Amazing Digital work

Feb. 4, 2010 No Comments Posted under: Crazy Tech, artistic

Here we have the work of Jaime Jasso, a Digital Artist who at an early age liked drawing and painting. He practiced and learnt paintings using watercolors, oils, and airbrushing, and later moved from comic books to illustrations. It was in mid 90’s that he found a great interest in matte painting and conceptual art and started to practice computer graphics. Presently he works as a Digital Matte artist and Scene Assembler at Blur Studio in Venice..

Jaime Jasso is a Digital Artist from Mexico and his work is just mind blowing.

Bringing the tropical rain-forest to the UK, Proctor and Matthews Architects has come up with a biodome called “Heart of Africa” that will replicate rain-forest habitats of the African Congo.

England’s weather is about as far from tropical as possible — except within the bubble of this amazing “Heart of Africa” biodome coming soon to Chester zoo. The 112-foot-high zoological attraction will simulate the rainforest habitats of the African Congo.

The biodome will cover 172,000 square feet and will be home to a number of animals, including a band of gorillas, a troop of chimpanzees, okapi ( giraffe-like creatures), birds, amphibians, reptiles, fish, and invertebrates. A water ride will show off animal enclosures, and a jungle canopy will flourish above visitors’ heads.

When it is opened in 2014, the biodome is expected to be Europe’s biggest conservation and animal attraction. We can only hope that the attraction inspires environmental action among visitors!

coffee cup mona lisa

The 20 foot high by 13 foot wide replica of the painting was created with 3,604 cups of coffee and 564 pints of milk. Artist assistants stand next to 3,604 cups of coffee which have been made into a giant Mona Lisa in Sydney , Australia. The 3,604 cups of coffee were each filled with different amounts of milk to create the different shades. Each cup of coffee was used as one pixel in the image and had varying amounts of milk in it to give it a different shade, from white to black and it took 8 people 3 hours to create it. This is an amazing portrayal of the Mona Lisa and amazing art made from non-traditional mediums.
