Poppy still life. Interior art poster, made on natural cotton canvas. Mila Mironova Still Life Photo Art

Mila Mironova Still Life Photo Art
Based in Ryazan Russian photo artist Mila Mironova (mila-mir) creates unique and beautiful still lifes using interior printing on canvas. According to Mila, instead of paints and brushes that the artist uses, she uses light.
All works in her shop without exception are original. She does everything herself, from creating a still life composition and processing a raw photo, printing the finished work on canvas and selecting a baguette frame.

Undoubtedly, interior printing on canvas has become a very popular type of interior decor. Thanks to the choice of high-quality materials and the talent of the artist, her exclusive printed works are comparable to paintings.

Noteworthy, Mila, who is an engineer-designer by education, has never had anything to do with creativity, having taken her first steps in art after she retired. With her work, the artist inspires others “to dream, dare, learn, master something new at any age.”

Ekaterina Rozhdestvenskaya photo reproductions of paintings
Born on July 17, 1957 in Moscow in the family of the poet Robert Rozhdestvensky and literary critic Alla Kireeva, Ekaterina Rozhdestvenskaya has become famous for her photo reproductions of paintings.
In fact, she started to take pictures in 1998, inspired by the luxurious outfits of famous people at the TEFI award ceremony. According to Rozhdestvenskaya, these people reminded her of the works of famous artists.
Thanks to the support of her husband, they organized a photo studio, where they invited famous actors, singers and politicians for shots.
Already in March 2000, her creative works appeared in the magazine “Caravan of stories”. Titled “Private collection”, these photographs based on the paintings by famous artists, attracted much attention from readers. By the end of 2001, more than 200 people have already starred in the project. Among them – well-known Russian politicians, TV presenters, actors and journalists, singers, and sportsmen. With the use of makeup, costumes, decorations, they resemble the heroes of the paintings of the great artists of the past.
Of course, within the limits of one publication, it is simply impossible to show all her works of the project “Private collection”. Therefore, I will introduce you only to some of them, published in magazine “Caravan of stories” in 2013.

Photographer Elena Shumilova
The art by Russian self-taught photographer Elena Shumilova is a beautiful world filled with sun, divine light and gold color. Her photos are very vital, great, and a little nostalgic. They are about friendship and loneliness, love and the charm of nature.
An architect by education, Elena is a self-taught photographer. According to the photographer herself, after the birth of her second child, she began spending a lot of time away from Moscow, in a village in the Tver region. And then she had an irresistible desire to shoot and do it professionally. Her beautiful works are real paintings, with a unique coloring, game of light and color. She managed to convey emotional mood, and the most simple, but such important, moments of life.
Meanwhile, Elena spends half a year with her family in Moscow, and half a year in the Andreapol district of the Tver region on Lake Brosno, where she is engaged in farming. She has two sons – five-year-old Yaroslav and two-year-old Ivan. Therefore, the main “heroes” of most photos are Elena’s sons, as well as the “inhabitants” of her farm.

Moscow based artist Nikolai Svyatitsky works in the technique of photomosaic creating portraits of famous people, as well as ordinary people. Noteworthy, Nikolai doesn’t use Photoshop, and his art is not a computer-created type of montage. According to the artist, “it would be too simple and uninteresting”.
He builds a mosaic of elements as a puzzle, dividing them into tiled sections, using needed photo that matches the target photo.

The artist uses different kinds of photos – from neutral (Christmas-New Year, emoticons, road signs, cars, landscapes, animals) to personal photos. They are from different periods of life, including photos of family and friends, favorite pets, logos and icons of educational institutions, cities, emblems of sports associations, etc.
For a personal mosaic, a customer should give no less than 100 pictures, and personal information describing the character traits, interests of a man, and even his zodiac sign. The result is stunning.

The Blind Date. Photo art by Belgian photographer Ben Goossens. Do not Saw the Sawdust

Do not Saw the Sawdust

There is nothing more tragic in life than the utter impossibility of changing what you have done. Galsworthy.
Does it seem familiar to you: you’ve done something wrong and now can’t help regretting it? We can regret things that didn’t depend on us, but on circumstances. We can blame ourselves for not having said certain words to someone or for having said them. We all know that “one cannot turn back the clock”. Anyway we keep on regretting everything. Don’t you envy those who can find some spiritual power in their soul and duly submit, for it’s the only way to go on.
