As a rock climber, painter, photographer, filmmaker, and The North Face athlete, Renan Ozturk is a true renaissance man. His surrealistic landscape paintings - rendered on location in mountain ranges - are influenced by his adventures both local and abroad to destinations like Nepal. He uses pastels, watercolors, acrylics, and ink on canvas rags to create colorful, ethereal, and bizarre takes on the mountain ranges he traverses. Painting these impressionistic images right on the ground, each piece of art takes a bit of the earth with it. Watch his latest video here to see him in action:

    Parra is one of my favorite artists, but I've never gotten the chance to see his work in person (other than Kidrobot's Pierced, that is).

    I don't think I need to explain why Coarse Toys have garnered a cult following. And the German duo's illustrations are just as alluring as their toys.

    Swoon! Ever since the event was first teased, I've been wondering if Konatsu would be bringing any of her super cute watercolor illustrations to myplasticheart for her solo exhibition. Well, the above imagine indicates a firm "yes"!
