“Perhaps one reason we are fascinated by cats is because such a small animal can contain so much independence, dignity, and freedom of spirit. Unlike the dog, the cat’s personality is never bet on a human’s. He demands acceptance on his own terms.”

Beethoven likes to be creative. The pencils often fall out of his paws, but with his hind legs he manages quite well.
He can enjoy that so much. ;-))
Well Beety I enjoy you too.

Élisabeth Daynès est une artiste paléo dont les sculptures sont exposées dans les musées les plus prestigieux du monde : Field Museum, Chicago ; Musée Perot, Dallas ; Musée de la préhistoire Jeongok, Séoul ; Musée des Sciences CosmoCaixa, Barcelone ; Institut national d’anthropologie et d’histoire, Mexique ; Musée Narodni, Prague ; Musée de l’Homme, Paris… Depuis une décennie, elle ajoute à ses reconstructions scientifiques, un travail original traversé par une réflexion sur les enjeux de la figure humaine et du corps dans notre époque contemporaine.
Dès les débuts de sa carrière de plasticienne au théâtre, elle est fascinée par la question de la métamorphose physique et du jeu avec les apparences. Avec une première exposition consacrée à La Vérité des visages, elle entame une méditation sur l’identité et l’incarnation qu’elle poursuivra dans de nombreuses autres expositions comme Humans, Curieux face-à-face, Bouche B. Son exposition très appréciée Find Yourself présentée à Art up Lille en 2019 a donné lieu à plusieurs autres expositions à la Galerie du jour Agnès b. à Paris, la galerie 836M à San Francisco et la galerie Loo & Lou à Paris.

À l’origine, Libertas Gentis est une fresque de 20 mètres de haut réalisée Place d’Italie à Liège.
Pensée comme un hommage à la diversité et à l’identité multiple de notre ville, elle mêle hyperréalisme, symbolisme, et esthétique pop contemporaine.
Des éléments forts — comme le Perron ou le Toré — y côtoient des visages puissants, des animaux totems et des détails graphiques inspirés du tatouage.
NOIR artist est un duo artistique belge formé par deux frères : Lucien et Martin Gilson. Ensemble, ils développent une approche singulière de l’art contemporain, où se rencontrent esthétique percutante, introspection et ambition collective.
Leur travail explore la tension entre ombre et lumière, chaos et équilibre, dans une palette visuelle épurée dominée par le noir profond et l’or éclatant. Qu’il s’agisse de fresques monumentales, de toiles originales ou d’éditions limitées, chaque œuvre de NOIR artist est conçue comme une expérience émotionnelle, porteuse de sens et d’identité.
Basés à Liège, ils exposent aujourd’hui à l’international — de Paris à Dubaï, en passant par New York — tout en restant profondément ancrés dans leur territoire, qu’ils valorisent notamment par des projets muraux ambitieux.
Entre création brute et narration visuelle, NOIR artist invite à un regard neuf sur notre époque et sur nous-mêmes.
Originally, Libertas Gentis was a 20-meter-high mural in Place d’Italie in Liège.
Conceived as a tribute to the diversity and multifaceted identity of our city, it blends hyperrealism, symbolism, and contemporary pop aesthetics.
Strong elements—such as the Perron and the Toré—stand alongside powerful faces, totem animals, and graphic details inspired by tattoos.
NOIR artist is a Belgian artistic duo formed by two brothers: Lucien and Martin Gilson. Together, they develop a unique approach to contemporary art, where striking aesthetics, introspection, and collective ambition converge.
Their work explores the tension between shadow and light, chaos and balance, in a refined visual palette dominated by deep black and vibrant gold. Whether monumental murals, original canvases, or limited editions, each work by NOIR artist is conceived as an emotional experience, imbued with meaning and identity. Based in Liège, they now exhibit internationally—from Paris to Dubai, via New York—while remaining deeply rooted in their local area, which they showcase through ambitious mural projects.
Between raw creation and visual storytelling, NOIR artist invites us to take a fresh look at our times and at ourselves.
This began as a straight photo of a Eucalyptus tree but letting my imagination flow, it turned into what may be called hyperrealism.
Hyperrealism is the young art form of creating illusions by enhancing reality. Artists of this genre take their works beyond purely photographic quality by placing added focus on visual, social, and cultural details of everyday life. They play with colour intensity, lighting, contrast, and sharpness to shape a more vivid depiction of what we can see with the naked eye. This is what separates Hyperrealism from its more naturalistic predecessor, Photorealism.

I'm sure you don't really need to know that I organize my photo files by year, month and camera.
But since I'm starved for human company, I thought I'd tell you as if you were here with me.
Yesterday in Lightroom I clicked on the 2017 folder, and began working my way from 31 December toward the earlier parts of the year. It's something I haven't done before. Usually I look at a folder which has a particular camera's photos for a particular month. Lightroom chose to show me the images by capture date which meant as I worked my way toward earlier in the year, I might see something shot with the phone, or one of the Fujis, depending upon the date.
I came across this and realized that I haven't posted any bench photos for awhile. I thought my supply of them had been drained.
The native iPhone 7 camera app is almost too good. Its algorithms render edges too sharp to be believed. I had to copy the background layer in Ps a couple times. One I blurred about 1.7 pixels and masked all but the edges of the leaves. Against the sky the edges looked too sharp and unreal. The second copy I blurred 0.5 pixels over the entire image. I even had to desaturate and lighten the blue of the sky a little.
Now the image doesn't look so hyperreal.
Sorry about rambling on so.
Even introverts like me begin to feel the isolation after awhile.
Happy Bench Monday!

Musée Cinéma et Miniature in the heart of Vieux Lyon (Lyon’s old town). This museum unites miniaturist and founder Dan Ohlmann’s two passions: the magic of film special effects and the art of miniatures.
Les miniatures de Dan Ohlmann
Toutes les scènes hyperréalistes de Dan Ohlmann sont réunies dans son musée à Lyon, fruit de 20 années de passion créatrice.
Cet ancien ébéniste et architecte d’intérieur réalise ses miniatures animé d’une seule envie : inviter le spectateur à découvrir ou retrouver différentes ambiances et atmosphères de la vie quotidienne. Dan Ohlmann révèle la poésie qui s’empare de tout lieu lorsqu’il est fortement chargé d’histoire et de vécu.
Despite the peeling paint, these stairs from the Gothic Chalmers Church in Launceston still look good in the late afternoon sun. The high saturation levels in these two photographs today are intended to create a sense of hyperreality.

Klarity. It’s not just a mood—it’s a whole moment.
Slip into something unapologetically bold, irresistibly soft, and timelessly chic. I’m talking about the Klarity Mini Dress by WellMade, the wardrobe essential that speaks fluent sophistication with a whisper of retro glamour.

You can practically feel the bouclé-style digital fabric, flecked with depth and warmth—perfect for cozy nights in or strutting through town like you own the sidewalk runway.

See you there, wrapped in Klarity.
Two worlds, two separate universes collide
shifting, shattering, meshing together
blurring the lines of night and day
The harsh blazing sun crashes into
the calm white moon.
The clouds bend with the stars
the sharp colors layer with dull dark
As orange mingles with indigo
catching the breath of the few
to witness this spectacle
at the peak of its crescendo
The world is bathed clean, new again
the scars of forgotten wounds
began to disappear as the blue hour nears
For a moment I stand suspended in air
eyes widen, hands reach out
With the end of another day
is the hope of a new beginning
to wash the face of our lives
enabling us to try once again.

Even when visiting the prairie you can forget the colors of the prairie. There seems a bright yellow and dull brown, a dusty and muted pall draped over the landscape.
The grasses are green. The grasses are brown. And your eyes can only notice the reds and blues at glances, if at all.
Apart from dawn and dusk, the sky shifts endlessly from white to blue to white while clouds build across the parching afternoon.
In summer there are few flowers, but even those come missing more often than not.
The colors in this photo are at once surreal and hyperreal. They exist in that uncertain light between the lens and the film.
The colors on the prairie are few, but giving into it feels more colorful; allowing yourself over to the prairie, scrambling with life, overcome with place and being, there exists an endless color spectrum of light.
This is how the prairie can feel.
I will often say something like "I try to make my color photos express how a place felt rather than how it looked," and that is what is happening here - though I cannot imagine it so for everyone.
Most see these nearly-desert places as empty, featureless, and ultimately colorless: the beauty is show through black & white, if at all. But here, in this photo (and with any luck in most of the prairie photos), our notions and expectations are merely the foundations for possibilities. Even this is little more than a starting place.
This photo shows nothing that wasn't already there. It invents nothing. It imagines nothing. It rearranges no design. What it does (I hope) is simply show you what is possible.
