Sketches are a very important instrument for me. The sketch often is the fastest way to visualize and record an idea. Yet, sketches are also very precise and with a little bit of extra effort they can quickly contain detailed information on texture, material and shading of the subject. But perhaps the most important point is, that sketching is fun! Here I show you a small collection of sketches that I created over the last few years. It's a colorful mix of fast scribbles and elaborate drawings. All content of this website is copyrighted © Daniel Lieske 2013 - no use without permission

Yuki Matsueda ‘While most designers are busying adding more and more elements into their artworks, Japan-based Yuki Matsueda has, however, managed to let some elements escape from his art pieces. The result seems quite amazing… A vivid 3D image is successfully created and all the elements are believed to be more shocking than those stay still on paper.’ Unbelievable Oil Paintings by Fulvio di Piazza Fulvio Di Piazza was born in 1969 in Siracusa, Italy. He studied at Urbino Art Academy and currently lives in Palermo, Italy. In 2008, Di Piazza participated in the Quadriennale exhibition in Rome.

Saving Private Ryan did that for me, even though I was in the Air Force, it made me realize the reality of fighting a war against an experienced army. The minimalist approach has the ability to make even the smallest things that you may have not noticed the first time seem like the most important things in the movie. Daniel Keane over at WolfCadet.com has created a ton of cool posters making movies into minimalist pieces. The goal as far as I can tell is to get as much emotion out of as little as possible. Everything you see here is available to purchase and there are also a lot more including Seven posters and Shining posters.

Women of All Red Nations The best-known Native American women's organization of the 1970s was Women of All Red Nations (WARN). WARN was initiated in 1978 by women, many of whom were also members of the American Indian Movement which was founded in 1968 by Dennis Banks, George Mitchell, and Mary Jane Wilson, an Anishinabe activist. (12) WARN's activism included fighting sterilization in public health service hospitals, suing the U.S. government for attempts to sell Pine Ridge water in South Dakota to corporations, and networking with indigenous people in Guatemala and Nicaragua. (13) WARN reflected a whole generation of Native American women activists who had been leaders in the takeover of Wounded Knee in South Dakota in 1973, on the Pine Ridge reservation (1973-76), and elsewhere. WARN, like Asian Sisters and Hijas de Cuauhtemoc, grew out of--and often worked with--mixed-gender nationalist organizations.1 Check out their website:

Her porcelain skull sculptures feature meticulous vanilla white curly patterned details, that look like they could be made of coral–or maybe icing. (Mmm?) When Real Babes and Lolis are Turned to Anime Skilled artists of 2ch just made an animazing feat by showing what they're capable of - turning real babes (and lolis) to their anime version. Probably I'm more than light years away to achieve such mastery despite the hardships I've done practicing how to draw anime on paper. I desperately need apprenticeship to a master who knows how to do this! And yes before I forget! Images are clickable for you to enjoy the works of art in high resolution. Starts with Loli ends with Loli :)
