Tania Lissova, a paper artist from Russia, found a unique and beautiful way to express her creativity. She makes tiny paper plants and flower bouquets using small pieces of paper that she carefully cuts and shapes, then glues together into wonderful little paper sculptures. Lissova’s art brought her almost 400,000 Instagram followers and you can follow her, too, if you’d like to see more of her work.

Lissova was an architecture and art student when she explored other artists’ work trying to find inspiration for her own work. She finally found paper art to be something she enjoys the most and she turned it from a hobby into a full-time job over time.

During a Q&A session on her Instagram page, a follower asked Lissova about the secret of her continuous creativity. She replied: “There’s no secret. I just love what I do. It motivates me to keep creating.”

Would you try to make something like this? We’re sure it’s much more difficult than it looks. Scroll down to see our selection of her works. Find more on her Instagram page!

Spenser Little is a Californian artist who’s been making art from wire for the past 15 years. His works have been used on lamp posts and other street constructions around the world and it has been showcased in numerous exhibitions. 

Little creates most of his works from a single piece of wire, which only makes it more impressive. He bends the wire with a pair of pliers and that’s really all he does in terms of technique, though the results look much more complex.

He argues that “there’s no accounting on taste,” as he writes in his Instagram description. But we’re sure that, no matter your artistic taste, you can appreciate the talent and skill that’s behind the work of this amazing artist. The fact that he does it with unconventional material and comes up with his own, unique style only makes our point stronger. Scroll down to see his sculptures.

The video you can watch below shows the process of the restoration of a 1907 painting from the Museum of Modern Art. It features conservator Diana Hartman who’s an expert at solving problems, acquiring the needed tools, and doing the required work. She’s currently working on the conservation of a hundred-year-old painting by Paula Modersohn-Becker. The work is specific because it’s still on the original wood stretchers that the artist put the painting on, which means there are some logistical inconveniences that don’t usually appear.

In order to repair the painting, Hartman uses a microscope, eye surgery needles, and custom-shaped canvas patch that matches the original watercolors.

Her work is incredibly precise and truly impressive! Check out the video below to see how Hartman does it and to hear more about the restoration of this particular painting; the story gets pretty interesting!

Gab Bois lives in Montreal, Canada, where she works on her surreal photography projects that show some bizarre, although clever, concepts. Her images often feature some interesting but impossible ideas, such as making a coffee cup out of sugar cubes and actually pouring coffee in it.

Bois isn’t too concerned about fine-tuning her photos to achieve certain visual effects. For him, photography is just a tool for translating the ideas she wants to share with the world. She got a degree in fine art but she only started practicing photography after she graduated. She mostly finds inspiration in ordinary, mundane things that make up everyday life but always adds a twist that makes her work recognizable.

You can find her photos on Instagram and see them in exhibitions around the globe. She’s currently preparing a solo exhibition for 2020, but her work will also be featured in group exhibitions in London and Montreal this October.

Willy Verginer is an Italian sculptor and author of figurative wooden sculptures that are painted in a way that’s suggestive about the environmental decay of our planet. He paints parts of his sculptures in bright blue, orange, green, or gray as a way to emphasize what’s going on with his subjects.

Though his work often talks about environmental issues, that’s not the only topic he works with. Many of his sculptures are purely fantastical and their meaning is open to interpretation. Without context, it’s easy to understand them in many different ways.

Verginer’s work is often exhibited in galleries around the world, from the U.S. to Israel. You can check out his Instagram to see more of his art and you can follow him for regular updates on his work.

A recent documentary that you can watch on PBS shows a sleeping octopus that’s probably having a vivid dream and Dr. David Scheel explained what the dream could be about.

Dr. Scheel is a marine biologist who was involved in creating this documentary. In his opinion, the octopus is probably dreaming about hunting, which he assumed because of the color-changing that’s going on.

“So here she’s asleep, she sees a crab and her color starts to change a little bit,” Laughing Squid quoted Dr. Scheel. “Then she turns all dark. Octopuses will do that when they leave the bottom. This really is fascinating.”

Dr. Scheel spent years studying the octopus that’s the subject of this documentary and that’s how he’s able to talk about what the animal may dream about. Click play below to see the video.

Prudence Geerts is a Belgian artist behind the adorable webcomic Planet Prudence that’s devoted to showing you that you’re not alone in your thoughts, no matter how odd they may seem at times. The star of the comics is the illustrated version of Geerts that finds herself in numerous funny situations that we’re all familiar with.

“I started drawing ever since I was a little kid,” Geerts writes on her website. “My older brother went to art school and I was determined to do the same thing he did in high school when I was older. And so I did.”

She explains that her comic started as a personal outlet because she always thought her thoughts weren’t significant enough to share with the others. Today, she has over 650,000 followers on Instagram who prove to her day after day that her experiences are totally normal and universal. Scroll down to see some of her best work.

Teppei Takeda is a Japanese artist behind powerful brushstroke portraits that show people with no faces, but with very strong characters. Even though he basically paints silhouettes, the colors that he uses and the fierce strokes left a strong impression on us.

Takeda spent ten years away from the public in his studio located in Yamagata. He only decided to show the world his paintings when he thought he was ready, and that happened in 2016. His first exhibition was at a local gallery called Kuguru, and its gallerist Maho Kubota still remembers it. “There was no special advertising or publicity, but the ten portraits that he exhibited had such an impact on viewers that the news soon spread, reaching people who would travel to Yamagata from far away to see his works and collectors hoping to buy,” he told This is Colossal.

Check out Takeda’s portraits below and visit his Instagram for more.

Teppei Takeda is a Japanese artist behind powerful brushstroke portraits that show people with no faces, but with very strong characters. Even though he basically paints silhouettes, the colors that he uses and the fierce strokes left a strong impression on us.

Takeda spent ten years away from the public in his studio located in Yamagata. He only decided to show the world his paintings when he thought he was ready, and that happened in 2016. His first exhibition was at a local gallery called Kuguru, and its gallerist Maho Kubota still remembers it. “There was no special advertising or publicity, but the ten portraits that he exhibited had such an impact on viewers that the news soon spread, reaching people who would travel to Yamagata from far away to see his works and collectors hoping to buy,” he told This is Colossal.
