These paintings, by Clare Caulfield, are so eye-catching and full of life!

She is fascinated by architecture be it the Midtown skyscrapers of Manhattan, The Grand Canal Venice or simply capturing Parisian life outside a brightly canopied pavement café, from which she strives to create spontaneous lively linework.

Wow, just spectacular pieces by Studio Lindfors

Called Aqualta, the project is an exquisitely produced tour of a hydrologically transformed metropolis. Gondolas float through a still-blazing Times Square; people fish atop gravel banks that have built up beside inundated skyscrapers; and an aerial network of blimps, catwalks, pedestrian skyways, and cable cars passes and sways above the Venetian streets.

I really admire artists that do their thing just to put a smile on your face. Philip Lumbang paints these adorable bears all over the east side of L.A. View a fun video about a large-scale mural he recently did, on Boing Boing.

Taken from Union Square. I was amazed by how the skyline looked like an immaculate painting! Happy weekend!

What a beautiful video, of Picasso’s Guernica in 3D, created by Lena Gieseke. (Neat sidenote, for those in Georgia: created while at UGA.)

This 3D rendering of Picasso’s Guernica offers a similar experience. The actual spatial immersion into a painting is a powerful way to prompt contemplation of its many facets. My project is not only a creative piece of work on its own; it stands in a larger context. It provides the unusual opportunity to view the painting from a unique perspective, revealing aspects that would normally stay hidden from the casual viewer. When we discern the original painting in this three-dimensional reproduction, we recognize which features most significantly constitute the painting. Consequently this three-dimensional exploration of Picasso’s Guernica is an innovative technique for comprehending and appreciating the original masterpiece.
