Stephen Myles When the details of Peter Roebucks death emerged the same conclusion seemed to be drawn but no one really put down the words on paper. Older relatively wealthy man, connections to an orphanage in South Africa, being investigated by Sex Crimes police over allegations, jumps out of window. If you add a, b and c together you manage to arrive at the same conclusion. Two important things must be considered in relation to the developments. Peter Roebuck was and will remain regarded as a great sports journalist, insightful and well-worded.

Riusuke Fukahori Paints Three-Dimensional Goldfish Embedded in Layers of Resin
First: watch the video. Japanese artist Riusuke Fukahori paints three-dimensional goldfish using a complex process of poured resin. The fish are painted meticulously, layer by layer, the sandwiched slices revealing slightly more about each creature, similar to the function of a 3D printer. I really enjoy the rich depth of the pieces and the optical illusion aspect, it’s such an odd process that results in something that’s both a painting and sculptural. Wonderful.:::::: carnovsky ::::::
RGB’s technique consists in the overlapping of three different images, each one in a primary color. The resulting images from this three level’s superimposition are unexpected and disorienting. The colors mix up, the lines and shapes entwine becoming oneiric and not completely clear. Through a colored filter (a light or a transparent material) it is possible to see clearly the layers in which the image is composed. The filter’s colors are red, green and blue, each one of them serves to reveal one of the three layers.

Paul Cadden's Hyperrealistic Drawings Made with Graphite and Chalk | Oddity Central
Paul Cadden is a Scottish-born hyperrealist artist who creates painfully realistic artworks using only graphite and chalk. I’ve posted some pretty realistic drawings in the past, like Rajacenna’s detailed celebrity portraits , Juan Francisco Casas’ photo-like ballpoint pen drawings , or Paul Lung’s pencil artworks , but the pieces you’re about to see are on a whole other level. Using simple materials like graphite and white chalk, Paul Cadden is able to replicate complex photos down to the tiniest details. Whether it’s the countless wrinkles on an old man’s face, the smoke from a lit cigarette or the water dripping from someone’s face, he makes it look unbelievably realistic. “Although the drawings and paintings I make are based upon a series of photographs, video stills etc, the art created from the photo is used to create a softer and much more complex focus on the subject depicted, presenting it as a living tangible object.received, and instead, portray the iconic doll in varied representation in order to appreciate concepts of both antiquated and modern beauty.

Beautiful/Decay Cult of the Creative Arts
Polish illustrator Łukasz Belcarski mixes the grotesque, the kinky, and the unusual to create his series of works better known as Cumformers . More dark and bizarre fun after the jump! Good buddy and painter extraordinaire Alison Blickle turned me onto the work of Christoph Ruckhäberle the other day and my mind was immediately blown.These paintings are completely bizarre and incredibly beautiful. Everything from the choice of color, the abstraction of the human body, and the strange vintage imagery sets it aside from work that you see on most gallery walls! Polish pixel wizard Adam Martinakis’ digital illustrations are out of this world.I'm ceaselessly impressed with this dude. This piece, involving a real elephant, was the centerpiece of an exhibition in , called “Barely Legal.” When asked about it, the elusive artist had this to say: "The show is about the elephant in the room, the problems that we don't talk about. The fact that 10 billion people live below the poverty line.
