A personal selection (after an exhaustive trawl) of the best paintings and watercolours of Dublin in the 1940s and 1950s by blogger and Broadsheet.ie historian Sibling Of Daedalus who remarks:
“You have to say: we weren’t just good at the writing.”
These portraits of fictitious movie and TV families by Kirk Demarais occupy a curious nexus point between technically good and not quite right, affectionate and unnerving, FTW and WTF.
Whatever it is, we can’t stop looking at them.
Go to his site right now. You’ll see. Oh, you’ll see all right.

A stop-motion film (which gets more frenetic as it trips along) of Dutch artist Thijme Termatt creating works for his IPaint Project.
Apparently ambidextrous. Possibly having done a deal with the Red Lad.

Oil paintings, mind you.
Photorealistic painter Steve Mills has been known to sell entire shows in about ten minutes. Painting in oils and specialising in what he calls the “extraordinarily-ordinary”.
Mills takes your eye to a place where most would need a magnifying glass. Getting in so tight the viewer can see the stressed metal in a bottle cap or the texture of a newspaper.
More hi-res scans of Mills’ work here. The detail goes deep.

Artist Riusuke Fukahori uses “acrylic on clear resin which is poured into containers, resulting in a three-dimensional appearance and lifelike vitality”. He also likes goldfish.
