Pop culture meets classic paintings

Eisen Bernardo is a Filipino graphic artist, multimedia producer and writer that I came across about a year ago. He is known for superimposing magazine covers, album artworks, logos, and DVD covers into classic paintings, creating quirky mash-ups of modern and old-fashioned art. It's time-consuming, because Eisen had to scour through countless collections of artworks and paintings to find the right match.

Some of his works include a Vanity Fair cover featuring Miley Cyrus cleverly combined with the Portrait of Madame Récamier, a painting by French artist Jacques-Louis David. An album cover starring Sky Ferreira was also superimposed on Henry Robert Morland's A Lady's Maid Soaping Linen. Check out some of his interesting mash-ups below, and be sure to see all of his various collections here.

Enigmatic Shapes and Psychedelic Patterns

To say that I love Sanagi 's work is an understatement. Looking at her art feels sort of therapeutic, and I find her drawings refreshingly intricate. They're trippy, psychedelic, and resemble something that you might see under a microscope. Not much is Googleable about Sanagi, but that's fine. There aren't many artists these days that still pull off the whole mysterious vibe, so I commend her for that. By the way... they're all hand-drawn with pen and ink.

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.

Details from lucid dreams

If Audrey Stomme s' paintings came alive and transformed into celebrities, they would be Alicia Vikander or Cara Delevingne — confident, perky, and unabashedly luxe. The Minnesota-based artist has a knack for blending ink and acrylic paint in striking combinations to create abstract human forms with an exciting curiosity surging through them. Her pieces brim with courage and exhibit the inherent freedom of her subconscious. Sometimes I'm not sure what I'm looking at, but it still fascinates me.
