These are INCREDIBLE!

Street artist INSA has made animated gifs out of successive photos of his graffiti, calling it giffiti.

Artist Sara Landeta draws birds on the back of prescription medicine boxes. I love this so much for some reason.

I've been wanking to Turner's The Fighting Temeraire again recently.

I've gotta post a pic of the oil painting I found in a storage area here I have in my room that's faptastic. Temeraire's a good one, very menstrual with a hint of ball sack.

Something I made today.
The font is based on Morrissey's handwriting (circa 1997).

anything by francis bacon.

caravaggio is great as well but a mad bastard in his life.

^^ Francis Bacon was a great painter, and a strange creature - which is hardly surprising when observing his life.

I like this painting best

Apparently, he used to be locked in his room - screaming for hours.

Caravaggio is also great. Many artists are 'mad bastards'.

This will blow your mind, so worth the 5 minutes. Timelapse of a photorealistic drawing of Robin Williams. She sections it off and uses a lot of white in places the eye seems to see no white. Watching the hair happen is amazing.

That is pretty remarkable.

I'm always baffled by photorealism. It takes a great deal of intelligence and talent to be able to depict light and colour with such accuracy.

However, I often find myself questioning the purpose of photorealism. I always view it, merely, as a very elaborate party trick.
