Artist Shintaro Ohata Seamlessly Blends Sculpture and Canvas to Create 3D Paintings
When first viewing the artwork of Shintaro Ohata up close it appears the scenes are made from simple oil paints, but take a step back and you’re in for a surprise. Each piece is actually a hybrid of painted canvas and sculpture that blend almost flawlessly in color and texture to create a single image. The cinematic figures are sculpted from polystyrene while the backgrounds are made from traditional painting techniques.
Something about bedrooms with little hidden away nooks or split levels just really gets me

#Homer Simpson don’t give a fuck about homosexuality.
there’s something bothering me about this place…the girl in green becomes black in the last gif. ಠ_ಠ
And the girl at the bar suddenly has a tattoo.
Lesbians are not bound to the same laws as you mere mortals
i didn’t know it was possible to trust someone this much
Beyond the lies, beneath the deception, the truth will surface.
Magnolia Pictures has debuted the trailer for the chilling Sundance documentary Blackfish, directed Gabriela Cowperthwaite, about orcas in captivity.
Holy shit.
OKAY, WE NEED TO REBLOG THE FUCK OUT OF THIS. EVEN IF YOU’RE NOT AN ANIMAL PERSON, YOUR FOLLOWERS NEED TO SEE THIS. ESPECIALLY DURING THE HEIGHT OF VACATION SEASON. DO NOT SUPPORT SEA PARKS WITH CAPTIVE WHALES. IT’S NOT ENVIRONMENTAL PROPAGANDA (I can’t believe I even used those words) IT’S A REAL ISSUE AND IT’S NOT A MATTER OF PROOF, IT’S A MATTER OF COVERING IT UP AND IGNORING IT!
I can get having fish or crustaceans but seriously, who actually thought having a whale would be a good idea
Even fish are rarely taken care of (in home aquariums.)
If a tiny little betta needs a MINIMUM of five gallons with a heater and a single goldfish needs at least 100gal…lets compare that to the tanks whales are kept in.
Whales that migrate and hunt in vast territories, whales that have complex social structures, whales that don’t live on fish alone (but seals and other deal dwelling animals.)
Could that lead to nutritional deficiencies? Just like in domesticated animals now (dogs and cats are not meant to live on processed dry carbs - they need protein.)
Well run aquariums I can deal with (the local aquarium actually keeps octopus but know that because these are highly intelligent animals that shouldn’t be cooped up they only keep them for 6months and then release them back to the ocean - basically, in six months the octopus is getting free food, they love it.
I just….ugh Sea World.
I don’t think people give Flash enough credit.
…………….my goodness
Speaking of different body shapes. These are all basically peak human bodies.
How come 99% of them don’t conform to what the entertainment industry tells us is the perfect body?
This is a FABULOUS set of body refs. So glad this came back across my dash so I could reblog it here :D
These images are from a book by Howard Schatz of various Olympic athletes, which was titled “Athlete.” You can buy the book [here]. Also, have some more photos from it:
Never not reblogging this.
Awesome!
After succumbing to a fever of some sort in 1705, Irish woman Margorie McCall was hastily buried to prevent the spread of whatever had done her in. Margorie was buried with a valuable ring, which her husband had been unable to remove due to swelling. This made her an even better target for body snatchers, who could cash in on both the corpse and the ring.
The evening after Margorie was buried, before the soil had even settled, the grave-robbers showed up and started digging. Unable to pry the ring off the finger, they decided to cut the finger off. As soon as blood was drawn, Margorie awoke from her coma, sat straight up and screamed.
The fate of the grave-robbers remains unknown. One story says the men dropped dead on the spot, while another claims they fled and never returned to their chosen profession.
Margorie climbed out of the hole and made her way back to her home.
Her husband John, a doctor, was at home with the children when he heard a knock at the door. He told the children, “If your mother were still alive, I’d swear that was her knock.”
When he opened the door to find his wife standing there, dressed in her burial clothes, blood dripping from her finger but very much alive, he dropped dead to the floor. He was buried in the plot Margorie had vacated.
Margorie went on to re-marry and have several children. When she did finally die, she was returned to Shankill Cemetery in Lurgan, Ireland, where her gravestone still stands. It bears the inscription “Lived Once, Buried Twice.”
