I Capture The Beauty Of Abandoned Places Before Nature Reclaims Them Forever

There is something enticing about abandoned places. One can feel the past in such places, they have a peculiar smell. The nature is inevitably reclaiming them. A couple of years ago I entered a derelict cement plant in Jaworzno and instantly fell in love with the place. Since then I’ve been trying to visit as many abandoned places as possible, in Poland and other countries. I believe that there is an obscure beauty in such places, unseen by most people....

I Illustrate The Difficulties I Face As An Introvert

I draw “INFJoe Cartoons” to encourage and validate fellow introverts and INFJs (one of the 16 Myers-Briggs personality types). I try to find a little humor in the difficulties introverts and INFJs face while navigating life, so making these cartoons is also a kind of therapy for me. I began drawing them with a Sharpie on regular copy paper. In 2013, however, when my wife and I planned a 2-month trip to Spain, I bought an iPad to be more mobile and started making them with a stylus and Paper by FiftyThree....

New Car Covered In Rust Camouflage To Protect It From Thieves

There are plenty of different ways to protect your car from theft, but one owner of a Volkswagen Transporter van decided to protect it in a novel way – by covering the new vehicle in rust-like vinyl to make it look like a hunk of junk! The artwork for the vinyl wrap, done by Clyde’s Wraps in Glasgow, involved taking exact measurements of the entire van. This allowed their artists to realistically model rust as if it had been formed by water running down from the vehicle’s handles, mirrors and frames....

People Online Recall Debunked Advice And “facts” From Parents During Their Childhood (32 Stories)

When I was a child, I was given a lot of advice, both useful and not so, from parents and adult relatives. About how one should or shouldn’t behave in different life situations, about what would be right and what would be wrong, and even if some advice looked completely strange in my eyes, I trusted the life experience of adults. As it turns out, I trusted in vain. Years and decades have passed, and now, looking back at everything I was told, I am well aware that many of these pieces of “worldly wisdom” were, in fact, either completely wrong or simply manipulative....

School Teacher Paints Realistic Portraits On His Hand And Stamps Them On Paper

Instead of painting directly on paper, first-grade school teacher Russel Powell paints realistic portraits directly on his hand, then using it as a stamp. The San Jose-based teacher-artist paints quickly enough that the paint doesn’t dry, letting his palm-lines become part of the piece. Powell calls this process “hand-stamping,” and even incorporates similar art projects into his classes. Powell has been teaching at the same school for 14 years, and also runs Pangaean Studios....
