Earlier this year the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles asked their followers to recreate popular paintings with everyday objects, and the challenge took the world by storm. People from all over the world tried to find the most unique approach to recreate iconic paintings and Liza Yukhnyova was one of them.

Yukhnyova is very passionate about art and has a degree in art history, so she became extremely dedicated to this project. Her initial plan was to participate in the challenge for 30 days. However, she ended up having so much fun that she extended the project for an entire year.

Нам с вами предстоит много открытий ✨ Одеянием мне служит платье схожей расцветки, весь жемчуг, что есть дома, на меня надет. Серьги и бант постаралась подобрать схожие. А вот головной убор снова сделан мудрено: золотая тюбитейка, обернута кремовым, но немного прозрачным платком, поверх прикреплена свадебная корона сестры.

“One of my goals is enlightening people when they compare my photos with paintings. I want to highlight great paintings from different cultural traditions and show people that they are much closer to them than it seems. My replicas encourage everyone to look at the paintings in detail, I think it’s important,” she to My Modern Met.

So far Liza has recreated more than 150 paintings from different areas and genres and it seem like she’s getting better at it every day. It’s important to mention that all of her creations are made entirely with simple household items, and without the use of Photoshop, so Yukhnyova has to be very creative to stay on top of her game.

День 149 Джон Багнольд Бургесс (John Bagnold Burgess) Девушка с веером (Lady with fan) 1872 Серия 9. Испанские красавицы 💃 На мне сегодня снова простыня моя любимая 😁 Ну и много всего другого, конечно 😉 Сначала надет зелёный пиджак и к нему приколоты кружавчики, поверх накинута простынь, потом чёрный шарф на плечи. К причёске прикреплена мантилья из маминой шали (на переднем плане она на фоне простыни). Розы у шеи и в причёске – самые настоящие, но более тёмные, нежели в оригинале. Серьгу выбрала наиболее похожую из имеющихся. Веер изначально белый и прозрачный, так что пришлось подлепить с внутренней стороны коричневой бумаги от цветов. Фон – гладильная доска под светлым пледом и мои домашние растения, зачастую помогающие мне в моих творческих делах.

Most people would probably say that typewriters are a thing of the past but for James Cook, they are the main tool for creating unique and intricate pieces of art.

This UK-based artist is creating beautiful black and white portraits and landscapes by arranging punctuation marks, numbers, and letters and typing them on a piece of paper.

“There is something fascinating about using the 43 keys of a typewriter and using the various shapes of the punctuation, letters, and numbers to arrange and configure onto a piece of paper to create a desired shape or type of shading,” the artist told My Modern Met.

Cook explained that his work is inspired by an American typewriter artist, Paul Smith, who suffered from cerebral palsy but was still able to create beautiful art using typewriters.

Over the years, Cook created almost 100 pieces of art using 30 different typewriters from his collection—some of them made in the 1950s. However, one of his greatest accomplishments happened recently when he finished working on the largest typewriter drawing ever created. It was a commissioned piece, made up of more than 100,000 symbols and is around 4 feet x 3 feet big.

Check out Cook’s artwork in the photos below.

Turns out that social distancing is not only hard for us, people, but it’s difficult for our loyal companions and best friends—dogs. At least Wallace, an adorable 1-year-old corgi, feels this way.

Wallace is a funny little pooch who has an unusual habit—he loves to greet all his friends with a hug. Every time he goes for a walk and meets some of his dog friends, Wallace can’t help but greet them with a hug. His owner says that the corgi is very respectful and always makes sure that it’s okay to hug another dog.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CDC8Tjsph4B/

“He is very playful and beyond sweet, he loves to cuddle and give hugs and kisses. He ONLY hugs his friends and family. He does not hug random dogs. I want to stress that he is not showing dominance when he does this. It’s really love”, Wallace’s owner told Bored Panda.

Unlike other dogs who may bark at other animals, Wallace is extremely affectionate not only with his dog friends and family members but with everyone. His owners say that they’re very lucky to have this short-legged guy in their lives.

Check out Wallace’s funny photos below.

Drew Evans is the owner of a bicycle repair shop in Iowa, but he’s also a talented artist who’s using old bike parts to make breathtaking art pieces. Evans has a knack for turning discarded things, such as chains or sprockets, and turning them into beautiful metal sculptures.

The talented man said in an interview with My Modern Met that he enjoys breathing life into something that most people consider junk. “I love working with scrap bicycle chains and sprockets in particular for a plethora of reasons, including the fact that they are highly conducive to geometric designs, and they come in a variety of metallic finishes that often take on colorful patinas when heated,” he said.

Evans is a big fan of cycling, nature, and sustainable living, and he found a perfect way to combine all of these interests into an amazing hobby. The artist’s love for nature can be easily noticed in his sculptures, as most of them are inspired by trees, animals, and other motifs from nature.

Did you spend hours playing Mario Kart when you were a child? Or maybe you still enjoy playing this popular game, even as an adult? If the answer is yes, then you’re also going to enjoy seeing Linda Bouderbala’s newest illustrations.

This creative artist, who is very fond of geek and pop culture, imagined what would happen if Mario Kart characters raced our favorite heroes from other universes. The result is a series of colorful illustrations that are worth taking a look.

“I’ve been a real fan of Mario Kart since I was a child and used to play it on SNES,” the artist told Bored Panda. “I would love to experiment with a Mario Kart race in real life. But it may prove to be too dangerous! It makes me wonder how funny could it be to see all those MK characters, with their items, in a race against other famous drivers.”

The artist added that this was a perfect opportunity to experiment with a trichromatic effect. This means she used three shades of colors — one for the foreground, one for the background, and the third one for the characters’ items.

You can take a look at her illustrations in the photos below.

If you want your daily dose of cute sheep popping up on your Instagram and Facebook feed, you should definitely make sure to follow Thanks Nature Cafe. This lovely place, based in Seoul, South Korea, is not your regular cafe. It’s the coolest cafe on Earth, where visitors can come to have a cup of coffee, all while petting adorable and fluffy sheep.

Thanks Nature Cafe opened in 2011, and it very soon attracted the attention of dozens of animal lovers who came to meet the adorable hosts. The cafe also went viral on social media after they shared a photo of a cute lamb getting a bath and being transformed into a fluffy snowball.

“I don’t know how this place was known to the world, but I had visitors from all over the world coming to see my sheep, from Macedonia, Saudi Arabia, New Zealand, even some countries I don’t know well,” the owner Lee Kwang-ho told a news outlet back in 2015.

If you’re planning to travel to Seoul, South Korea anytime soon, make sure you check out one of the coolest cafes in the world.

Coco and Cici are two adorable Maltese sisters living in Scottsdale, Arizona, whose job is to put smiles on people’s faces and to make them happy. They’re both registered therapy dogs, spreading joy on a weekly basis at Phoenix Children’s Hospital. 

Coco, however, has mastered a clever trick to attracts everyone’s attention by constantly putting her paws in the air. She’s doing this everywhere and all the time, and it’s pretty hilarious!

Coco’s owner Katee Lauchner, says that her pet was super easy to train and she needed only a few weeks to learn some basic commands. Her daughter taught Coco the ‘Paws Up’ trick, and now they simply can’t stop her from raising her paws in the air.

“My daughter taught her using the back of the couch for support and taking a treat above her head to get her to move upward. Over the years, Coco has turned it into her own thing by standing up and putting her paws up, and now she does it all the time even without us asking,” Katee told Bored Panda.

Take a look at these adorable Maltese sisters in the photos below.

Polly Verity is a paper artist who is using the incredible versatility of this material to create unique and inspiring artworks. Verity is able to create expressive facial sculptures only by twisting and bending blanks sheets of watercolor paper.

The artist has been creating amazing paper sculptures for the last 15 years, but only recently she decided to move from clean geometrical shapes to something more complex. Years of curved folding paper have paid off and Verity is now able to create sculptures of kissing figures or faces smoking a cigarette.

“I tried to fold along the profile of a face, and I realized that I could tweak the paper on either side just very slightly and ease curves out to give volume and form,” the artist explained in an interview with Colossal.

“When I tried the same technique in watercolor paper, I suddenly had micro-control over the resulting curved forms and they became soft and sensual.”

Take a look at Verity’s unique paper creations in the photos below and make sure to keep up with her work on Instagram.

Animals are an endless source of inspiration for all of us who love searching for funny videos on the Internet.

Twitter user @greeneggs_ shared a video of his sister’s dog trying to play with kittens. This lovely giant dog called Ruadh, was holding a string in his mouth and pulling it around hoping that these kittens would like to play with him for a while. He probably saw his owners playing with the kittens this way before, so he tried to follow their lead and grab their attention the same way. It appears that it didn’t work though.

The Twitter user also shared the story of how Ruadh found these kittens abandoned on side of the road when they were only two weeks old. Ruadh’s owners took the kittens in and they’re trying to find them a new home.

Take a look at this funny video.

Most people would probably say that typewriters are a thing of the past but for James Cook, they are the main tool for creating unique and intricate pieces of art.

This UK-based artist is creating beautiful black and white portraits and landscapes by arranging punctuation marks, numbers, and letters and typing them on a piece of paper.

“There is something fascinating about using the 43 keys of a typewriter and using the various shapes of the punctuation, letters, and numbers to arrange and configure onto a piece of paper to create a desired shape or type of shading,” the artist told My Modern Met.

Cook explained that his work is inspired by an American typewriter artist, Paul Smith, who suffered from cerebral palsy but was still able to create beautiful art using typewriters.

Turns out that social distancing is not only hard for us, people, but it’s difficult for our loyal companions and best friends—dogs. At least Wallace, an adorable 1-year-old corgi, feels this way.

Drew Evans is the owner of a bicycle repair shop in Iowa, but he’s also a talented artist who’s using old bike parts to make breathtaking art pieces. Evans has a knack for turning discarded things, such as chains or sprockets, and turning them into beautiful metal sculptures.

The talented man said in an interview with My Modern Met that he enjoys breathing life into something that most people consider junk. “I love working with scrap bicycle chains and sprockets in particular for a plethora of reasons, including the fact that they are highly conducive to geometric designs, and they come in a variety of metallic finishes that often take on colorful patinas when heated,” he said.

Evans is a big fan of cycling, nature, and sustainable living, and he found a perfect way to combine all of these interests into an amazing hobby. The artist’s love for nature can be easily noticed in his sculptures, as most of them are inspired by trees, animals, and other motifs from nature.

Did you spend hours playing Mario Kart when you were a child? Or maybe you still enjoy playing this popular game, even as an adult? If the answer is yes, then you’re also going to enjoy seeing Linda Bouderbala’s newest illustrations.

This creative artist, who is very fond of geek and pop culture, imagined what would happen if Mario Kart characters raced our favorite heroes from other universes. The result is a series of colorful illustrations that are worth taking a look.

“I’ve been a real fan of Mario Kart since I was a child and used to play it on SNES,” the artist told Bored Panda. “I would love to experiment with a Mario Kart race in real life. But it may prove to be too dangerous! It makes me wonder how funny could it be to see all those MK characters, with their items, in a race against other famous drivers.”

The artist added that this was a perfect opportunity to experiment with a trichromatic effect. This means she used three shades of colors — one for the foreground, one for the background, and the third one for the characters’ items.

You can take a look at her illustrations in the photos below.

Coco and Cici are two adorable Maltese sisters living in Scottsdale, Arizona, whose job is to put smiles on people’s faces and to make them happy. They’re both registered therapy dogs, spreading joy on a weekly basis at Phoenix Children’s Hospital. 

Coco, however, has mastered a clever trick to attracts everyone’s attention by constantly putting her paws in the air. She’s doing this everywhere and all the time, and it’s pretty hilarious!

Coco’s owner Katee Lauchner, says that her pet was super easy to train and she needed only a few weeks to learn some basic commands. Her daughter taught Coco the ‘Paws Up’ trick, and now they simply can’t stop her from raising her paws in the air.

“My daughter taught her using the back of the couch for support and taking a treat above her head to get her to move upward. Over the years, Coco has turned it into her own thing by standing up and putting her paws up, and now she does it all the time even without us asking,” Katee told Bored Panda.

Take a look at these adorable Maltese sisters in the photos below.

Polly Verity is a paper artist who is using the incredible versatility of this material to create unique and inspiring artworks. Verity is able to create expressive facial sculptures only by twisting and bending blanks sheets of watercolor paper.

The artist has been creating amazing paper sculptures for the last 15 years, but only recently she decided to move from clean geometrical shapes to something more complex. Years of curved folding paper have paid off and Verity is now able to create sculptures of kissing figures or faces smoking a cigarette.

“I tried to fold along the profile of a face, and I realized that I could tweak the paper on either side just very slightly and ease curves out to give volume and form,” the artist explained in an interview with Colossal.

“When I tried the same technique in watercolor paper, I suddenly had micro-control over the resulting curved forms and they became soft and sensual.”

Take a look at Verity’s unique paper creations in the photos below and make sure to keep up with her work on Instagram.

Animals are an endless source of inspiration for all of us who love searching for funny videos on the Internet.

Twitter user @greeneggs_ shared a video of his sister’s dog trying to play with kittens. This lovely giant dog called Ruadh, was holding a string in his mouth and pulling it around hoping that these kittens would like to play with him for a while. He probably saw his owners playing with the kittens this way before, so he tried to follow their lead and grab their attention the same way. It appears that it didn’t work though.

The Twitter user also shared the story of how Ruadh found these kittens abandoned on side of the road when they were only two weeks old. Ruadh’s owners took the kittens in and they’re trying to find them a new home.

Take a look at this funny video.
