'Black is a Color' by Tim Tadder

This is a video of photographer Tim Tadder detailing the technique of pouring thick layers of multi-colored paint on people to achieve striking, technicolor portraits. The project is called Black is a Color, and the results are pretty amazing.

Thanks to my good friend Liam, who told me he's gonna try this over the weekend. Nice, let me know how it goes and if you think I'm capable. Check out more of Tim's work on his Instagram.

Irene Saputra's Colorful Stitched Pieces

Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo
