Man Draws Panoramic views of NYC, Tokyo and Rome from Memory!
Several years ago I saw a show on TV about savants, people with extraordinary abilities in different areas. The one that caught my attention especially in that show was a guy that drew a London building exactly how it looked like after just passing through it on the way from the airport to the studi ...
Introducing: The Dress You Can Eat!
Is there any limit to how far someone's creativity can take them? I don't think so. After featuring so much unique artwork on this site, I’ve decided that a true artist can create his artwork from anything, anywhere, anytime the inspiration strikes.
I’ve written about designing your own clothe ...
The Museum of Modern Tweets
This is the most creative and unique Twitter inspired artwork that I have seen in a while. As we all know, celebrities on Twitter aren’t known for their stellar tweets. Most of the time they are boring, or just about themselves, but we follow them anyway, to get a glimpse into their glamorous life ...
Happy 20th Birthday Photoshop! | Interview with John Knoll
Who would guess that Photoshop, a program that has truly shaped the way we see the world today, is turning 20 years old! I remember the first time I installed Photoshop. I was so excited that I played with it every day for weeks. Now, several years later, I still get lost in the magic of Photosho ...
Pablo Picasso Like You’ve Never Seen Before
I was first exposed to Picasso’s famous painting, Guernica, when I was attending University and studying art history. As if the story of the Spanish Civil War in 1937 wasn’t sad enough, seeing Picasso’s interpretation is, to me, pain and suffering (which are the essence of war) personified.
I ...
Interactive Mirrors | The Mirrors of the Future
Mirror, mirror on the wall, what’s the coolest mirror of all? I read many years ago in a Napoleon Hill book that successful people write their goals down. I don’t know why, but I’ve always done this with lipstick on my bathroom mirror. I think my thought process when I started doing this was that ...
The Best Etch A Sketch Artwork in the World
Do you remember playing with an Etch A Sketch? I loved my Etch A Sketch when I was little. I played with it every day for years. Recently, I even considered buying myself another one, just for the fun of it. It’s one of those classic toys that never goes out of style.
Several months ago, my f ...
To Satisfy the Cannibal in You | Baked Body Parts
I’ve written about some pretty bizarre topics on this site, but I think this one is without a doubt the weirdest. I love to feature unusual artists that take creativity and innovation to the next level. I think you will agree that Kittiwat Unarrom fits this description. To describe his art in a n ...
Dare To Live Your Dreams | The Story of Kandee Johnson
I just can’t get enough of Kandee Johnson. Her makeup artistry tutorials continue to help women around the world and in 2009, she reached Internet celebrity status. It wasn’t always easy for her, which is why I think so many people can relate to her story and love her.
She got married and had a ...
How To: Look Like Megan Fox
As a professional woman, I have to put makeup on my face almost every day because I’m out in the field for a few hours visiting clients. If it were up to me, I wouldn’t wear any makeup at all, but since it’s a necessary evil, one of my goals for 2010 is to start making it fun instead of a chore eac ...

Magical Foam Artwork Made with a Sharpie
What can you do with a sharpie and a styrofoam cup? If you ask Cheeming Boey, you can do a lot. He started doodling on these cups with a sharpie in 2006. Long story short, he is now selling these cups around the world for hundreds of dollars each.
Many people raise an eyebrow when they see thi ...

What is the deal with Lady Gaga? It seems like we can’t get enough of her. Here in the states, you hear her music everywhere you go. People in the media are constantly talking about her.
Then, yesterday, I saw this video below for the first time and suddenly it all made sense. She is theatric ...
Melting Men | The Art That Melts Away
Recently, artist Nele Azevedo carved 1,000 little men out of ice. She strategically placed these frozen figures on the steps in Berlin’s Gendarmenmarkt Square. On the day she did this, the temperature was 73 F degrees (23 C) and the cold ice men started melting very quickly.

Get Inspired! | Fascinating Flickr Favs
Creative people are always looking for new sources of inspiration. I have a ritual that inspires me every day, and if I may, I would like to share it with you. I usually wake up very early in the morning. I sit in the darkness, at my computer, with a blanket draped over my legs. My dog is usuall ...
