Street Artist Uses Dirt on Lorries to Create Amazing Drawings

[Yahoo! News}- A filthy vehicle can be incredibly unsightly but one street artist is turning them into incredible pieces of art.

Nikita Golubev regularly uses his talents to transform dirty vehicles in Moscow, Russia, sharing photographs of the huge artworks he creates on Instagram.

His popularity has surged on the site, and has now attracted more than 55,000 followers.

Mr Golubev often uses his unusual art to make social or political comments about serious issues such as war and pollution.

Other times, he uses his interest in science fiction and fantasy to create stunning images to liven up the city-scape.

Here are a selection of the artwork that can be seen on the roads of Moscow.

The stunning drawings are complex and detailed. (CEN)

Amazing Arts Which Were Surprisingly Made in MS Paint

His art is a far cry from the stick men most of us are capable of making on Paint

[Yahoo! News}- It’s known as being the go-to tool for clumsy doodles and childlike scribbles, but it turns out Microsoft Paint can actually be used to create incredible works of art.

The internet went into mourning on Monday as news spread that the programme was being discontinued.

But today Microsoft confirmed that it will continue to offer Paint through the Windows Store – though it won’t included on Windows 10 by default.

This will be music to the ears of US illustrator Pat Hines, who uses the programme for his artistic creations.

He has used the software to create beautiful illustrations for an e-book, as well as producing intricate portraits and incredibly detailed landscape drawings.

Pat says he uses the old-school programme because he ‘sucks’ at using Adobe Photoshop.

But that doesn’t mean his method is easy. He told the BBC: ‘I wouldn’t say it’s easy, it definitely takes quite a while. It could take upwards of 20 hours for just one piece.’

These are some of his astonishing creations.

Drawing Using Wacom Intuos Creative Pen Tablet

Apricot
Apricot, The Cat. My first drawing using the Wacom Intuos Creative Pen Tablet.

I drew the above picture using our Wacom Intuos Creative Pen Tablet.

It’s easy to draw with the tablet because it is similar to drawing using a pencil.

But the hard part is, the lines that I draw are not as straight and as smooth as and as the lines that I draw with a pencil because when I’m looking at the tablet, I can’t look at what I’m drawing,

But after the undos and redos, I finished my drawing, and I think that the result is very nice 😉

I really enjoy using the Wacom Intuos Creative Pen Tablet.
