Inspiration Elsewhere

A little longer/bigger Inspiration Elsewhere post today. Enjoy!


I'm hypnotize by this painting - Iron Curtain by Kevin Chupik - from his Femme Fatale series. I can't get enough of the sensual texture in his works. Wonderful (via Lost in E Minor)



Quirky retro cameras cookies by Manjar. Sweet! (via A Merry Mishap)




Ah... Angelica Husten. Her look is so unique that it can't be mistaken for anyone else no matter her age, the place and time.
Those photos are from the Halston book (via Cat Party)



Red Velvet shoes by Janae Hardy. How lovely is that? (via Beautiful Mess)







Cinema Hotel was originally one of the first cinemas in Tel Aviv (back then named "Esther" after the owner's wife Nathaniel Moses).
The building is one of around 4,000 Bauhaus buildings built in Tel Aviv from the 1930s, what is now known to be the White City of Tel-Aviv - an UNESCO world heritage city.
I saw it a couple of times as a cinema when I was a kid and many years later standing empty and sad. It really warmed my heart to see it go back to its glory and the beautiful way it was renovated while keeping the place's spirit.




Mind blowing architecture photography by Maria Luisa (click on the photos to go to their orignal Flickr set).





You know how attracted I am to street art. I'm probably not made of the right stuff that make artist take their art out. So here's a little something for people like me, who still want to get their hands dirty and paint on walls: The ultra cool Walls sketchbook is filled with over 80 photos of New York walls instead of blank pages. Now all you have to do is hold on your pens and start painting the walls of NY one by one! How brilliant is that?

Dreamy photography by Lukasz Wierzbowski.




Damien Hirst's Psalm Prints. Look closely - those are butterflies paintings that make a large silkscreen collage.



This photo made my day today: Charlie Chaplins take to streets of London to shoot a short film, marking the launch of Virgin's Short Film Competition (via MindFood Magazine)



Blik is A short animation tells the story of a young boy who moves to a new neighbourhood and falls in love for the first time.

Seriously one of the best animations I've seen lately. I was amazed at how beautifully emotional it is and how the characters express so much with their blank faces.
Made by the creative guys at Polder Animation.

Happy Friday friends!
