Vincent Giarrano

in , ,

Vincent Giarrano's figurative paintings in which the artist has taken moments from everyday life, and has made of them something beautiful and introspective.

“What inspires me most is the energy and beauty of my experiences,” says Giarrano. “I see painting as a way to appreciate what is all around us, stuff we take for granted or don't notice. My favorite things to paint are scenes of life in New York City. I love the architecture and people of the city. It's endlessly inspiring. I enjoy painting scenes on the streets but also interiors, which are often about people, alone and in their own thoughts. For me, that presents someone as more truly himself or herself.”

"Denver-based artist Chris Carlson who is known for his work with 3D chalk illusions created a great stop motion Tetris game. The shading, perspective and motion is incredibly spot-on. You can see more of his video game and pop-culture influenced chalk drawings over on Tumblr." (via Colossal) http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=y0_lw5QXSvk

I am Google by Dina Kelberman

in ,

Have you ever played "Associations"? Imagine artist Dina Kelberman is doing that with images from Google. Everyday she starts with previous image and finds it siblings or close visual association sorting by many options from colour to objects used on it. Endless and priceless state of digital art! http://dinakelberman.tumblr.com/

I’m Google is an ongoing tumblr blog in which batches of images and videos that I cull from the internet are compiled into a long stream-of-consciousness. The batches move seamlessly from one subject to the next based on similarities in form, composition, color, and theme. [... ] I feel that my experience wandering through Google Image Search and YouTube hunting for obscure information and encountering unexpected results is a very common one. My blog serves as a visual representation of this phenomenon. This ability to endlessly drift from one topic to the next is the inherently fascinating quality that makes the internet so amazing.

Bubble wrap art by Bradley Hart

in , ,

Inspired by the bubble wrap I did my first bubble calendar ten years ago in uni, few years later I found the same idea in production spreading across the web. The bubble wrap obsession is a real stress reliever. But how about art? Bradley Hart armed with paint and injector creates these paintings. The result is a fantastic analog/digital picture fitting of our modern era.
