Man secretly snaps London commuters as Flemish paintings


I love a good bit of fun when it comes to my morning look around the web, and these images from Matt Crabtree's 16th Century Tube Passengers series are quite amusing. Matt secretly photographs people on their commute, creatively manipulates the pictures to look like Flemish paintings, and posts them online.

"All these shots are taken, retouched and sent from my phone whilst on the tube journey," he said. "I'm capturing the most of mundane commuter moments with a quiet, classical beauty."

Matt is a self-taught photographer and works as a creative director in a London ad agency, so the rest of his work is definitely worth checking out too.

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.

Unsettling wooden sculptures by Tung Ming-Chin

Tung Ming-Chin is one of my favorite new finds. The Taiwanese artist from Changhua crafts sculptures of human figures that appear to be trapped in wood, crying for help, and trying relentlessly to come out. There's something distinctly unsettling about his work. But, like a good horror movie, you won't turn away. Thanks to Billie, who agrees sculptors are fascinating creatures.
