Chris Anthony's Venice photography series is a stunning collection of theatrical performances on the seaside, set against a cold and bleak sea. The Los Angeles-based photographer creates the gloomy world of a mysterious civilization that exists in a gray space between fog and sea.
Venice is a metaphor for a drowning city leaving its residents face to face with the elements, who are forced to wander on the water, learning to live in new conditions. The heroes of Chris Anthony's photographs are like lost characters from a fairy tale, who have been transported to no one knows where, finding themselves in the midst of everything alien and unusual. They are depicted in a semi-conscious state.
Los Angeles-based photographer Chris Anthony creates surreal photographs. Using faded and soothing colors, photographs appear weightless, light and unearthly. A frosty and cold palette of grays and light blues creates the illusion of an arctic climate masterfully achieved on warm Venice Beach, California, where these photos were taken (Venice is an eastern Los Angeles suburb on the Pacific Ocean).
Chris Anthony is an internationally renowned photographer. His work is on display in galleries in Los Angeles, Stockholm, Washington, London and San Francisco. Materials about the work of the photo artist have appeared in such publications as the Los Angeles Times, Art News, American Photo, Paper, LA Weekly. Chris Anthony was born and raised in Stockholm, studied in Florence and now lives and works in Los Angeles.

How To Turn A Dull Wall Into A Work Of Art: 3D Street Art Kaifa Cosimo
The streets of almost all cities in the world are almost equally gray and boring. Anything that adds variety to the dull industrial landscape mainly refers to the signs and showcases of shops and cafes. But there is more. Sometimes, walking along the streets of the city, we see here and there, painted walls. The attitude to this is always unequivocal: “Vandals!”, We exclaim indignantly. But there are street artists who can turn an ordinary empty gray wall into a real work of art
Everyday life of a lonely man. Photos of bachelors from the Lonely Man series by Wes Naman
It's not scary when you are alone, scary when you are zero. No matter how inspiring, inspiring and encouraging this phrase may sound, being alone is actually very scary. Maybe it's not so much scary as sad and insulting, dreary, bitter and dejected. And if women, by their nature, try to stick together, then men, like proud lone wolves, move away from the team and withdraw into themselves. About this - a series of photographs from Wes Naman called "The Bachelor" (Lonely Man)
People, people and again people. Drawings by John Beinart
If you only have a couple of moments to get to know Jon Beinart, then, glancing over his paintings, you will see black and white portraits or several human figures.

Windoodles: Funny designs on window panes. So that the landscape outside the window does not seem so dull
And from our window the red square is visible! Sounds good, but not true … Since you can see only a little of the streets from our window … How many can boast of beautiful, picturesque city views from their windows? Alas, this is not the case. At best, the windows overlook the neighboring house or playground. And at worst, I don't want to talk. American artist and designer Garrett Miller has come up with a way to entertain those whose views from the window leave much to be desired. Naughty and funny
