artist creates 3D art with pencil

I had to share this after seeing the video my brain still does not understand that it is not 3D. The amazing artist Nagai Hideyuki has some serious magical powers with a regular pencil and paper. It is amazing what shading and shadows will do to your brain.

Follow me to see more of his work.

Unleash Your Fingers (video)

You are about to be introduced to a dance called "Tutting." Who knew you could do so much just by moving your hands? I have seen this type of dancing before but mix it with cool motion graphics and it takes "Amazing!" up to "Oh My Gosh! My head is going to explode!" Well, at least thats what it did for me. I still won't stray away from my iPhone but great dancing.

Play it full-screen and in HD for the "wow" effect.    :)

the dying art of hand-painted billboards

Up There is a wonderful short documentary on hand-painted billboards and wall paintings. The film tells the stories of the New York painters who are struggling to keep this method alive. This film will simply pull your inner artist out and make you want to fight the good fight along with these passionate painters. The finished artwork from these guys is just unreal.
