Dessins au crayon et illusion de relief - Ramon Bruin Most of these drawings by Ramon Bruin seem relatively simple, but at the same time, because of their shadows and some intriguingly placed real-life props in the photographs, the sketched images appear to be almost magically leaving the bounds of the paper they’re drawn on… (via My Modern Met) The 13 Coolest Tattoo Artists In The World | Hype Seek !! 1.

May 2011 For Nuit Blanche, finding the ideal site is almost as important as the concept of the installation itself. After debating numerous times on the typology of site we were hoping for (jumping between alley ways, open courtyards, sheltered spaces) we found a small parking lot that provides us with qualities from all these types of spaces. Located just off Yonge Street, the site is a small back service area to several apartment and commercial buildings on Temperance Street, directly beside Toronto's "Cloud Gardens". The site provides many opportunities to create flow as well as areas where people can stay and loiter. The layout and plan for the site is still undecided, but it will allow us to shape our project further and design it specifically for our installation space.

Maybe you collected pull tabs and made chain necklaces! With a little imagination the pull tabs were beautiful pieces of jewelry, if only for a moment. These days pull tabs have given way to stay-on tabs and, sadly, soda can accessorizing is no longer possible. What is possible is making lovely jewelry out of items you’d normally throw away. Pick a Jewel accessories, which can be purchased from the Novelax Store International, allow you to fashion what would be considered waste into jewelry you can be proud of.
