazing leather art works with only knives, scalpels and some special waxes? I believe that, because within the field of art there’s nothing impossible. What indeed surprised me is the fact that the artist is so young- too young for us to believe that he would devote weeks and months on merely one piece of work! But correspondingly, the payoff is worthwhile- here’s numerous praise from the world for Mark. [Read the rest of this entry...]
