Lorenzo Duran - Designaside.com - StumbleUpon 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.

Ethereal Digital Paintings Capture The Look Of Loneliness | The Creators Project - StumbleUpon Loneliness never looked so depressingly good. Variations of glittered deformations form the basis for a grotesquely beautiful motif in the works of Japanese artist 非(xhxix). Digitally sketching, drawing, and painting everything using Photoshop alone, 非 visualizes loneliness in his subjects and decorates them with scars, layers of geometric abstractions and floral imagery. As most of his subjects are young men, the artist explains that “boys are more suitable to express loneliness as women are emotional and powerful.” Concocting images of isolated pain and an ethereal sadness into haunting depictions of young western men, 非 reveals a mystified insight into the depths of the Japanese psyche.

The human flamingo: Painted sculptures of naked women who donソt mind being called birds Updated: 21:52 GMT, 17 February 2012 Drawing the human figure is a skill that most artists attempt to master during their careers. But Gesine Marwedel has taken that idea one stage further in putting together her unique 'body' of work - by transforming live models into human canvases. The German speech therapist, 24, studied Rehabilitation Science at university where she learnt how to help sick children through creative therapies such as art and music. Art imitating life: A model painted and posed to resemble a flamingo demonstrates Gesine's unusual technique Fluorescent finish: This model was covered from head to toe in a swirling, abstract pattern She now paints in her spare time and enjoys working on a variety of different surfaces, including the human body and more conventional canvas. Landscape with nude: This model's body was used to depict a frozen nocturnal scene Bird of a feather: This model is transformed into a swan taking flight
