This is Karen Bit Vejles and her amazing paper cut-out art which she holds in her hands.  Psaligraphy, unknown to others like me, is the art of paper cutting.  Karen is the only one I have seen so far that can create marvelous paper cut-outs with so much intricacy and complex designs.

This amazing shadow art is the work of Belgian artist Fred Eerdekens.  It's what they call a shadow sculpture.  His artwork involves sculpting and forming objects like plants, wires, cottons, boxes and other ordinary things that when lit from an angle, creates shadows which reveals words that are almost poetic.

How about an Alice in Wonderland inspired ring.  This is the creative work of H.Stern, a Brazilian jewelry brand, in partnership with Disney.  The ring is part of a collection of jewelry inspired by Tim Burton's movie "Alice in Wonderland".

Two days ago, I was making an interior perspective of a bedroom for a client.  The bedroom has a queen size bed and some thick curtains for the sliding doors at the side.  I needed a colorful pattern to use as a texture for the beddings and curtains and so I searched online.  I'm no longer happy with some of the patterns I had so I thought of searching for new patterns I could use for the fabrics.  Fortunately I came across a nice Pattern Maker Online and it did the job of creating new patterns for me to use for my 3d renderings.

The true to life image of the panther above is the incredible work of New Orleans artist, Craig Tracy.  Called "Butterfly", this painting is no ordinary painting.  If you'll look a little closer, you'll notice a shapely backside figure of a woman painted to blend in with the whole portrait of the panther.  An amazing body painting job done by Craig Tracy.

Using the human skin as his canvas, Craig Tracy creates works of art in his desire to somehow affect people's lives in a positive way.
