Caroline Morin discovered her love for art in her earliest years. However, it was only recently that she started putting her dreams into practice.

In 2016, she started sharing her marvelous talent with the world, bringing humor to the streets with the power of her art. Using street items such as grids, pebbles, cracks on the wall, and much more, Lyon is becoming more vivid and colorful thanks to her.

The France-based Morin said in a statement for Instagram that she thinks she might suffer from pareidolia: a psychological phenomenon where a specific, often meaningful image is perceived in a random or ambiguous visual pattern.

“I love having fun, playing, and seeing life on the bright side,” Morin shared. However, she also expressed her misfortune that people are always in a hurry and can’t enjoy the things that are around them. “People are generally rushing all the time. I love to take my time and look deeply at everything. I observe a lot and notice small details. My brain is always on.”

If you live in Lyon, you can see her artworks in real-time, but if you are coming from the other side of the planet, you can check her creations in the gallery below.

🇬🇧 see below ⬇ 🇵🇹 A Sé de Lisboa ou a Igreja de Santa Maria Maior é a mais antiga igreja católica romana da cidade! A sua construção começou em 1147 e terminou nas primeiras décadas do século XIII, mas foi modificada várias vezes após desastres naturais pelo que hoje em dia é uma mistura de diferentes estilos arquitectónicos, nomeadamente românico, gótico e barroco. Foi classificada como Monumento Nacional em 1910 e é um ex-libris de Lisboa. Tive tanta sorte que ainda fui brindado pela passagem do eléctrico, outro clássico! Gostaram? . . . 🇬🇧 The Sé de Lisboa (Lisbon’s cathedral) or Santa Maria Maior Church is the oldest Roman Catholic church in the city!

It was classified as a National Monument in 1910 and is one of Lisbon’s ex-libris. I was so lucky I was surprised by the passage of the tram, another classic!

🇬🇧 see below ⬇ 🇵🇹 Esta é a belíssima Torre de Belém, um ícone do nosso país, cuja história foi marcada pela proximidade ao oceano e as descobertas marítimas de novos mundos. Erguida na margem norte do rio Tejo entre 1514 e 1520, estava nessa altura completamente cercada pelas águas que ao longo dos séculos recuaram, deixando-na envolvida pela praia, até encontrar terra firme. Esta jóia arquitectónica do reinado de D. Manuel I é composta pela torre medieval e pelo baluarte com dois níveis de disparo de artilharia, traduzindo a sua missão de defesa do estuário do Tejo. Está classificada pela UNESCO em 1983 como “Património Cultural da Humanidade" e é possivelmente o monumento português mais fotografado! Vale uma visita, não acham? . . . 🇬🇧 This is the beautiful Torre de Belém, an icon of our country, whose history was marked by the proximity to the ocean and the maritime discoveries of new worlds. Erected on the north bank of the Tagus River between 1514 and 1520, it was at that time completely surrounded by the waters that over the centuries retreated, leaving it surrounded by the beach, until it found land. This architectural jewel of the reign of D. Manuel I is composed of the medieval tower and the bastion with two levels of artillery fire, translating its mission to defend the Tagus estuary. It is classified by UNESCO in 1983 as "Cultural Heritage of Humanity" and is possibly the most photographed Portuguese monument!

Illustrator and animator Jun Cen is the sort of artist your favorite artists are following. Known for his careful compositions that take into account the invisible movement that takes place within each scene, his work presents slices of everyday life, celebrating the inner magic of the mundane.

“Interestingly when I create a still image, I always imagine the motion of it,” Cen recounted in an interview with Tiny Pencil, where he explained the ways in which his animation informs his illustration work and vice versa. “But when we come to the difference between them, I would say making an animation is more of the montage of a series of images no matter if they move or not,” he went on to explain. “Because the montage itself is the main movement of a film. When I am working on a drawing, I also think about the movement. Composition does create movement as well. But it would be the movement within the image itself only.”

Born in Guangzhou, China, Cen received his MFA in Illustration degree from Maryland Institute College of Art in 2013, and is currently based in New York where his work has received much praise both online and offline. With recognition from The Society of Illustrators, American Illustration, 3×3 Illustration Competition, amongst others, his illustrations are constantly featured in publications like The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Boston Globe.

“I tend to create an atmosphere in my work,” he notes. “And the characters (if a piece has characters) naturally react to the atmosphere I create.” You’d want to engage with his work as well.

Miniature artist Susete Saraiva describes herself as an artist summoning tiny demons. Wholly committed to the art of the tiny, her miniatures – gothic, Halloweenish, and enchanting – speak to our inner emo child. Her work includes recreations of horror movie sets, and nods to your favorite witches and monsters.

According to Saraiva, she enjoys most creating miniature representations of houses seen in horror movies. “I love the idea of taking some of my favorite homes and bringing them to life in miniature form to display,” she told The Daily Mini. “They are also my most challenging pieces, which in the end gives me the most satisfaction when finally complete.”

A post shared by monstresss (@monstresss) on

Like most miniature artists, Saraiva’s fascination with tiny figurines began early on. “I’ve been collecting 7′ figures for years, and with that I began doing toy photography for fun,” she notes. “That hobby slowly led me to the idea of creating miniature props and scale backgrounds/dioramas for more realistic photos. From that point on, I found that my love for miniatures was growing daily and this inspired me to take my ideas down a few scales.”

But surprisingly enough, she admits to being equally fascinated with horror films as a small child. “My love with horror definitely began around the age of 5, when I snuck into the living room while The Exorcist was on TV,” she recalls. “My fascination overpowered the fear I felt at the time which slowly turned into an obsession: the thrill of being frightened.”

Enjoy some of her work in the gallery below. Either that or prepare to be spooked.

Some inspiring messages speak louder than others. Such are Timothy Goodman’s words. A designer, illustrator, muralist, and author, his messages are splashed on anything from magazine covers and clothes to walls and, sometimes, whole buildings.

But whether it’s a large-scale public mural on the streets of NYC, a marker scrawling on a Uniqlo t-shirt, or a post on Instagram, Goodman wants his words to pack a punch – hoping to spark dialogues surrounding difficult subjects such as heartbreak, politics, and mental health.

“I just want to create art that people can connect to,” he admitted in a candid interview with Eye on Design. “With so many of the stories I’m trying to tell, I’m trying to make things for actual people. I think sharing your personal stories is sort of activism; when you connect to other lonely people in the world, I think there’s a service involved that is really powerful. I want to continue to use my work as a vehicle for that.”

According to Godman, the greatest joy in being an artist is the ability to connect to other humans emotionally through his work and words. “If I can’t connect to someone seeing my work on an emotional level, then I don’t know why I’m doing it,” he says. “How do you interact with a great film or a great book or a great album? You’re connecting with it emotionally.”

With almost 170k followers on Instagram, people seem to be connecting. And it’s not only people who hear him out. His clients also include giants like Google, Samsung, Uniqlo, Target, Airbnb, Netflix, and The New Yorker. Take a look for yourself:

Not everyone has the opportunity to visit museums and enjoy fine art and classical paintings in person. That is why Julio Anaya Cabanding decided to bring the famous museum paintings outdoors. 

The Madrid-based street artist recreates the works of Caspar David Friedrich, Johannes Vermeer, Enrique Simonet, and many more, painting them on walls of buildings and ruins, and allowing bypassers to enjoy them.
Cabanding art gives an idea on how famous paintings can fit into urban environments.

“The result is not only a painting that pretends to be a painting and a relationship with an environment,” says Cabanding, “it is also the action of taking the picture of the museum, stealing the image… and the sacrum of the institution to put it in another place, in a place where it is never seen or seen in a different way.”

25-year-old Simon Nogueira could be described in a number of ways including daredevil, adrenaline junkie, or acrobat. But if you ask him, he is just a freerunner.

While most Parisians and tourists explore the city from the ground, this Parisian young man decided to see a different side of the city. Nogueira is routinely climbing the rooftops of Paris to satisfy his curiosity and desire for adventure. Luckily for us, he also manages to snap a few photos along the way.

Nogueira documents his rooftops adventures on his social media pages and regularly shares amazing photos which show him hanging on cranes, balancing on narrow funnels, and doing all sorts of palm-sweating activities.

We love a good mural, and if it involves an inspiring message all the better! Jan Is De Man, an artist from the Netherlands, together with
street artist Deef Feed, painted a stunning mural bookcase on an apartment building in the city of Utrecht.

“The first idea was to paint a smiley. A very big smiley. Because I believe people become happier when they see a smiley every day. But this idea didn’t feel complete, it felt too simple,” he said.

“I studied the shape of the house and the location where this house stands in and suddenly the idea of making a huge bookcase hit me. I love making illusions on walls and I like to see smiles on people’s faces and this idea (I thought meanwhile) could bring all this together,” he continued.

We think this couldn’t have turned out better!

🇬🇧 see below ⬇ 🇵🇹 A Sé de Lisboa ou a Igreja de Santa Maria Maior é a mais antiga igreja católica romana da cidade! A sua construção começou em 1147 e terminou nas primeiras décadas do século XIII, mas foi modificada várias vezes após desastres naturais pelo que hoje em dia é uma mistura de diferentes estilos arquitectónicos, nomeadamente românico, gótico e barroco. Foi classificada como Monumento Nacional em 1910 e é um ex-libris de Lisboa. Tive tanta sorte que ainda fui brindado pela passagem do eléctrico, outro clássico! Gostaram? . . . 🇬🇧 The Sé de Lisboa (Lisbon’s cathedral) or Santa Maria Maior Church is the oldest Roman Catholic church in the city!

🇬🇧 see below ⬇ 🇵🇹 Esta é a belíssima Torre de Belém, um ícone do nosso país, cuja história foi marcada pela proximidade ao oceano e as descobertas marítimas de novos mundos. Erguida na margem norte do rio Tejo entre 1514 e 1520, estava nessa altura completamente cercada pelas águas que ao longo dos séculos recuaram, deixando-na envolvida pela praia, até encontrar terra firme. Esta jóia arquitectónica do reinado de D. Manuel I é composta pela torre medieval e pelo baluarte com dois níveis de disparo de artilharia, traduzindo a sua missão de defesa do estuário do Tejo. Está classificada pela UNESCO em 1983 como “Património Cultural da Humanidade" e é possivelmente o monumento português mais fotografado! Vale uma visita, não acham? . . . 🇬🇧 This is the beautiful Torre de Belém, an icon of our country, whose history was marked by the proximity to the ocean and the maritime discoveries of new worlds. Erected on the north bank of the Tagus River between 1514 and 1520, it was at that time completely surrounded by the waters that over the centuries retreated, leaving it surrounded by the beach, until it found land. This architectural jewel of the reign of D. Manuel I is composed of the medieval tower and the bastion with two levels of artillery fire, translating its mission to defend the Tagus estuary. It is classified by UNESCO in 1983 as "Cultural Heritage of Humanity" and is possibly the most photographed Portuguese monument!

Illustrator and animator Jun Cen is the sort of artist your favorite artists are following. Known for his careful compositions that take into account the invisible movement that takes place within each scene, his work presents slices of everyday life, celebrating the inner magic of the mundane.

“Interestingly when I create a still image, I always imagine the motion of it,” Cen recounted in an interview with Tiny Pencil, where he explained the ways in which his animation informs his illustration work and vice versa. “But when we come to the difference between them, I would say making an animation is more of the montage of a series of images no matter if they move or not,” he went on to explain. “Because the montage itself is the main movement of a film. When I am working on a drawing, I also think about the movement. Composition does create movement as well. But it would be the movement within the image itself only.”

Born in Guangzhou, China, Cen received his MFA in Illustration degree from Maryland Institute College of Art in 2013, and is currently based in New York where his work has received much praise both online and offline. With recognition from The Society of Illustrators, American Illustration, 3×3 Illustration Competition, amongst others, his illustrations are constantly featured in publications like The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Boston Globe.

“I tend to create an atmosphere in my work,” he notes. “And the characters (if a piece has characters) naturally react to the atmosphere I create.” You’d want to engage with his work as well.

Miniature artist Susete Saraiva describes herself as an artist summoning tiny demons. Wholly committed to the art of the tiny, her miniatures – gothic, Halloweenish, and enchanting – speak to our inner emo child. Her work includes recreations of horror movie sets, and nods to your favorite witches and monsters.

According to Saraiva, she enjoys most creating miniature representations of houses seen in horror movies. “I love the idea of taking some of my favorite homes and bringing them to life in miniature form to display,” she told The Daily Mini. “They are also my most challenging pieces, which in the end gives me the most satisfaction when finally complete.”

Like most miniature artists, Saraiva’s fascination with tiny figurines began early on. “I’ve been collecting 7′ figures for years, and with that I began doing toy photography for fun,” she notes. “That hobby slowly led me to the idea of creating miniature props and scale backgrounds/dioramas for more realistic photos. From that point on, I found that my love for miniatures was growing daily and this inspired me to take my ideas down a few scales.”

But surprisingly enough, she admits to being equally fascinated with horror films as a small child. “My love with horror definitely began around the age of 5, when I snuck into the living room while The Exorcist was on TV,” she recalls. “My fascination overpowered the fear I felt at the time which slowly turned into an obsession: the thrill of being frightened.”

Enjoy some of her work in the gallery below. Either that or prepare to be spooked.

Back in 2018, Guy Jones published a video on Youtube showing footage filmed by a Swedish film crew from Svenska Biografteatern in 1911 in New York City. Jones restored the video and added sound to it in order to make it more realistic, and two years later, another guy took it to another level.

Video editor Denis Shiryaev worked on the said video adding color to it and boosting its resolution to 4k, so now we can see even better how life in New York in 1911 looked like.

“Restored with neural networks 1911 New York footage taken by the Swedish company Svenska Biografteatern on a trip to America,” he wrote along with the video. See it below and find Jones’ video underneath it.

Some inspiring messages speak louder than others. Such are Timothy Goodman’s words. A designer, illustrator, muralist, and author, his messages are splashed on anything from magazine covers and clothes to walls and, sometimes, whole buildings.

But whether it’s a large-scale public mural on the streets of NYC, a marker scrawling on a Uniqlo t-shirt, or a post on Instagram, Goodman wants his words to pack a punch – hoping to spark dialogues surrounding difficult subjects such as heartbreak, politics, and mental health.

“I just want to create art that people can connect to,” he admitted in a candid interview with Eye on Design. “With so many of the stories I’m trying to tell, I’m trying to make things for actual people. I think sharing your personal stories is sort of activism; when you connect to other lonely people in the world, I think there’s a service involved that is really powerful. I want to continue to use my work as a vehicle for that.”

According to Godman, the greatest joy in being an artist is the ability to connect to other humans emotionally through his work and words. “If I can’t connect to someone seeing my work on an emotional level, then I don’t know why I’m doing it,” he says. “How do you interact with a great film or a great book or a great album? You’re connecting with it emotionally.”

With almost 170k followers on Instagram, people seem to be connecting. And it’s not only people who hear him out. His clients also include giants like Google, Samsung, Uniqlo, Target, Airbnb, Netflix, and The New Yorker. Take a look for yourself:

Not everyone has the opportunity to visit museums and enjoy fine art and classical paintings in person. That is why Julio Anaya Cabanding decided to bring the famous museum paintings outdoors. 

The Madrid-based street artist recreates the works of Caspar David Friedrich, Johannes Vermeer, Enrique Simonet, and many more, painting them on walls of buildings and ruins, and allowing bypassers to enjoy them.
Cabanding art gives an idea on how famous paintings can fit into urban environments.

“The result is not only a painting that pretends to be a painting and a relationship with an environment,” says Cabanding, “it is also the action of taking the picture of the museum, stealing the image… and the sacrum of the institution to put it in another place, in a place where it is never seen or seen in a different way.”

Check out some of Cabanding’s works below.

25-year-old Simon Nogueira could be described in a number of ways including daredevil, adrenaline junkie, or acrobat. But if you ask him, he is just a freerunner.

While most Parisians and tourists explore the city from the ground, this Parisian young man decided to see a different side of the city. Nogueira is routinely climbing the rooftops of Paris to satisfy his curiosity and desire for adventure. Luckily for us, he also manages to snap a few photos along the way.

Nogueira documents his rooftops adventures on his social media pages and regularly shares amazing photos which show him hanging on cranes, balancing on narrow funnels, and doing all sorts of palm-sweating activities.

If you ever wanted to take a tour across the rooftops of Paris but were too afraid of the height, then enjoy in some of our favorite Nogueira’s photos below.

We love a good mural, and if it involves an inspiring message all the better! Jan Is De Man, an artist from the Netherlands, together with
street artist Deef Feed, painted a stunning mural bookcase on an apartment building in the city of Utrecht.

“The first idea was to paint a smiley. A very big smiley. Because I believe people become happier when they see a smiley every day. But this idea didn’t feel complete, it felt too simple,” he said.

“I studied the shape of the house and the location where this house stands in and suddenly the idea of making a huge bookcase hit me. I love making illusions on walls and I like to see smiles on people’s faces and this idea (I thought meanwhile) could bring all this together,” he continued.

We think this couldn’t have turned out better!
