The Dutch artist Henk Hofstra has really some unique art works. He mostly likes to paint object from the countryside, like beautiful landscapes, cows and colorful flowers. Sometimes he takes another turn and goes to Amsterdam to shoot some amazing city photos. Several times he has mixed up photography and painting.
Paper seems to impress this artist because almost everything she makes is out of that material. The artist I’m talking about is the talented Su Blackwell that is also an art director. She likes fairy tales and folk-lore and is making several book-sculptures where she cuts out shapes from old books and make them to something new. Here you can see that she has made mini-trees and plant sculptures that she has protected inside glass boxes.
Discovering an exclusive material called CX5 Adam Beane has been sculpting amazing sculptures. And they are sculptures of famous people or characters like Barrack Obama, Princess Leia, Alessandro Del Piero and Johnny Cash. The special material CX5 a really versatile material that Beane himself developed which handles like clay when warm but is hard as plastic when cool. Pretty awesome, huh?

Everybody must have heard about the show “Pimp My Ride” with the funny host Xzibit. Here you can see a selection of ten rides that have crazy and amazing interiors. You can find anything from Hello Kitty and Xbox interior to Retro and Rainbow interior. It must have cost loads of money to create something like that. Imagine owning one. I know I wouldn’t feel so comfortable riding in one of these because they attract way to much attention.
Chinese artist Dai Geng is asking 80,000 for this BMW even though it handles like a brick. And that’s because it is one – or rather hundreds to be precise. He spent more than a year cementing the brick blocks together which he then carved into a sporty 155mph BMW 6 series, and even managed to make brick hinges so the doors open and close.
You can’t get it more bling than this. Artist Fred Brathwaite, also known as Fab 5 Freddy, is making crystal clads from Swarovski crystals. He puts the crystals on images of boxers, and the clad are not inexpensive obviously. One of the boxers are the British Champion David Haye, but Fab Freddy doesn’t care about the persons, he just want to make them shine. The crystals say something about the boxers glowing and fly lifestyle.
Who would have thought that you could use feather to create something so amazing? It looks like water running out of pipes and walls, but it is actually a bunch of single feathers from pigeons. Artist Kate Mccgwire from London is the brain behind this work, and she is not only making “feather water”, but also other sculptures that I would say are abstract, but that gives the art pieces a modern look.
Typewriters have been used for ever, it seems, and that is true. From 1870 and through much of the 20th century typewriters were used in many business offices and other places as well. Today it is vintage to have one at home, but it is a fact that it has long ago been replaced with computers. But still you will find people that uses typewriters to different purposes. Artist Keira Rathbone is actually making black-and-white portraits by printing letters, symbols […]
The Italian artist Franco Recchia really showed his creative and urban side by creating this art piece. It is amazing how detailed he managed to make the city landscapes and their skyscrapers. It is even more impressive that he used computer parts to make it. If you know computers well you will understand what part is what, but for me it looks the same.
