Tire Carvings: The Next Level Of Insane Creativity
A while back we featured an article about tire carvings that we're quite insane. Back then, the carving itself was on the top side of the tire, and it pretty much created an astonishing pattern when it rolled on anything soft. Of course, these tires were only used for art. I am quite sure that if th ...
For The Artist In Your Life: The Happy Accidents Tablecloth
When I was a child, I had an art teacher once who used to always tell us, "In art, there are no such things as mistakes, only happy accidents." I always remembered that my whole life. I think it's a great attitude and simple philosophy to remember when applied to any form of creativity. If we adopt ...
Relief Paintings Turn Flat Art Into Realistic Color Explosions
Life comes in many forms and shapes, and the one we experience daily isn't much different from that. What we call reality is sometimes turned into weird and odd events that our mind has trouble understanding, yet there is a beauty to it that we all embrace and appreciate. It's easy to draw a connect ...
Woah! Enormous Sand Drawings On The Beach
It seems the beach inspires many artists. Since a lot of us grew up making sand castles, I suppose it only makes sense. After I saw the pictures in Richard's article entitled 18 Astonishing Star Wars Sand Sculptures, I didn't think I would see sand art again that would impress me. That is pretty muc ...

If you are a self-employed freelancer or consultant with any amount of success under your belt, you have no doubt had to deal with people asking you to work for free.

How To: Draw Creative Caricatures
Caricatures are such a fun style of drawing and illustrating. We've written about talented caricature artists many times on Bit Rebels. Just last week, I wrote about the very well done caricature art of Denis Zilber. When I look at caricatures, I have a lot of questions. How does the artist know whi ...
Creative Photography: Dramatic Effects Of Red & Black
Earlier this month, I wrote an article called The Beauty Of Selective Color Photography. It highlighted the photography technique which involves converting a photo to black and white, but leaving some parts of it in color. It's truly a stunning effect.
In addition to using the contrast of certain ...
10 Creative Caricatures That Each Tell A Story
I've always been fascinated by artists that can create caricatures. We all know that a caricature is a portrait that distorts or exaggerates the essence of the person being drawn. The artist somehow has to choose which feature to distort and change, yet keep the likeness similar enough so that the p ...
Today Is Elvis’s Birthday: Celebrate It With His Weirdest Song Ever!
One could debate for eons about who is the most successful artist ever to walk this earth. Some say Elvis Presley while others say Michael jackson. Some say The Beatles are, but then you have that weird category dilemma where The Beatles were a group and so forth. How do you measure it, really? ...
Unbelievable Portraits Made From Chewed Gum & Spit
Apparently this guy has been doing this for years, but I just found out about it today, and it's blowing my mind. Do you see the "paintings" below? No paint was used to make them. They were created from chewed gum and spit only. Nuts!

I go through a lot of websites everyday. It's usually because I'm doing research, getting info on articles I'm writing, or of course, just getting entertained.

World’s First Holographic Concert Was Held In Japan!
There is no doubt that technology is advancing at a record speed. A few years back I was somewhat involved in developing a 3D generated band for a Swedish television company named TV4.

IKEA Creates 3D Chalk Art In Sydney
I wish we had an IKEA store here in Manila. Whenever I'm traveling, I often drop by whenever I have time. IKEA is a Swedish corporation that designs and sells ready to assemble furniture, accessories and appliances. To date they have around 316 stores in 37 countries. They also publish a catalog ...
