Francois Robert was at an auction in the mid 1990s and took home three lockers. Two of the lockers were empty, but the third one contained a real human skeleton which must have served as a teaching aid in a science class. Robert realized that his skeleton was limited: it was wired together for display. He traded his skeleton for a disarticulated human skeleton online - a box containing 206 separate bones. Since then, Robert has spent hundreds of hours working with those bones, arranging them painstakingly into striking, iconic shapes, each five or six feet wide, and photographing them. He calls the resulting images “Stop the Violence.”

One of the things that identifies the image of a product is its packaging. Few elements like striking graphics, attractive colors, and unusual shapes are carefully thought of to come up with packaging design that catches the attention of the consumers. A packaging design is a critical component in marketing because it is the packaging that makes it stand from the rest when consumers choose a product from the shelf. We usually see the packaging first instead of an innovative product.

San Francisco-area landscape artist Andreas Amador etches massive sand drawings onto beaches during full moons when his canvas reaches its largest potential. Using only a rake and often several helpers the geometric and organic shapes are slowly carved into the sand, often interacting with the physical topography like the stones in a zen garden. The works exist for only a few moments, just long enough to snap a few photographs before being completely engulfed by the encroaching tide. Amador has also collaborated on a number of killer marriage proposals, the question popped as part of his elaborate drawings viewable from an elevated distance. You can see much more on his website , and he also sells prints . If you liked this, also see the works of Sonja Hinrichsen and Jim Denevan . ( architizer , raymond tham , and the artist’s blog )

Artist Magnus Gjoen - Nightly (Build 20120314031139)
Beane only began sculpting in 2002 and developed his own material, called CX5, to lend even more detail to his hyperrealistic action figure sculptures. The material handles like clay when warm, but is as hard as plastic when it is cool. He is known primarily for his posed action figures. Adam Beane, the rocker sculptor, the talented musician playing music with wax, or sculpting with sound… how ever you want to see him. A multitalented artist… judge for your self…

Rico, despreocupado y profundamente enamorado del arte de la pintura, Santiago Rusiñol llevó una vida bohemia durante muchos años de su vida. Vivió en Montmatre junto a otros amigos pintores, Ramón Casas e Ignacio Zuloaga, viajó cuanto quiso y participó en la fiestas más concurridas de la mejor élite catalana. Pintaba y escribía como el mejor y dictando no solo la moda del modernismo en España, sino el criterio del buen artista, pues experimentó en carne propia los límites del artista, a lo que le ayudó su adicción a la morfina.

From the series of written paper art comes another artist that deals with paper and words. But if Su Blackwell is a reader , Keira Rathbone is a writer. She typewrites all her works of art. At first, if you see her works from a distance (both in real life and on virtual media) nothing strikes you. However, there should but a “Warning! You might drop your jaw if you look closer” sign next to each of her works of art.

Tom Deininger is an artist based in Rhode Island who constructs these beautiful landscape sculptures that are more than meets the eye.
