Dead Hearts: A Collection Of Heart Art In Public Spaces [12 Pics]

Just yesterday when I stopped at the corner store to grab a soda, I saw the guy behind the counter reading a newspaper.

Impossible Photography Or Just Extremely Creative?
Combining different realities in photography has always been a fascination of mine. The techniques to master the skill are hard to obtain and quite time consuming.

Incredible Coffee Spill Portrait
I am not much of a coffee drinker, I have to admit. However, when I drink coffee, I mostly drink a latte. Some people don't even call it coffee since it has so much milk in it.

Royal Barbie Dolls To Celebrate William And Kate’s 1st Anniversary
Out of all the William and Kate memorabilia we've written about before, this is definitely my favorite. I know that Mattel, the toy company, is just trying to make a buck off the royal "1st wedding anniversary," but that doesn't take away from how well done these Barbie dolls are.

Spatial Relationships Of A Kerning Kind: Keeping Reader Attention
I love brilliantly refined and executed typography, the kind that subtly grabs you and makes you stop for more than a half second.

The Smallest Art Gallery In The Whole World

Razor Sharp Animal Sculptures Made From Shattered CDs
There's no longer anyone out there who is looking to save the CD as a music medium, or at least that's what all the statistics are suggesting.

Minimalistic Superhero Portrait Illustrations
Let's think about all the movie posters we have seen throughout the years. There are quite a few, aren't there?
