Just beautiful.

The Color Purple - 2009

Power. Emotion. Beauty. Conveyed through crayons.

Ohio artist, Christian Faur

Bette Davis made with diamonds….epically gorgeous

Vik Muniz - 2004

I am grateful that I happened to run across this incredible performance this evening, and I am upset that I had not heard about it, or this series, earlier. I would encourage everyone to look into this talented actress and her works here.

“Pae White is the artist responsible for the best damn stage curtain of any damn opera house in the whole damn world.”

I love this image!! Something about it is just beautiful to me

"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery-celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: ‘It’s not where you take things from-it’s where you take them to.’"

…And you cannot tell me that these eyes are not amazing! This is the work of a true make-up artist, not someone who uses make-up better than others but an artist.

This immediately made me think James and the Giant Peach, Shrek’s “Kingdom of Far Far Away,” and Up all rolled into one.

Does anyone even remember James and the Giant Peach?
