Liu Bolin: Camouflage Art

You may of seen some of Liu Bolin's pictures before, or maybe you just didn't realise. Born in 1973, Liu Bolin graduated from the Shandong Art college and Beijing's Central Academy of Fine Arts. He quickly became widely known for mastering the art of camouflaging himself against virtually any background. 


One single photo takes up to 10 hours to prepare – Liu uses himself as a blank canvas, and with a little help from an assistant, he paints his body to merge as seamlessly as possible with what is behind him. The results are incredible – sometimes passers-by don’t even realise he is around until he moves.

Some Amazing Examples of Street Art

Here is a selection of some street art. It's nice to see that more and more creative work is still continuing to spread on our cities roads, walls and even bins. Majority of artists still use paint as a medium but all kinds of objects and materials can also be seen. Found at Bored Panda.

Creative Logos With Hidden Symbolism

Here I have chosen six of some of my favorite logo designs with hidden symbols. I love how these simple shapes and letterforms come together in such simplicity. Taken from Bored Panda. 

French bread is also a letter "F".

Bird's head is also a magnifying glass.

The whole logo looks like a lying mummy.

There's a hidden "M" inside the logo.

An upside down open padlock forming the letter "U".

A part of the letter "M" flies away like a free bird symbolising freedom.
