Juan Francisco Casas e Ballpoint Artworks - Design Atento
Juan Francisco Casas é um artista espanhol de 33 anos que consegue a proeza de fazer impressionantes desenhos realísticos usando apenas a boa e velha caneta Bic azul. O processo é assim: de uma foto digital, Juan amplia a imagem obtida e a transforma em enormes painéis desenhados a mão. E não tem nada de Photoshop. É pura habilidade mesmo. O trabalho desse artista é bem conhecido na Europa e leva o nome de Ballpoint Artworks. Freqüentemente, expõe seus desenhos na Galeria Fernando Pradilla, em Madri.

Mark Khaisman: Brown Tape Art Who says ya can’t make something cool with translucent brown tape. Mixed media artist Mark Khaisman layers several pieces of tape on Plexiglas panels to create these mesmerizing rustic illuminations with textures much like a knife painting with broad wide strokes. Very cool, time lapse like retro, and mysterious… I’ll have to make some myself. (I love tape). I’ll post a bunch of his pieces after the jump.Mark Khaisman webpagevia spluch This entry was posted on Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008 at 9:38 am and is filed under art, fun, ideas, inspiration, materials, style.

How to Make a Baby We made this video using a technique called "pixilation", which is a fancy term for stop-motion animation done with real people instead of puppets. We shot it, frame by frame, with Raquel's Canon DSLR over a period of nine months. Those of you who stopped by our house might have noticed some mysterious tape marks on the floor in the living room. Those were for the camera tripod and our feet. Animating over such a long period of time, using an increasingly pregnant woman as one of your puppets, means basically throwing out everything you might normally do in an animated film. What emerged was a style you might call WYGIWYG: What You Get Is What You Get. This scattershot approach turned out to have a nice side effect: the 360 or so frames of raw footage had hundreds of possible interpretations, depending on how you shuffled the frames. The raw footage was really messy. All of the images you see were captured in-camera.

Wes Lang Artist Wes Lang lives and works from Brooklyn, New York; a short distance from where he was born and raised in New Jersey. His controversial artworks consist of collage, illustration and painting, which meticulously depict Native Americans, birds, buffalos and skulls along side glued clippings from porn magazines and newspapers.
