FACE ART













































Dutch artist, Levi van Veluw recently won the Photographer of the year award at the IPA, International Photo Awards in the USA. He has completely changed the style of landscape portraits by reinventing traditional methods- he literally uses his face as a canvas and becomes part of his surroundings in his art. This is a one man project, Veluw draws and photographs his work himself. These photo's are fantastic, Veluw uses materials from ball point pen to wood, gravel and grass. This series of landscapes was also adapted to video installation. Amazing work.

I have just added something 'similar' to my blog... maybe not quite so elegant! But face art nevertheless! Check it out: http://beccieblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/catman-lizardman.html
