The internet is obsessed with this teen who transforms herself into iconic female characters


Tons of girls have an Instagram account full of self-portraits, and Annelies van Overbeek is no exception. But there's a twist: the 17-year-old fashion blogger from Belgium transforms herself into iconic female characters from all ages. From Sabrina's Audrey Hepburn to The Great Gatsby's Carey Mulligan, there's no look that Annelies can't accomplish with the right make-up, hairstyle, outfit and accessories.

Her IG account has accumulated more than 60,000 followers, many of whom have expressed deep admiration for her ability to manipulate her facial expressions to completely turn herself into vintage and historic personalities. Check out more of her photos and give her a follow @bewitchedquills.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

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.

A Look at Karl Arnaiz's "Duality"

It 's me,  not the artist.

This 36 x 27-inch piece in charcoal and watercolor isn't just art that looks pretty on a wall. It's art that makes you stop, think, and maybe even re-evaluate how you see the world. Karl Arnaiz paints a meditation on death and its contrasting yet inevitable connection with life. In Duality, he explores the darker corners of the human experience.

How sculptor Ptolemy Elrington turns old hubcaps into works of art

One British artist has found treasure in the junk that some people throw away and, using his creativity and resourcefulness, turns it into metal masterpieces.  Ptolemy Elrington, who is currently based in Brighton, England, takes abandoned hubcaps and repurposes them into spectacular animal sculptures using hand tools and wire. Ptolemy specializes in wheel trims, but any piece of discarded metal scrap is a potential art masterpiece in his eyes. His creations can take anything from a single day to three months, such as the ten-meter long dragon he built from 200 hubcaps, which sold for £3,000. Check out the video, embedded below, and  his website for more. [h/t: FREEYORK ]
