Eric Andrew Lewis, a web developer at The New York Times, has just created an addictive new web tool that allows you to transform any photo into a colorful collage of emojis. Using Emoji Mosaic is as simple as choosing a photo and clicking "upload." Just be patient because processing may take a while. I wanted to see how well it worked, so I uploaded a picture of Lauren Mayberry. Here's the gorgeous Chvrches singer, who is made of shoes, pigs, pandas, frogs, teddy bears, dollar signs, etc.
If you’re a fan of art that makes you do a double-take, you need to check out Richard Brener . Based in the UK, Richard is an internationally collected artist who works primarily with ink, fineliners, and gouache. When you first see his pieces, they actually look pretty playful. Then you realize the entire canvas is packed with thousands of tiny, ghost-like shapes he calls "champs." They’re all squeezed together like commuters on a rush-hour train, and the level of detail is honestly mind-blowing. Richard spends hundreds of hours drawing these little guys over and over. It’s obsessive, very intentional, and a little bit wild. The cool part is that the longer you stare, the more the vibe shifts. Check out more photos below:
