Death makes angels of us all

and gives us wings

where we had shoulders

Max Gasparini Panitings

Artist on Tumblr | Facebook

Il pittore Italiano Max Gasparini è nato a Rovato. Dalla pittura classica e realistica di oggetti, i paesaggi e ritratti, realizzati con tecnica minuziosa, l’autore è arrivato a liberare il gesto "quasi" per caso. E’ stata una folgorazione.

I quadri hanno cominciato a prendere forma senza volontà nè studio, eliminando l’iter d’ideazione, progettazione, bozzetto. L’opera nasce da sè, prende forma solo parzialmente controllabile. L’uso di materiali poveri, quali cartoni da imballaggio usati, sacco, tela non preparata, forniscono al pittore il campo di battaglia sul quale i colori avranno reazioni diverse. Una pittura d’impeto, lasciata al caso, così che i materiali possano dialogare ogni volta con vibrazioni nuove: atto puro di fronte alla casualità degli incontri. Il gesto, la chimica e la fisica decidono la forma. La tecnica è nella mente. Ritratti reali o immaginari di donne che non hanno sguardi di cartone.

Christina Mrozik 

Artist on Tumblr | Facebook

Christina Mrozik has spent the majority of her life observing the natural world and the types of relationships that form within it. Having grown up on the Grand River in Michigan, she was inspired by it’s habitats at an early age. Blending the external world with her own understanding of the human condition has led to her distinct style, in which flora and fauna stand in, representing the simultaneous and often opposing matters of the human heart. She often draws with ink and marker on paper, adding bursts of color with watercolor and high pigmented acrylics. Christina is inspired by many of the early naturalists such as Audobon, but also by visual storytellers such as Rackham. She views the art making process as one of portraiture, in which analyzing the drawing helps make sense of peoples’ histories and abilities. Based in Grand Rapids Michigan, she has shown both regionally and nationally. Currently she is helping finish the Mesoamerica Resiste poster illustration with the Beehive Design Collective, an artist/activist group based in Machias Maine.

Sarah A. Smith’s Corroded Gold Leaf Drawings

Saatchi Art

Sarah A. Smith creates shimmering gold drawings with a combination of gold metal leaf, corrosive, ink, and pencil on paper. After she arranges the metal leaf that was mined and manufactured in China, she brushes it with copper sulfate, causing a chemical reaction that tarnishes and corrodes the gold metal along the surface of the . In the natural environment, this erosion process can take hundreds of years to complete. “The oxidation illustrates pollution, disintegration, transformation of elements, changes, and the passage of time,” Smith says. The result is an incredibly detailed and textured series that while extravagant is also evocative of restraint because it emerges from a process of decay.

Ted Lawson paints nude self-portrait with own blood

As shown in the video below, Lawson’s piece “Ghost in the Machine (blood robot selfie)” uses a robot — connected to a vein in his arm via medical tube — to capture what resembles a human photo copy of the artist.

The artwork on Lawson’s site is sexy, grotesque and colorful, though arguably NSFW depending on whether or not your employer thinks art can be NSFW, which is a wonderful conversation to have with your employer while you both watch a man and a robot draw a nude portrait with blood.

Using figurative representation and geometric abstraction, Ted Lawson creates a narrative progression of forms that reveals something conceptually greater than the sum of their parts. Ted’s large scale works combine digital technology with highly crafted traditional sculpting methods to seamlessly produce conceptual objects that express the underlying analog truth within his subject matter. His working process in an exploration into the human existential experience through imagined models of the universe as physical form. He has been living and working in New York City creating original works from his studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

Visible  by Giacomo Favillaon Behance

"Visible" is the second collaboration between Italian duo, Giacomo Favilla and Francesca Lombardi.

Favilla, whom is a photographer, and Lombardi, a designer, combine their works to create a unique dialogue between the traditional 2D view of photography and 3D materials of craft.

Male figures are posed wearing special hats on their own background, with their identities hidden and transformed into pure organic masks. Favilla shoots his photography with elements inspired by nature, while Lombardi works as a collector and redraws the features through collages of organic objects, with a goal to create a special link between atmosphere and matter.
