A Week in Art #7

I am going to try something different this week.

Posted at LEGO Express

This picture was posted at LEGO Express on tumblr. Imagine everything you could ever imagine, made with legos. I found this tumblr user from the top tumblr's of the week. I was looking through and some of these are just insane. Give it a look, and a follow if you are a tumblr user.




Another tumblr blog I found was Unhappy Hipsters. This blog posts people with modern artwork, sweet looking houses, and just random pieces of architecture. This blog shows some crazy images of houses that people have. I have gotten many ideas for when I want to build a house. Just looking through these pictures will make you have a different view and appreciate art that much more.

For this week, that is it. As you can see, I focused more on websites then a particular artist.
Untill next week,
LLIOF.

Don't forget to follow LLIOF on tumblr, at Keeaythekuroneko.

A Week in Art #6

This week I have some pretty cool pictures, like I'd like to think I always do. This week is music themed


Blind music by Gnato

Another amazing peice of art by Gnato. This piece I love because of just how it is shot, with the vinyl on the floor in patterns, and the model's placement. Truly amazing piece of work.


Music on my mind by MyTearzRunBlack

This piece is also very amazing. I love the different sized vinyl to represent the thought bubbles.

I know the descriptions are short, but I want you to interpret the art, not me.

A Week in Art #5

This seems to be all I post now a days. I apologize. But sometimes pictures speak louder then words.

In this week, I have decided to dedicate it all to color, or colour as the british spell it. I had a sudden inspiration in Chemistry to make a giant scale of color, while it may not be perfect, it was very elaborate. Here is that picture. I laid out well over 150 color pencils across the span of three school desks. Here are my favorite works of art. Click the name by the picture to see more work from each artist.


Rainbow Shower by Cavalera

This work of art is amazing. I simply love the depth and detail put into this picture, and the colors that are used in it. I have had this picture for a while and I am ecstatic about finally being able to use it.


Christmas Lights by o0-JynnanTonnyx-0o

Originally, this was not the picture I was going to post here. After looking through 3000+ photos, I decided this one was a great 2nd choice. Something as easy as christmas lights are a great portrayal of color. From extravagant displays of light, to even simple strands around the trees. Sadly, all of these are put up but once a year. Maybe that is why winter is one of the most beautiful seasons.

A Week in Art #4

This week I have some interesting pictures for you all.

Not sure who this is by.

This was a picture tweeted by Sean Ryan. It is a figure of people, with lights streaming out of their eyes to represent tears. I found this simply amazing and a very unique piece of art. I would love to see more work like this.


Castro Condo by Rodgers Architecture

I found this through Shape+Colour on twitter. This house features a suspended bed, and many other great architectural feats. I have seen something like this before, but never actually seen it look this clean in a house. Here is the link to more of the house.

A Week in Art #3

Since it is a new year, I decided to post some new age designs and such.

Wave Door by Matharoo Associates

The door is a 17 foot tall door made from 40 pieces of Burmese teak. The door uses a counterweight, 80 ball bearings and 160 pulleys to work. I find the design and just overall look of this door amazing. I really would like to see it in person. For more info and pictures go to Billionaire Boys Club Blog's post about it, or the Matharoo Associates website.


Sophie by Atelier Xavier Veilhan

This piece of art is just amazing. It is a giant statue of a girl, one of his friends, that he made. This is not just the torso. this statue was actually built through the floor, from the floor below. To see more pictures of the project, go to the page on his website here. Also, check out the other work by Veilhan at Veilhan.net.

Those are just two things I have found recently. Stay tuned for the next A Week in Art.

A Week in Art #2

Sorry about the lack of updates. Finals suck.


Here now, is A Week in Art number two.


just light by Gnato

r h by Gnato


These two pictures above have been taken by the Deviantart user of Gnato. He has been one of my favorites for a good time now. His shots just capture the pure beauty and colors in the world. His photography skills are amazing. Possibly one of the best I have ever seen. Check out all of the work on his page.


Running by hiimlucifer


The picture above comes from another Deviantart artist, that goes by the name of hiimlucifer. Another stunning photographer. The pictures she takes have such a depth to them.

Anyways, thats it for this week in art.

A Week In Art #1

While I have been finishing up my semester in school, I've been rather busy. I decided to take the time out of my schedule to post up a blog.


I have found some pretty cool pieces of art most recently.




The first work of art is from Liu Bolin. An artist who makes a statement by camouflaging himself into an artwork to represent his environment. That was a sketchy description. Just watch the video over on yahoo. I find his artwork very interesting. My girlfriend actually told me about his work today. I hope to see more of it.




Yet another piece of art found from +KN. These are the stairs at Juliard. I found these very cool, of how they combined the leisure and relaxation of lounging, into a staircase, which is usually not though of that way.






I found this picture on tumblr through Shape+Colour. He was following one of the users who linked to this picture. I thought it was pretty cool.
It was the winner of the National Geographic's International Photography Contest 2009. I was also surprised to learn that this picture was not photoshopped at all.

That is all of the really cool art I've found this week. More art next week for A Week In Art #2
