The surf event at Huntington Beach California

surfing-2

The surf event  at Huntington Beach, California is held to honor the ocean and protest coastal pollution. Several thousand reportedly attended the event, in part to recognize a spiritual aspect of man's relationship to water, the coastline, and the surf. Whether it's massive rolling ocean waves, or standing waves in rivers, or wind-driven lakewater, people around the world find a way to get out and ride on belly boards, kiteboards, longboards, wakeboards and more.

The world most dangerous birds - Cassowary

dangerous-birds-2

According to the Guinness Book of Records, the Cassowaries are the world’s most dangerous birds, capable of dealing fatal blows. They are very unpredictable, aggressive creatures, especially if wounded or cornered. The Cassowary lives in the rain forests of Australia and New Guinea and are actually pretty shy animals if undisturbed, but if you get to close and it thinks you’re a threat you could receive a bone-breaking kick or get sliced by its dagger-like sharp claws. During WWII, soldiers stationed in New Guinea were warned to stay away from these birds, but some of them still became victims.

Amazing pencil art by artist Jennifer Maestre

I love impressionism. One of my favourite painters is Claude Monet. I can’t name just only one favourite painting of him. He made so many beautiful pieces of art. At their time impressionist movement was something really original, new and revolutionary.
And I would like to introduce you somebody original from our times – Jennifer Maestre. She is a South African artist. She creates sculptures made entirely of colored pencils. Such a fun!   I love the amazing shapes and colors! It looks almost like creatures of nature.

Work of art made of staples

In past we have seen artists using various mediums to express their creativity, but we never came across artwork created using staples; though we created a post on Staple Skyscrapers. But what we have here is really incredible. Artist B Debombourg creates beautiful detailed work of art using staples. The creativity is known once you get close to these creations and we are sure you would appreciate them. Carefully placing 35,000 staples on a white wall, he created two pieces of art, over a period of 75 hours.

Grotesque art

That there is an overwhelming number of pieces that represent this particular grouping of artwork seems false to believe, but this is happening to be on the rise as we get further into the new millennium, and realize the shedding of our culture's skins time and again. Grotesque artwork pulls us back into the human forms we have been born into, and truly seems to give us a reaffirming sense of who we are. There are many artists, though part of other movements, which have proven to fill the criteria for this grouping of concepts.
Grotesque art from the past ranges from varying degrees of mood and theme, but always seem to draw from those factors that are widely considered by to be taboo or dark in nature, adhering to some of the most brutal and thought-provoking events in history. All these things have come together to create a body of works that jump between particular eras, but seem interrelated in the subject matter that they portray, creating works that define the morbid attentions that we seem to take from our history as a whole.

Amazing from nature - vegetables and fruit

What is a natural organic product? These days the answer to that question has become a bit confusing. Although an organic product is "literally" natural, according to regulations on how the food is grown, processed and labeled, the terms, "all-natural" "natural," and "organic" mean three different things. Organic food is obviously the healthiest and purest food for you to eat, but unfortunately many food companies try to fool you by labeling their products with the word(s)natural or all-natural so you think it is as healthy as organic food, when in fact it is not. This images are products of organic nature.

Funny model police car

They move fast, they have flashing lights on the roof, and they have sirens that can be heard a long way off. But surely that isn't all that's special about police cars?
