No, these are not a photographs


Kamalky Laureano's acrylic paintings are so intricate a lot of people mistake them for photos. The artist, who hails from the Dominican Republic, creates jaw-dropping artworks that vibrate with emotion and energy. 

On his bio, it reads: "My work is motivated by my feelings toward how I experience my life. Art is communication. It is the conscious living of the world around us in every second. My subjects captivate me as if they were music and melodies. I feel compelled to listen to them and play back their song the way I hear it. I am inspired by the singer's face that sings to me every day."





Kamalky's skills with a brush are undeniable. If you're a big fan of hyperrealistic paintings, check out his online portfolio, or follow him on Instagram. He also has some clips on his YouTube channel.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Thai artist paints on mosquito nets

I find them quite intriguing, these ghostly portraits that Uttaporn Nimmalaikaew paints on mosquito nets. His creations look like a hologram, changing form depending on where the viewer stands. Overall, they're gloomy, haunting, and endlessly fascinating. I could stare at them for ages. [h/t: Colossal ]
