I love these hyper-expressive portraits by French painter Françoise Nielly. Filled with fluorescent colors and bold strokes, some faces appear gripped by anxiety, some are hiding secrets, some want to strike-out at the next person they see.
Nielly lives and works near Montmartre in Paris and just finished her latest exhibition at the Villa del . . . → Read More: Portraits by Françoise Nielly

Need a strong yet silent way to get a message across? I love Farhad Moshiri‘s solution to writing “Life is Beautiful” on a wall. “Life is Beautiful” was a 2009 installation by the Iranian artist. Intense!

Being the owner of an almost always dirty car, I would love to have the artist Scott Wade transform my windshield into one of these amazing landscapes.

Lovely!

I love how Adelaide, Australia-based artist Emma Uber uses pastels to create these wonderful portraits. In the hands of Uber, the colors from the pastel sticks appear to melt and blend on the canvas/paper. Beautiful!

Sao Paolo, Brazil-based photographer Valentino Fiadini photographed these miniature Lego rooms in a way that makes them look like the actual rooms from the interior of a building. With light streaming through their windows, these spaces, which alternate between pristine white and eye-popping colorful, could belong to an art museum, a public transit hub, . . . → Read More: Interior spaces created by Lego blocks
