Just Check out these stunning animals. They're absolutely incredible. Translucent, colorful, oddly shaped, spiky, wiry, egg-like and completely out of this world even though they're from our world. These animal photographs were collected in Ross Piper's new book Animal Earth: The Amazing Diversity of Living Forms.

Gorgeous Watercolors Merge Nature with Chinese Calligraphy
Over 30 years, artist Chuan-Hong
Li has found countless ways to convey the good-looking stylishness of the
Chinese culture through paint. His lively watercolors are filled with a touch
of nature, frequently plum blossoms, lotus, and peonies, that are accompanied
by beautiful calligraphy lettering. Drawing on the traditions and heritage of
the past, Li's work also features a touch of contemporary style.He uses swift brushstrokes to make
the dark branches and bright buds that sweep naturally across the canvas, as
well as the multiple styles of script that he has learned throughout the years.
The refreshing compositions have playful titles like Dancing in Spring and
Endless Vitality, which symbolize the blossoming life that radiates from each
canvas. According to his bio, "His paintings show deep, powerful, active,
and excited images," which are both lively but soothing at the same time
and give viewers with a magnificently peaceful and meditative exhibit of
nature.
