Anahata Katkin: I recently salvaged this image from my stash of paintings. The face had gotten too cartoon-ish for me and I was feeling like giving up on her at the time. She was surrounded by tropical lillies at first but since has been reborn. I brought her back from Belize and decided to suck it up and put some cold weather gear on her. Like me she's a tropical transport. Francoise Nielly’s colorful portraits Francoise Nielly is the canvas painter who creates this amazing colorful and massive portraits.

Maybe it’s because he is relatively new on the scene, but also maybe it’s because there is no need for much talking, there is no need for words, because sometimes, like Tarkovsky used to say it, they are flaccid. Belarusian painter Leonid Afremov is one of the most colorful painters you’ve never heard of. The artist Leonid Afremov was born in Vitebsk, Belarus in 1955– the same town where Mark Chagall was born. Leonid was building up his experience by painting a lot with oil and participating in various exhibitions.After discovering that only communist propaganda posters would sell in the Soviet Union, Afremov moved to Israel in 1990.Nevertheless, his talent achieved its real heights after he went there.

Stunning Realism in Oil Paintings by Pedro Campos. 46-year-old Pedro Campos – artist from Madrid. Using oil paints, he re-creates an incredibly realistic still lifes, which are very easily mistaken for photographs. He works in a variety of areas – from design and interior illustrations (in advertising) to the restoration of furniture, paintings and sculptures. A painting he generally began only 30 years old. “I think the development of my own drawing style strongly influenced the process of restoring paintings – said by the Spanish artist. – Restoration of the ancient art forces you to look for a solution in color: any personal contribution of the artist to remain unnoticed. ” While many compare Campos with other masters of realism, he admires artists such as Lucien Freud, Richard Estes, Francis Bacon, Antonio Lopez and Anish Kapoor for the specifics of their work.
Leonidafremov on deviantART Brian Dettmer's insanely creative Book Autopsies Certainly one of the most creative concepts I’ve seen in a long time. What a kick ass idea.

This beauty belongs to London-based Veronika and Sebastian. My only addition would be a space to keep a pillow or two so I can sit and read on the stairs if I feel so inclined. P.S.

marble magnets I finally gave in and made marble magnets. Not surprisingly they are quite fun, smooshing the glue out to make a perfect little magnified image is very satisfying. Here, in order of appearance, are the places I referenced: paper candy instructions with pictures (this is the first place I saw this project) dogmestic with instructions and pictures photogeek pictures ugly green chair cute ladybug magnets – pictures with packaging threads at Glitter:onetwothree I bought all of these supplies at Michael’s, including the glue I went back for since I got the wrong kind to start with. I bought 1/2″ and 3/4″ round (strong) magnets (in with the frames, near the corks); 1/2″ and 3/4″ clear flat glass marbles (in the fake flowers aisle, check the mosaics section too); silicon sealer made by the Crazy Glue people (in the glue aisle). These are great packaged in those Altoid-sized tins, I’ve seen them in office/gift shops like that.
