Media_httpfstoppersco_bjyri

Yes, that is a bold claim, but hear me out. Sometimes something so creative yet so painfully simple comes along and just blows me away. This timelapse/hyperlapse video created using Google Street View is just one of those things. My mouth was agape the entire time I was watching this. Teehan+Lax Labs created this project by recording Google Street View movements all over the world and assembling them into a twisting and turning view of our world from the street.

Street Artist Cleverly Turns the Road into His Canvas

Media_httpapiningcom8_bapbk

With a name like Roadsworth, you could easily guess that this isn't any ordinary street artist. Though born Peter Gibson, he chose the name Roadsworth because, as he states, "Where Wordsworth is a poet of words, Roadsworth is a poet of roads."

Though he started painting on the streets as a form of activism (for more bike paths), his motivation later evolved into a more personal one. It became his alternative form of expression, a creative outlet if you will. Currently his works all have an aspect of protest in them, a way for Roadsworth to comment on today's social issues or, as he says, "simply protest against the mundaneness of the urban landscape."

Art on the Edge: Unbelievable Street Art Illusions

Media_httpinspiration_jpbjd

Street art has always fascinated me. There is an intense beauty in art that is unmotivated by success or social advancement and recognition. Now tagging your pseudonym on a wall of a house or statue can hardly be called art, this is more of an act of pointless vandalism than anything else really. It’s like doodling in somebody else’s notebook. The motivation that drives a true street artist is usually one of two things.

Either the artist wants to make the streets of his/hers town more alive and beautiful or wants to send a message (sometimes it’s both). Noble goals as they may be it is dangerous work since the authorities of most countries see these people as common vandals. Regardless of these hardships and restrictions street art has evolved and is now an accepted art form. Not surprising when we take into account the breathtaking beauty of their work which even the untrained eye can perceive as something that really takes talent and hard work to achieve.

36 Sweet Graffiti Characters

Media_httpslodivecomw_lrgal

Graffiti are an interesting form of art that are made by drawing or spraying on walls or other surfaces in public places. Graffiti uses lots of colors that are either sprayed or scrawled on a large surface, making them look very attractive and fascinating. This fast developing form of art is popular not only for its controversies but also for its unique style of use of colors. Spray paints and marker pens are mostly used for graffiti. Simple colorful paintings to large detailed wall paintings are common forms of graffiti.

Graffiti have been in prevalence from ancient times. Greeks, Romans and Egyptians covered walls, rocks and caves with graffiti that denoted the lifestyle and languages of the people. Nowadays, we can see graffiti on abandoned building walls, latrines, subways and lonely bridges. Graffiti characters include words, numbers and even symbolic designs that have significant meanings. Though graffiti are beautiful, there are a lot of controversies that surround them, as graffiti are used to denote strong political and social messages. They are considered to be illegal in most of the countries. The following post is a collection of amazing and interesting Graffiti pictures.

Kurt Wenner born in Ann Arbor, Michigan is an artist best known for his realistic street painting and chalk murals using a projection called anamorphosis. Kurt Wenner produced his first commissioned mural at the age of sixteen, and by seventeen was earning his living as a graphic artist. He attended both Rhode Island School of Design and Art Center College of Design. He was employed by NASA as an illustrator to create conceptual paintings of future space projects and extraterrestrial landscapes. Wenner eventually left NASA for Italy in order to pursue his love of classical art.
