      Something very colourful: Vibrant Quilled Paper Illustrations and Sculptures by Yulia Brodskaya | Colossal









      Paper artist and graphic designer Yulia Brodskaya first began to experiment with various ways to illustrate using paper about six years ago. In the time since she’s become a master at quilling and other sculptural techniques involving paper, landing high-profile jobs working on paper projects for fashion designer Issey Miyake, Godiva chocolates, and even Paramount films.

      In her own time, Brodskaya often returns to an exploration of aging and older people, inspired in part due to fear of her own mortality, but also in an attempt to portray aging people with dignity by rendering them in brilliant color, or by showcasing their interests. There’s also an added bonus: quilled paper is an excellent medium for creating wrinkles.

      "Once upon a time I dream't I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly. Soon I awaked, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I am a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am a butterfly, dreaming I am a man."-Lao Tzu ॐ

      I love both of your contributions, Kaizen and Steph!
      To post full-sized pictures instead of thumbnails, you'll need to post a URL instead of uploading images directly from your computer.
      You can either use existing links from Google Images, etc. or upload the photos to any picture sharing/storing website (I personally use Imgur but there are lots to choose from!)
      When you use DV's image uploader to post the URL, uncheck the box that says "Retrieve remote file and reference locally".

      I have come across so much amazing artwork lately, I've been bookmarking it all to post here soon.

      What an awesome thread! I was spamming "likes" like crazy.

      A few months ago I came across a sculptor named Beth Cavener Stichter, and I really liked her representations of animals. Her technique is precise yet fluid, and the animals end up looking both naturalistic and distinctly sentient. Let's see if I can successfully post some images:

      Thank you Kaizen! You might like the thread to the left in my sig - there are other artists, too - I started searching out Gonzalez' inspirations as he named them, and Gray was among them for example...

      As ~Dreamer~ says - easiest is getting a free account somewhere to upload, like photobucket, which I use. But it's also possible like Verre maybe did her first one - post it small/attachment, then left click that, right click copy url and again per picture symbol per url and uncheck the little box. I'll do one for you:




      @Verre - I really, really like them!
      Reminds me of these ones, but not with such really exquisite facial expressions as yours - "sentient" - captures it exactly:









      Artist calls himself Mr. Finch and makes a lot of moths and mushrooms and other creatures from old used furniture fabrics, a bit morbid but I have a soft spot for them.


      They also remind me of these, made by Ellen Jewett aka "creaturesfromel" - a tad too kitschy for my liking, but here they are anyways:

      As to zen photography - google pictures led me to this wonderful artist among a lot of copyrighted material and besides the many stone staples:
      Zen Moments by Wolf Shadow Photography - Zen Moments Photograph - Zen Moments Fine Art Prints and Posters for Sale

      I like photographer Corrie White a lot: Liquid Drop Art - Photography by Corrie White



      The splashes from droplets impacting jets create truly mesmerizing liquid sculptures. Corrie White is one of the masters of this type of high-speed macro photography. Her work captures the instantaneous battles between viscosity, surface tension, and inertia. The fantastic structure seen here through the falling droplets is created by a series of drops timed so that the later ones strike the Worthington jet produced by the initial drop’s impact.





      "I have a passion for water drop photography! A macro art form where you can mold a figure made of liquids, and where each one is totally unique. This type of photography lets you experience what is usually invisible to the human eye.

      I was born in The Netherlands and currently make my home near London, Ontario in Canada. Photography has been an interest of mine from an early age and macro photography has always had a special appeal for me. I am basically self-taught and learned water drop photography from some tutorials online. A lot of my water drops posted here were done manually with a medicine dropper and a good sense of timing. The more complex forms are now done by using Mumford’s Time Machine and the Drip Kit which allow me to create some very unique and fascinating figures. The colours I use come from food dyes and various flash gels. The forms of the water and milk shapes are pure and unedited.

      I have made some discoveries in water drop photography, one of them being the unique three drop splash as in “Tiny Dancer”. Another is multiple exposures in water drops. This is where the drops are falling in the same area but while I am panning the camera, I can get more than one splash in the same frame, such as my “Liquid Flowers”. I pushed the drip kit to the limits by creating a splash with a bubble-type base caused by an extra large drop as in “Suspended”. I have combined soap film and water drops simultaneously as well as the water drop/liquid flow combo as you see in “Coral Sea Dreaming”. One method I started using was to color white milk splashes using colored gels on the flash guns which made some very colorful forms. I’m always looking for the unique and trying to come up with something that has never been done before."

      I love abstract art!
      Such pretty colours.
      I'm not sure about who the artists are that painted these, I found them at this website: Abstract Art The Sense of Capriciousness - Artistic Line

      I really like Robert Chew's artwork, especially the Big Five series of digital paintings, which depict mech versions of the South African big five animals, created to prevent poaching in South Africa. (proceeds from selling prints etc went to the International Anti-Poaching Foundation) As well as the Big five he also created robotic versions of other animals like the white black eagle.

      I also love the creativity in producing technical drawings for each animal. My favorite is how the ox peckers have a hangar on the Buffaloes back, and act as multiple cameras/UAV's which extend the Buffaloes sensory range.

      It's amazing all the stuff that some people can make using the proper software (and hardware)... But, what about some old fashioned paper stuff?

      These are some of my favourite pictures.

      Shadow the Deerian by CleverFox101 on DeviantArt

      Happy Ru by phation on DeviantArt

      Equality [Speedpaint Link!] by FuyusFox on DeviantArt

      Though when I watch a livestream or a speedpaint by the person that made the last one or a livestream by the person that made Ru, I usually have a sudden idea for a new picture. So I guess they are inspiring. The first picture is just cool especially the story that goes along with it.
