Lorenzo Duran. L’artista spagnolo Lorenzo Duran si avvale delle foglie come tela per le sue incisioni. Dopo il lavaggio e l’essiccazione, rimuove con precisione chirurgica ed estrema cura i segmenti in eccesso, usando una tecnica simile a quella del tradizionale paper cutting. Quest’ultimo passo è ovviamente il più difficile vista la fragilità del materiale scelto, il risultatò di questo processo è una serie di affascinanti disegni geometrici incredibilmente belli e dilicati.

Sayings-23.jpg (JPEG Image, 640x479 pixels) Works by John Kenn. John Kenn has risen to the single most popular artist on Escape into Life with over 200,000 visitors to a single page. The comments on his work keep flooding in with opinions on whether the works are original or derivative.

Many have pointed to the influence of Maurice Sendak and Edward Gorey. With the little biographical information we have about Kenn, he was born in Denmark in 1978. He writes and directs television shows for kids. He makes his monster drawings on Post-it notes, and says, “It is a little window into a different world, made on office supplies.” Visit John Kenn’s blog See more of John Kenn’s work on this site. Stunning Self-Portraits by a 17-Year-Old (18 photos) Like Valerie Chiang or Kalie Garrett, Alex Stoddard is one of those talented teenage photographers who knows how to express themselves. His self-portraits are all incredibly unique and after viewing them you're left wondering where he's going to take you next.

What I enjoy most is that you can almost feel his passion come through. His commitment to not only executing on an idea but doing it well, is apparent to anyone who sees his photos. I got in touch with Alex to ask him a few questions, including how his style evolved while taking on the 365 project. (That is, to shoot and share one picture each day.) Read that interview below after enjoying his very creative self-portraits. What have you learned from your 365 project? Your photos are all beautifully artistic. I see that you're friends with Rosie Hardy. How has Flickr helped you develop your style? Are there any quotes you live by? Thanks for the interview, Alex. Check out more of Alex's incredible photos on his Flickr page.
