Dan Freund manipulated images, Tina Blondell and Louie Metz paintings.
Dan Freund playing with images
I don’t agree with Dan Freunds quote of Andy Warhol that art is what you can get away with. Although it might be true for someone as famous as Andy.
Playing around with image manipulations might not be art but if you do it as skillful as Dan Freund it does lead to some very nice pictures
Tina Blondell’s strange ladies
A few months ago I featured an artist who painted tattoos. This next artist is somewhat reminiscent of him except for the fact that I don’t think that she is painting real people.
Tina Blondell paints naked woman with a pattern painted on their skin. The patterns give the paintings something odd but still interesting.
Louie Metz’s lovely ladies
After the last two artist you may be glad to see these paintings. Most are also of women but in this case painted the way women should be painted. Very nice.
(I also found a little mystery. If you have a Flickr account sign in before visiting this artist. When you do this set consists of 64 paintings. If your logged out it only contains 11 paintings.
I have no idea if this happens a lot or only with this artist.)

Funny illustrations by Mattias, abstract paintings by Leo Mayer and tattoo art by Shawn Barber.
Mattias Inks
Here’s a funny blog from a Swedish illustrator. Mattias creates drawings of creatures. All kind of creatures. Varying from robots to funny animals.
Here is one of his drawings commenting the recent European soccer championship.

Leo Mayer
Augarte by Leo Mayer
Looking at a painting like this, cold shivers run down my spine.
I don’t know what this is. Or what it is supposed to be. The title gives no information what so ever.
Further more I don’t even know whether I like it. But there is something fascinating about this painting.
Leo Mayer has many more paintings like this one.
Shawn Barber
And now for something different.
I must admit that after searching for artsites for about a year I’ve never seen anything like this site.
Shawn Barber is a tattoo artist who documents his own work and the work of his colleagues in what he calls Tattooed portraits. Which are exactly what they are. In some portraits you get to see (a part) of the person, but in most you only see the tattoo.
