Stefan Bleekrode draws detailed cityscapes entirely from memory

Stefan Bleekrode's cityscape drawings have a hypnotic power that invites viewers to look closer. What's even more surprising is that he creates fascinating sketches of famous cities using his memory.

The Dutch artist starts off with a quick pencil sketch on paper. He then adds ink and uses ivory black watercolors for shading. He can finish a small drawing in 30 hours, while large-scale illustrations take him up to half a year to complete.

Most of the ideas Stefan uses for his compositions come from trips abroad, as he often travels around Europe and the United States. However, some of his drawings are imaginary, such as Metropolis at Night (pictured below).

Stefan reminds me of Stephen Wiltshire, who is also famous for producing highly detailed scenes after just a brief glance.

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.

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.
