Little worlds inside paper rolls

The artist Anastassia Elias uses manicure scissors and a cutter to carve tiny paper shapes of the same color as the roll. She aims to create the illusion that the paper shapes are part of the roll. Afterwards she carefully arranges the paper animals, men, trees, forms and objects inside of the round shape with a tweezer so that they won´t overlap each other and to make best use of the incidence of light. Elias is 36 years old and studied philology and journalism, she lives in Paris and works as a full-time artist and illustrator, focusing mainly on paper collages and paintings.

High-Speed Photography

Punch

That's definitely not the way to make a punch drink but it looks so great, we'll let it slide. This fantastic photo was taken by Bhumi Joshi.

Kiwi

We're not sure if it's water or Sprite that the kiwi is being dropped into but either way, it's making us thirsty!

Paint Drink

Pouring paint out of a glass has never looked so fun.

Glass

Everybody breaks a glass from time to time, but it's never quite looked so cool.

Aces

When you slow it down, it makes you wonder how anyone can be accurate enough to shoot through something as small as a card, much less rip it in half!

Blue

Believe it or not, that is a balloon popping and not a huge splash of paint. Photographed by the talented Thomas Hawk, this is one of the many high-speed shots of balloon popping in his collection!

Scrambled Eggs

Terence T.S. Tam's collection of high-speed photography is complete with this brilliant shot of an egg being shot by an airsoft gun.

When the BRAIN decide to make ART

Unbelievable Examples of Forced Perspective

Forced perspective is one of the easiest camera illusions.

By playing with distance and perspective, you can trick the eye.

Forced perspective isn't just for still images, Look at this animated picture.

This photo was taken in the 1930's. The subject is Flickr user John Robinson's uncle. John posted this picture in October 2006. It's one of the images that sparked the internet's interest in forced perspective. Today it's a runaway meme.

Drawing Steps from A-Z

Old Woman Face - Drawing Steps

Soft pastel, pencil & charcaol .. On A4 paper

To see the final result CLICK HERE

- Starting with an HB,2B & 2H pencils we draw the outline, you may do like me and

make some shade and shadow; I like to do that to see how it would be after coloring.

  - This step is just about putting the basic colors for wide

spaces like skin and hair, In this case I used the soft pastel colors.

- Then color the shaded area with charcoal and black pastel chalk, you can

see the big difference because of the shade and shadow, that makes the volume. 

- Smudging the colors (I don't use smudge tool, just my finger or a brush),

Then adding the lights (usually by the eraser), Then finally

adding details and some sharp lines to make it look more realistic.

- Semi final step, Emphasising the colors, shadow and lights and give

it more contrast, Note: when you draw a white skin; you must

add some red and pink effects It gives the life for the drawing.

- The Final Retouch, And It's ready :)

Surrealism Photography

Also in the photography we can see Surrealism art.

The aim of surrealism is to "resolve contradictory conditions of dream and reality."

Artists painted unnerving, illogical scenes with photographic precision, created strange creatures from everyday objects and developed painting techniques that allowed the unconscious to express itself.

Surrealist works feature the element of surprise, unexpected juxtapositions and non sequitur.

With this Clocks you can remember Dali's artwork.
