Pictures of Bottle Caps

American artist began painting at the age of thirty years and is a self-taught. Almost ten years have seen a case, which defined the main direction of her work for years to come. Molly Bee Wright (Molly B. Right) was born in North Carolina, but in the age of six moved to Charleston in South Carolina. Live and work here so far. One day, Molly drew the attention of the rusting iron sheet. The artist decided to use it to create a picture, but as a halo for copies of the "Shroud of Turin," she decided to use the bottle caps. The idea is very pleased and the next year Molly has created several works consisting entirely of covers. On one such artist in mosaic leaves from three to seven thousand caps. The average size of works ranging from 2 to 4 square meters, and weight (with sheet iron-base) is not less than 50 kg. 26 more images after the break...

Wool street Art — Winter Time
While this type of art might prove a nuisance for people who actually want to use, ride and walk on the things being blanketed with yarn, it does bring an instant soft feeling to a harsher exterior. “Needlework anarchists” as these crocheting culprits are known to have been covering all kinds of monuments, statues, vehicles, trees and even buildings all over the world. 32 more images after the break...

Finger and Palm Print Paintings — Zhang Baohua
In 1989 Chinese artist Zhang Baohua invented a new style of painting which requires the artist to use his finger and palm prints to create unique works of art. It’s hard to believe such masterpieces can be created without any tools, but Zhang Baohuang manages to do it by using just his fingers and palm prints. His unique painting style is characterized by a concise, lively style and a sense of reality, and is considered a combination of traditional Chinese painting and the structural features of Western painting. Most of his works depict animals, especially dogs. Zhang’s works have been featured in art galleries all around the world, and he is known as “China’s world famous palm painting artist”.09 more images after the break...

World Map of Computer Chips

Entitled World, the piece has been in progress since 2010 and uses motherboards, electrical wiring, fans, and myriad other components donated by Secure IT Recycling. Although Stockwell has worked with electronic components for additional projects, her work with paper is also extraordinary and has been making the rounds quite a bit.

Animations on the Leaf
It is an art of manual removing the surface of a leaf. In this process the artists remove without cutting of veins. It is a very complicated and difficult work to produce some animations on the leaf. This art derived from china. The artists of china make different, nice and delightful pictures by using this wonderful art. Mostly they use leaf of a Chinar tree because that leaf is bigger in size then others and also have a good shape. 18 more images after the break...

Portraits of Lips
Skill: Instead of a paintbrush, Ms Irish employs her rouged lips to create a portrait of Marilyn Monroe
Jackson Pollock painted with drips, while this young artist paints with her lips.
Natalie Irish of Houston, Texas paints by putting on lipstick, then pressing her lips against a blank canvas.
By varying the pressure of her kisses, as if titillating a lover, she can create large, nuanced images.
In a recent video she uploaded to YouTube (made by Chris O'Malley), Ms Irish creates a gorgeous portrait of icon Marilyn Monroe, solely with the use of her puckered lips.
Ms Irish told MailOnline.com that she had learned how to paint pictures with thumbprints back in high school.
She said: 'I always got a good response from them, but because it had been done before by other artists, I never felt like it was "my own". 05 more images and video after the break...
