Stella Blu's beautiful watercolors

Instagram has become the world's largest art gallery, with the opportunity to view different types of artwork from talented people around the globe. Thanks to the social networking site, I discovered the beautiful and evocative watercolor portraits of Stella Blu and am now one of her biggest fans. I love the color schemes, the contrast, almost everything about them.

Stella was born in England and moved to the United States when she was six. After that, she grew up in many different places such as Sri Lanka, Texas, Connecticut, and eventually California. Aside from watercolor, she also works in a variety of mediums, including colored pencil and sometimes acrylic and oil paints. From having her work featured in Fox's hit TV series New Girl to designing the cover art for Prince's album 3rdeyegirl, the Los Angles-based artist is already making her mark in the contemporary art scene.

To know more about Stella, be sure to check out her website and her interview with Mass Appeal.

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.

Bats, Cats, and Dancing Skeletons

It’s now been fifty-eight years since Walt Disney died of lung cancer, and as a great way to remember his legacy is watch this short film he did in 1929. It’s truly impressive, and you can still see the impact he made on animation today.

Acorn-shaped meditation pod

Created by LFZ Studio , this giant acorn in France is a cool space to escape the digital deluge. For some, the wooden pod is a temporary escape from reality. For others, it’s a nice place to take a nap. And for a select few, it’s a nerve-wracking dive into claustrophobia. The pod blends perfectly with the forest and the gentle rustling of leaves and the distant chirping of birds create a natural soundtrack for meditation. In this sanctuary, time seems to slow down, allowing for a deeper connection with oneself and nature. |h/t: Design Boom |
