Her Website

Wiki:
Akiane Kramarik was born in Mount Morris, Illinois to a Lithuanian mother and an American father.

She is homeschooled.[1]She is primarily a self-taught painter. However, she states that God has given her the visions and abilities to create her artwork, which is unusual for her family, considering both her parents were atheist at the time (they later converted to Christianity on account of Kramarik's paintings and visions). Kramarik started drawing at the age of four, advancing to painting at six, and writing poetry at seven. Her first completed self-portrait sold for US$10,000.[2] A portion of the money generated from sales is donated by Kramarik to charities.[3] According to Kramarik, her art is inspired by her visions of heaven, and her personal connection with God. Kramarik's art depicts life, landscape, and people.

At the age of 10, she appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show and at the age of 12, on CNN

The Fantastically Imaginative Foodscape art of Carl Warner

2011-08-23T14:27:00.000+08:00

Source

Carl Warner is an amazingly talented artist who takes common food items and transforms them into stunning works of art known as ‘Foodscapes’. Pasta hills, thyme trees, mozzarella clouds, salami rivers and red onion balloons. These are just a few of the intricate details found in the mouth-watering food worlds created for European advertising and food industry campaigns.

Each Foodscape is painstakingly built over several days, from the planning stages to building the 3D food landscape to the final stage of digital retouching. The scenes are photographed in layers from foreground to background and sky, with the elements then put together in post-production to achieve the final dazzling 3D image.

“I could shoot the images in one shot but the food in the foreground would have perished by the time you have finished the background,” explains Warner. Unfortunately, the food is no longer edible after being glued, pinned and fiddled with under the hot lights during the photography process, but the leftovers are shared with the crew or sent to a homeless shelter.

“I do not consider my work to be a waste of food as I am creating something which brings a bit of joy to the world and is used to encourage healthy eating. The fact that it is not eaten does not mean it hasn’t been put to good use,” he explains.

The resourceful and ingenious series requires numerous shots — Carl first sketches out a traditional landscape scene before introducing the food. Each scene is then captured in separate layers to prevent the food from wilting. He then uses computer technology to combine them into a single final print.

To give a realistic 3-D feel to the photos, each still life is composed on an 8 foot by 4 foot table. The foreground is only about 2 feet across. The artist from Tonbridge, Kent, who was born in 1965, creates amazing panoramas, including a broccoli forest, bread mountains, a cheese village, and smoked salmon seas. “I like the way smaller aspects of nature resembled larger ones.” says Warner.

The success of the project has motivated Warner to plan for the images to be released in an educational book to encourage kids to eat healthier. He says his ‘Foodscapes’ were partly inspired by healthy eating campaigns, but they haven’t persuaded his own children to take up the 5-a-day pledge. “But at least they don’t play with their food as much as I do.” said Carl.

His solo exhibitions include ‘Sense’ at the Centre for Contemporary Photography, Melbourne in 1995 and ‘A Concrete Pasture’ at the University Art Museum, University of Queensland, Brisbane in 1998 and Cairns Regional Gallery in 1999, ‘The Art of Inclusion’ in 1999-2000, and ‘Minimal’ at the Australian Centre for Photography, Sydney in 2000.

His work is truly inspirational in the breadth of imagination shown, and the scenes that he creates are always memorable. This is an exceptionally gifted individual, whose work deserves far more recognition. Carl Warner, an awesome talent if ever there was one.

The Bendigo Advertiser reports:

INSTANT television sensation Chooka Parker is coming to terms with his newly-found fame.

The 17-year-old self-taught musician from Red Lion, near Maryborough, wowed the nation with his performance on television talent competition Australia's Got Talent last night.

"It was funny to see me up there with all of them," Chooka said.

"I kind of knew it was coming but I did not expect it would be like bang, and everyone knew who I was," he said.

"I haven't been up the street yet but beforehand, everyone would see me and say 'I've seen you on the TV' or 'are you that guy?’."

Chooka was the first performer to showcase his talent on the Channel Seven program last night, having featured in ads for the show leading up to last night's series opener.

His performance almost reduced judge Dannii Minogue to tears, attracting a standing ovation from the crowd.

Chooka's journey to national television has been a unique ride.

He grew up in a family without a television, internet or CD player.

His mother, Kerry, homeschooled him and older brother, Adam.

Chooka received a CD of classical performer Wolfgang Mozart but had to wait two years before his family purchased a CD player so he could listen to it.

The sounds changed his life, with the naturally talented musical youth teaching himself to play the piano and read music.

Chooka entered the television competition, which he had never heard of until late last year, after friends at shearing school heard him play his Casio keyboard.

He only performs original music that he makes up spontaneously, never repeating a previous performance.

Fans of the program took to their Twitter and Facebook accounts to heap praise upon the teen after watching his performance.

The Parker family borrowed a television to watch their son and brother showcase his talent.

Chooka said the family switched off the television after watching their first ever Australia's Got Talent episode and returned to their normal nightly activity, listening to him play.

"We stopped watching after that," he said.

"It was quite enjoyable watching all the performances.

"I think the best thing about Australia's Got Talent is meeting all these new people who can do all these different things.

"It was quite amazing, very, very impressive."

Toothpick Artist

One man, 100,000 toothpicks, and 35 years: An incredible kinetic sculpture of San Francisco

Thirty five years ago I had yet to be born, but artist Scott Weaver had already begun work on this insanely complex kinetic sculpture, Rolling through the Bay, that he continues to modify and expand even today. The elaborate sculpture is comprised of multiple “tours” that move pingpong balls through neighborhoods, historical locations, and iconic symbols of San Francisco, all recreated with a little glue, some toothpicks, and an incredible amount of ingenuity. He admits in the video that there are several toothpick sculptures even larger than his, but none has the unique kinetic components he’s constructed. Via his website Weaver estimates he’s spent over 3,000 hours on the project, and the toothpicks have been sourced from around the world:

I have used different brands of toothpicks depending on what I am building. I also have many friends and family members that collect toothpicks in their travels for me. For example, some of the trees in Golden Gate Park are made from toothpicks from Kenya, Morocco, Spain, West Germany and Italy. The heart inside the Palace of Fine Arts is made out of toothpicks people threw at our wedding.

See the sculpture for yourself at the Tinkering Studio through the end of June. Photos courtesy of their Flickr gallery.

25 Photorealistic Pictures Drawn with a BIC Pen

2011-04-23T16:21:00.002+08:00

Source

At a glimpse they may look like some pretty sharp photos, but actually all those pictures are hand drawn with a humbleBic ballpoint pen! Can you believe that?

Human eye can be fooled so easily!

Spanish artist Juan Francisco Casas, who’s probably 33 at the time of writing this, uses up to four 14p ballpoint pens to create his stunningly photorealistic drawings, measuring up to 10ft (3 meters) high.

The use of penballs makes his drawings even more peculiar, which certainly has played a big role in his way to success.

Juan’s source of inspiration comes from his own photographs of nights out with his friends, and his works are already a sell-out at exhibitions. You can only imagine how wild his parties is, as half of his drawings include girls that forgot to put on their clothes.

So, if you really want to feel bad about your pen doodles – have a look at these 25 Incredibly Photorealistic Drawingsdrawn with a humble BIC PEN.

China's "Chalk God"

2010-12-19T14:30:00.000+08:00

From Xinmin:

“Chalk God” 3D street art, netizens hail him as an “Architect”

Yesterday, many photographs of 3D chalk art spread on Sina Weibo [a Chinese microblog service like Twitter], with the talented person who created these artworks being nicknamed “Chalk God” by netizens. One netizen said: “Is he an architect like in ‘Inception‘?” There were even netizens shouting one after another: “This isn’t chalk, this isn’t chalk.” Through a search, Nanjing media discovered that the 3D chalk art first appeared on a post in the Henan section of Tianya [a popular Chinese internet BBS forum], with the poster called “tntu3d“. A phone call confirmed that he is the “Chalk God”, but we can call him Mr. Hou.

With regards to his own creative ideas, Mr. Hou said: “I think these 3D artworks actually aren’t that rare/surprising, but the idea is very key, and only with the idea can you move people. For example, I once went to a tourist sight/attraction, and there was a sculpture at this intersection. Below the sculpture, on all four sides, were a bunch of advertisements for counterfeit official documents. I felt this was so representative of China today, so I started drawing, never expecting to become so popular.” Mr. Hou expressed that the piece that he is most satisfied with was “drawing ‘happy birthday’ for my son’, and the vegetable planting piece was created last year when stealing vegetable games were really popular.

Here are the photos of the “Chalk God’s” artwork:

China's Got Talent 2010 winner - Liu Wei

2010-10-29T15:52:00.006+08:00

An armless Chinese man has wowed TV audiences in his homeland with a flawless piano performance - using only his toes.

Liu Wei appeared on China's Got Talent and stunned viewers with a faultless recital of the classic Mariage D'amour.

The 23-year-old lost both arms when he was 10 after he touched a high-voltage wire during a game of hide-and-seek.

He said it had been his "destiny" to perform on the show.

"For people like me, there were only two options," he added.

"One was to abandon all dreams, which would lead to a quick, hopeless death.

"The other was to struggle without arms to love an outstanding life."

When he was 18, Mr Liu decided he wanted to be a professional musician and taught himself how to play the piano in secret.

He persevered and developed his own style after his teacher quit, saying it was impossible for anyone to play with their toes.

“Hi, I’m Sungha Jung from South Korea. My dream is to become a professional acoustic fingerstyle guitarist.

I had been watching my dad play the guitar for awhile before I finally jumped on it myself two years ago. I just turned eleven in September, 2007.

Currently, I am taking weekly classical guitar lessons and teaching myself fingerstyle guitar.

I used to not have tabs for the music that I played in my videos. I just listen and pick them up directly from the sound source in videos available on the internet. However, recently, I have started playing with original tabs whenever they are available to me by courtesy of the authors.”

Geeks - Professional Regurgitator

2010-06-01T15:06:00.003+08:00

From wikipedia:

A professional regurgitator is an entertainer whose act consists of swallowing and regurgitating various unusual objects. The objects may consist of anything from live animals (live mice: The Great Waldo, to light bulbs, billiard balls (Stevie Starr) and kerosene (Hadji Ali).

Some magicians perform regurgitation as part of their act (for instance, Harry Houdini), but professional regurgitators may perform regurgitation exclusively. There appears to be a debate as to whether some of the more extreme demonstrations are true or "tricks". Stevie Starr has apparently swallowed an unsolved Rubik's Cube, then regurgitated a solved cube.

Stevie Starr. Saw him on Britain's got Talent 2010. But they disallowed embedding. He has also appeared on Letterman, Leno etc. This clip has most of his tricks except the goldfish, rubiks cube and keyring one.

These Masterpieces are created by famous Wildlife Sculpture Artist Randall D.Boni. We’ve all seen chainsaw-carved sculptures before, but Mr. Boni’s masterpieces are simply amazing. He is a talented craftsman since he manages to create very delicate sculptures using a chainsaw! See the process of creation of one of his works below
