severed head self portrait
Holy shit this is the best self portrait I’ve seen (besides Teke’s). Best new follow in a while.
The illustrations for The Shape of Design are hypnotizing.
Seriously click through to “The Shape of Design.” You will not be disappointed.
Ted Vasin is an artist from Russia, now based in San Francisco who has been widely exhibited over the past decade.
I’ve recently enjoyed seeing artwork where photographs are used as the foundation for paintings. Charlotte Caron’s portraits are particularly beautifully executed with a mask-like effect.
The artist says that the works “are trying to respond to a form of duality…ultimately creating an osmosis between the two mediums, between the animal and the portrait.”

Marcos Martinez on Tumblr (Spain)
Creative, inquisitive and retailer, Marcos Martinez is an artist living and working in Valencia, Spain. Dreamlike, disturbing and personal, his work invites us to plunge into an idealized world while disconcerting, where the past becomes the morning recovering old images from different areas, which become more important to treat them, decontextualized and extrapolate to the present. Please visit his Tumblr for more work. (Interview with artist by ARTchipel May-2012)

Various water-based media pieces representational of research conducted on the Lincoln Highway. This body of paintings combines geometric, architecturally-inspired shapes with organic bursts of color and texture reminiscent of topography and road maps. The Lincoln Highway and cross-country travel was an idea born from the Midwest, and was the first road of it’s kind; birthing the interstate. It changed the way communication and connectivity occurs. Having studied art in a town where the first paved mile of the Lincoln Highway was created in the road’s early stages, its influence on commerce, development and communication have a direct influence on the paintings.
