V.O.W N°48 // The 3.2 Million Ink Dots Portrait. Photo © Miguel Endara V.O.W N°48 (Video Of the Week, 5 - 11 December 2011) The making of ''Hero'', is a drawing commemorating Miguel Endara's father in a picture. The drawing is composed entirely out of 3.200.000 ink dots.
The time, effort, commitment to the piece shows the importance of the father in the artist's life and the numeration of each dots shows the energy invested in the piece. By using Stippling or pointillism technique, it gives the piece a rich texture and great granulation. This week's V.O.W. is a beautiful short film by American designer Miguel Endara that shows craft, technique and love.

Beautiful/Decay Cult of the Creative Arts | Artist Book Series + Daily Art And Design Blog And Creative Community. I couldn’t help but direct everyone to fellow public art loving blog Street Art Utopia as they have compiled a pretty decent list of the best street art of 2011. If you are just getting into the wonderful world of pasting, spraying or making the streets a more creative place, this list is a great place to start (short of Wall and Piece). One of the best things about this genre is it’s diversity – you can decided what you find gimmicky/twee or meaningful and awe-inspiring. Street art has always been the public’s voice, and the art world has yielded success to those with great ideas and a call for change. More from the list after the jump!
