I still don’t know how to title this post.<\/p>\n

I am not reinventing the wheel here but this is something I would like to do at the end of each month: make a visual list of things that caught my eye, made me smile or touched me. Like when your heart suddenly misses a beat. There is a perfect expression in French: coup de c\u0153ur, <\/em>but I have yet not found an equivalent that sounds as evocative.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I love bears (I dedicated a whole post<\/a> to them) so my heart stopped for a second when I saw this image from Nazarena Canvas<\/a> on Flickr. The contrast between the detailed foreground and the pitch black background is beautiful. I love the little touches of colour, the pen strokes and the way the bear leans like a big, soft and clumsy thing.<\/p>\n

This work from Zander Olsen<\/a> is very ingenious\u2026 and very puzzling when you look at it quickly. Is it a photo? Is it a painting? The fabric that mimics the horizon line plays tricks on your mind.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I love ALL photos from the site Hungry Ghost Food, but this series features mushrooms<\/a>!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This beautiful and enigmatic painting is from Carole Br\u00e9maud<\/a>. This image and the next were found through the inspiring site the Jealous Curator<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Another confusing work (in a good way) by Paul Chiappe<\/a>: this is not a photograph but a drawing. Apart from the amazing technique, there is strangeness and a slight feeling of discomfort. It might be the haziness added to the choice of the imagery but I have to look at it again and again, it is simply mesmerizing!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
