]]>JPS manages to bring together the art and the urban environment that serves as his canvas. As a result, his works always look perfectly placed, and the viewer can immediately figure out why the particular location was picked out. Often, the art itself interacts with objects and buildings that surround it.
“The settings in which I paint my work are very important to me. Everything has a place in my eyes,” JPS shared in a recent interview.
JPS became a well-respected name in the street art world thanks to his original style. His works are diverse and cover many subjects, from pop culture to horror scenes. Occasionally, he also engages in a satirical commentary of the current events, which could be interpreted as a nod to the world’s most famous street artist Banksy. Both artists are from Bristol, and Banksy was actually the reason why JPS even started making street art. Still, this is where their connection ends.
“I do consider my work very different his as I draw my ideas and inspirations from either things I love or sometimes even bad memories from my past,” JPS explains.
Most of JPS’s street art can be found in his hometown of Bristol, but over the years, he also created all over the world, including the United States, Norway, and Germany. Check out more of his works below.

]]>Their work begins with some serious amount of research, studying pictures and illustrations to create their vision. “Our creative process always begins with making sketches of our ideas, or even writing them down and discussing them together,” they relayed in an interview with Arctic Paper. “Then we research the subject and start the actual work. We may change something in the process, but in most cases, we know what we want and move towards our goal. It is great to be completely absorbed in the project and to work around the clock.”
Drawing from fashion history, their costumes include interpretations of Baroque dress-wear. “I think we long for something long-forgotten, as popular culture puts too much emphasis on technical progress and efficiency,” explained Dmitriy. “This is why we love the Baroque era. The value of those wigs were primarily aesthetic, they were notably uncomfortable to wear, but they were also wonderfully beautiful and exquisite, not necessarily practical or having a powerful message. I think people are so tired of special effects.”
Other projects include paper wedding dresses and paper masks. “Dmitriy is the innovator, the fearless dreamer and the adventurer,” says Asya. “I am the thorough hardworking perfectionist.”
The end result is simply stunning:

]]>Textile Lucy Poskitt is prepared to teach us what it takes. Based in Victoria, BC, she teaches weaving workshops across Canada, but you can also be inspired from afar by following her Instagram page.
Working with a looser and more experimental hand, Poskitt draws inspiration from local landscapes and lore and works with the belief that with the proper techniques under your belt you can confidently create and explore your own style.
According to Poskitt, workshop materials and supplies are locally sourced or handmade when possible.”Most of my professional work is made with traditional materials–wool, linen, and cotton yarn,” she noted in an interview with KOEL Stories. “When I’m creatively stuck or have time to play around, I really enjoy more unusual, less traditional fibers–horsehair, leather scraps, paper, ropes and trims, wood veneer, mylar… you name it!”
Her techniques include frame-loom weaving—a style of weaving that is fast to set up, easy to use, and portable. According to her website, this technique is most often used to make tapestry-style weavings, ie – decorative art pieces that will hang on the wall as art when completed – but looms can also be used for making small pieces that could be used as jewellery, placemats, coasters, a bit of fabric to use as a panel on a cushion, and more.

But, would you expect anything less from Vogue? Since the challenge went viral on Twitter and Instagram, an official Dogue Instagram has been created which is managed by two-dog lovers from Poland.
#piesel #spacerek #przyjacielczlowieka #piesekwarszawski #piesekThe Instagram creators were inspired to create dogs in an original way and they wanted to focus on how “beautiful and versatile dogs are.”
“They are cute and sweet but I also wanted to show some beauty in a fun, easy way,” a representative from the Instagram page told Bored Panda.
because you know I’m all about that bass! 
When deciding which dogs to feature on the covers they look on Instagram for interesting dogs and when the pandemic is over they plan on having shelter dogs on the covers to help them find forever homes.
“Making all of these covers is just pure joy for me, I hope that looking at them brings a smile to you and others,” they added.

]]>The post This Embroidery Artist is Inspired by People and Places appeared first on 5dwallpaper.com.
]]>“My work has developed hugely over the last few years,” she wrote in a piece for Inky Goodness, “informed by some big life decisions like moving abroad and pursuing a very particular artistic path. I’ve been really lucky to be surrounded by a positive, creative environment and have been greatly inspired by the people and places around me.”
According to Menzies, she had always loved illustrating and designing her own clothes. But it was after moving to Barcelona to study for a master’s in illustration that she discovered a passion for embroidery. “It’s impossible not to be inspired when living in Barcelona,” she says, “the grit of the city contrasted with the idyllic coastline.”
With each project, Menzies finds different meanings and uses a different set of techniques and styles to achieve a unique outcome. The embroideries are all designed and hand-sewn by her. She creates the designs on paper or digitally, after which she converts them to fabric. “It’s particularly fun to work with someone creative on their own unique piece,” she notes, “involving them in the process and seeing what ideas they want to express. I’m not afraid to step out of my comfort zone to explore different styles when working with another illustrator.”
Show her some love on Instagram.

]]>The post Hikari Shimoda Paints Menacing (But Cute) Characters appeared first on 5dwallpaper.com.
]]>According to Shimoda, she would copy the drawings and, over time, taught herself how to draw cartoons. “In addition, since I was in high school, I like looking at illustration online — which was very important for me,” she notes. “All these pieces of pop culture are very familiar in my life, ones that give the most impact.”
Her work, both charming and alarming, portrays a world where cuteness and horror coexist, expressing modern-day issues in colorful and illustrative techniques. Often depicting starry-eyed children, Shimoda dresses her characters in superhero costumes, revealing problems and struggles in contemporary society.
“For me, this is my most effective means to convey my emotions and feelings to other people,” says Shimoda, “but they are not ‘human’ children. I like to use the example of magical girls (shojo) because they are inspired by human girls but they are characters.” The result is eerie and detached, albeit increasingly cute.
Naturally, Shimoda’s work tends to create quite a buzz both online and offline. Having held exhibitions in galleries worldwide, including Japan, the United States, Canada, and Europe, she has also amassed more than 95k followers on Instagram. Here are some of our favorite pieces by her:

I wish you all a happy day of love! 
I painted this floral inspired piece for my 2019 solo show, "Can Pop Art Show the Way to Nirvana?" & it’s one of my favorite paintings I’ve ever done. 
#hikarishimoda #anime #art #happyvalentinesday
and my studio is filled with teddy bears and other stuffed animals! So I’m always bringing them to work with me! If I have the chance, I’ll buy them from flea markets and thrift shops by the pile! They’ve crept into my paintings 
a few times over the years, most recently in my series “Children on the Edge – 14 Years Old”, which is unique because unlike my other works, this series is painted from life. This is #1 in the series which I painted for my 2018 solo show @coreyhelfordgallery – you can see the entire series on my website!

]]>The post Lauren Fitzmaurice Lifts Others with Letters appeared first on 5dwallpaper.com.
]]>“My favorite way to explore new styles is to pick up a pencil or brush pen and just start writing,” she shared with Surely Simple. “Yes, there are tons of inspiring people on Instagram and it’s ok to find things that you like in others’ work, but the best way to find your own style is to put down the phone, get out the pens, and just practice until you find what you love.”
. Also, there is something so satisfying about pointed pen calligraphy… and this gold ink can even make the word “darkest” bright and amazing. It’s all in your perspective… let’s choose the bright side!
A left-handed calligrapher and lettering artist from Owensboro, Kentucky, Fitzmaurice found her love of calligraphy while taking an online calligraphy class on her search to find a way to be creative in her busy schedule. Having started lettering and calligraphy in January of 2015 with pointed pen calligraphy, she picked up her first Tombow brush pen about a year after that.
As a lefty, she had to teach herself techniques on how to hold her pen. Though she admits she still has the occasional smear, she agrees practice has helped minimize lefty pangs. After taking on an envelope addressing job, she was hooked and has been loving all things letters ever since.
According to Fitzmaurice, lifting others with letters is her ultimate goal and she currently strives to teach others the art of calligraphy through her blog, her Brit and Co class Lettering for Lefties, and in-person workshops. In addition to learning new techniques for herself, she gives tips to her followers to help them achieve the best result. Follow her tips and tricks on Instagram:
). This quote truly struck a chord with me today. “It takes great courage to see the world in all it’s tainted glory and still to love it.” -Oscar Wilde Goodness… our world right now… all of the things so many are going through… literally everything we are called to do right now takes courage -staying home takes courage -being a front line worker or essential worker takes mega courage (thank you) -homeschooling and changing our norm takes courage -Doing what’s best for others over inconvenience takes courage -making the most of every day we are given despite what we are going through takes courage -being away from ones we love and love us right back -telling our kids and our friends… and even ourselves that it’s not ok right now but it will be ok later takes courage. -taking time for self care takes courage. And the list could go on and on. So let’s be courageous, do the hard things and try to keep our hearts grateful… because even in all the mess… all the uncertainty… the anxiety… there is beauty and goodness in the world. It just takes all of our courage to see it through.

]]>“The simplicity is the best part,” she reflected in an interview with Acclaim Magazine. “It’s also primitive.” According to Bouma, she finds the fact that people were, and still are, willing to endure pain for pleasure attractive. “There’s satisfaction in laying something so permanent into a person’s skin by means of a tactful hand, and their willingness to put up with the pain in order the receive something they really want,” she says. “I’m humbled by that. Even more so humbled that friends and strangers want me to do it.”
Originally from Edmonton, Canada, Bouma travels full time internationally and is based part-time in NYC, at East River Tattoo in Brooklyn. According to her website, she usually only tattoos black and grey pieces but is open to experimentation with color under the right circumstances. Palm-sized tattoos usually take between 1-2 hours to complete, while hand-sized take about 3 hours. Back pieces, on the other hand, vary from 22- 40 hours depending on back size, detail, and coverage.
“Bold and straight thick lines are pretty integral to what I do,” says Bouma. “I’m not interested in thin lines or a messy job, and neither are the people who want me to tattoo them. I know what I can pull off, and 99% of those tattoos look best if they’re solidly lined, and produced in a solid shop or studio. No messy home jobs.”
