These cool illustrations from Shane McAdams were created using an unexpectedly fresh media: try ball point pen, oil, and resine on panel. Step into a world of synthetic landscapes that are bursting with scenes of abstract bright colors. Some of the imagery is naturalistic and comfortable, but each piece sports neon colors, even where you’d least expect it. This is the power of pure color right here.

Japanese photographer Shinichi Maruyama’s abstract photo series, “Nudes“, might look like it was created with long-exposure photography, but in reality, each flesh-colored swirl is a composite of ten thousand individual photographs. The subjects of each composite are nude dancers in motion, and the results look almost sculpture-like.

Sometimes simple ideas can be the best – producing results more fruitful then you ever thought possible with the small amount of effort required. One such example of this is found with a tap, a CD and a camera. By simply running water over the shiny surface of a CD and photographing it with a macro lens, amazingly abstract and tantalizingly textured images can be produced. We found some awesome examples by a photographer known as Sknol over on Imgur; check them out below!

Inspiring photography by Benoit Paillé. Reminds me of John Pfahl’s work. Abstract meets nature photography, I’ve always been a fan of that. It’s pure, very zen.

Michael Carini’s creative visions illuminate the human condition as he delves into the uncensored depths of his mind and invites you to catch a glimpse of the other side. It is a journey depicted through weaving blasts of light, color, and energy trapped within the boundlessness of space. As his hands and brush create a musical dialogue and dance across the canvas, Carini describes his technique as a poetically alchemical process based upon the principals of equivalent exchange.

These are a few pieces from an ongoing group of abstract drawings created from an aerial vantage point that vacillates between macro and micro in terms of scale and distance. Inspiration and references come from satellite photography, microscopic imagery, radial irrigation systems used in large scale commercialized agriculture, as well as symbols and marks found throughout major cities.

The mark-making and visual language within these new works is a culmination of fifteen years of previous work that runs from endless doodling to more thought out and fully executed works. Contradictory feelings about the complex systems and order/chaos of major metropolitan cities, as well as thoughts about humanity as a virus motivate the making of this new work.

Carla Fache’s works reflects the universal, the primitiveness, the essential, and the endless language of color. Her command of shapes, shades and layers, and the invisible energy behind them, invites the viewer to build vibrational paradigms framed by the energy of color.

As a recent photography graduate, I am keenly interested in the aesthetics of photographic images. These images are part of a series based upon the artistic nature of architecture and capture the beauty of form and composition in architectural detail. The images are black and white gelatin prints taken with a 35mm camera.

My friend Hermonie Only is a bad-ass artist who seems to have a good handle on symbols and icons, using them boldly and unabashedly. Her abstract and geometric work also have a heft to them that make them stick in the mind even without literal, translatable meaning.

Grün is an Australian band blending elements of post-rock, electronica, alternative and prog-rock. Inspired by diverse artists like Dead Can Dance, Four Tet, Phillip Glass, Tool and Sigur Ros, Grün’s obsession with film and soundtrack clarifies their sound — it’s visual without the visuals, the score to a film that doesn’t exist.

Oil painting of children of different cultures connected by abstract shapes and colors with a line of gold leaf representing the value of life and our link to the future.
