Sometimes street artist creates
lovely images beyond the thoughts, similar Brazilian artist Luis Seven Martins
Aka L7m, continues to produce amazing illustrations that blur the lines between
abstraction and nature. Rather than taking to the streets, this time L7m turned
his spray paint and acrylics to a number of canvases. His animated collection
features stunning bird forms that develop from a stunningly chaotic background.
It's as if the creatures are serenely emerging from the energetic confusion of
his blended brush strokes. Luis actually uses a diversity of techniques to produce
circular swirls of bold colors that are juxtaposed with the realistic birds.
His signature style adds motion to every piece and creates a sense of disorder
that emanates from the composition. Through his work, L7m attempts to make
"contradictions and scratchy feelings in the observers" by exploring thoughts
of nature and attractiveness mixed with the chaos of our urban environment.

The Beautiful Leaden Flycatcher
The beautiful Leaden Flycatcher
is a species of passerine bird in the family Monarchidae. The birds specs
around 6 inches in length, while the male is a shiny lead-grey with white under
parts, while the female has grey upper parts and a rufous throat and breast. You
can find this bird in eastern and northern Australia, Papua New Guinea &
Indonesia. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical mangrove forests in
the northern parts of its range, in the south and inland it is eucalypt
woodland. Its specific name, rubecula, comes from the Latin for Robin, and in
Sydney it is called Frogbird derived from its guttural call. John Gould described and named the Pretty
Flycatcher in 1848, which has since been subsumed into this species. Leaden
Flycatcher is very active and agile bird; it hops among branches and catches
insects in flight. Normally bird breeding seasons is September to February. The
Leaden Flycatcher is found in tall and medium open forests, mostly in coastal
areas, selecting drier habitats than the Satin Flycatcher. The Leaden
Flycatcher feeds on insects caught while on the wing or gleaned from foliage
and feed in the mid-canopy, darting from tree to tree in pairs or
unaccompanied, perching only temporarily on exposed twigs where they call and
fan their short crests.

Artist experiments with colorful tinted paints & water to create beautifully abstract, hypnotizing formations.
Artist Kim Keever who belongs to
New York, experiments with colourful tinted paints and water to create stunning
abstract hypnotizing formations. Keever was former thermal engineer for NASA
project tends to veer his work towards the scientific and experimental. To
create this specific style, the gifted artist drops several amounts of color
into water and documents the swirling liquids as they blend and mingle. Keever
uses a huge 200-gallon fish tank as the setting for much of his effort, which
offers sufficiently of space for the extremely unpredictable reactions to
emerge. Staring at the enthralling photographs is a related experience to
pointing out shapes between the clouds. Within the blobs, swirls, and trickles
of color, spectators might instigate to imagine recognizable forms like fabric
or faces, and specific of the swirls almost solid enough to touch.
