Landscape and portrait – Ed Fairburn

5 Dec

“Wrinkles show the journey of a man.”

Some great portraits here from Ed Fairburn.   The maps used help to carve characteristics into each portrait using harsh lines and contours.  There is a sharp contrast between the mechanical cage of the roads and organic feel of the portrait.  Some seem stationary whereas others look as if they are about to move off the page.  An interesting combination of graphic art.  Who’d have thought you could have landscape and portrait?

Carl Warner – A world of food

8 Nov

These food landscapes, or foodscapes, are some of the best we’ve seen.  The shear variety and ingenuity that Carl Warner has portrayed seems effortless.  Coupled with the use of lighting and effects he brings these scenes to life.  They are more like gateways into another world than photographs.  What’s more, a book is being published with these in and it looks like it’ll be well worth the purchase!  Mmm…

Marc Dominic Rienzo – The ball unleashed

This is ruddy excellent.  The execution of this animation has such attention to detail that you can watch it over and over again and still notice something new.

860 miles of water

27 Sep

Pretty interesting when you think about it.  This image shows how big a sphere would be, in relation to the Earth, if it was filled with all the water on the planet.

Jen Stark – The colour sculptor

25 Sep

Jen Stark‘s work is gloriously beautiful.  The explosion of colour and intricacy in the patterns hypnotize your eyes into a peaceful serenity.  Such exposure to rich colours mimics that found in nature, but these man-made versions are perfectly crafted and look like they’re from another planet.  Great stuff to check out.
