[nidokidos] Married For 63 Years

Grandparents Have The Sweetest Photoshoot To Celebrate 63 Years Of Being In Love

Nothing stands the test of time like love, and Wanda and Joe are living proof of that. They got married in 1952 and they're still as in love with each other as they were when they first met.
For their 63rd wedding anniversary, their granddaughter, Texas-based photographer Shalyn Nelson, decided to give them their very own photo shoot, and as you can see, the resulting pictures are as inspiring as they are heartwarming. The adorable couple met when Joe saw Wanda walking along the street in 1950. He pulled over, asked her out on a date, and the rest as they say is history. The pictures are part of an ongoing project called Love, The Nelsons, which Shalyn started to celebrate old love, and they serve to remind us that although our time is limited, there's nothing more timeless than love.

As part of the photoshoot, Shalyn asked her grandparents to write love letters to each other

"Dearest Wanda,' wrote Joe. "It's been a long time since I have written you a letter"

"The years have gone by fast. One morning you just wake up and you are OLD. Anyway, I wouldn't trade them for all the gold in Alaska"

"We had 3 great kids and lots of fun raising them. Most of the time. I wish that we could bring back some of those days"

"Anyway, I will close this letter to you saying I love you as much today as the day I married you"

"And just think, the license only cost $2.00. The best bargain I ever made"

Even Google Says Live In Peace Love.

[nidokidos] Nail Sculptures

Sculptures That I Created With Hundreds Of Thousands Of Nails
by Marcus Levine

I am a sculptor of the human physique and I use nails to create my sculptures. These artworks take me weeks, sometimes even months to finish and I use thousands of nails.
I translate my ideas onto large white wooden panels by hammering the nails at varying heights and distances to create the tone and texture. The majority of my 'nail sculptures' are representations of the human form. My figurative interest is in the lines we create. It was only natural I would move towards seeking out dancers whose ability to strike beautiful poses was exactly what I was trying to capture.
My original idea was to utilise the nails to create other, more abstract sculptures, but it struck me that the interplay between the rigid, angular nails and the soft curves of the human torso, would be more striking. It took me a few years of working figuratively before I could finally afford the time to embrace other more contemporary ideas and I made a very clear move to encompass my love of non-representational ideas, my latest work is in stark contrast to my figurative sculptures.
My large monumental work embraces the sense of touch and the abstract and I try to use the nails sensitively along with other materials such as Oak, COR-TEN, stainless steel, and stone. Light also plays an integral role in my work and I have to work with the idea that the very essence of the sculpture changes depending on how it is lit.
I have also created few portraits of famous people and I was very lucky to meet them in real life.

This is me and Jean Claude Van Damme. He was down to earth and good fun to be with, he was very respectful of my Father and was truly impressed with the sculpture.

This is a Sycamore tree trunk commissioned by Bradford's Civic Art Gallery as part of my exhibition, that was displayed at Cartwright Hall for six months.

Oak Sensory Sculpture

This sculpture is currently on display outside the University of Bradford. It was carved out of 4 meters of Oak tree trunk with stainless steel nails running along its length.

COR-TEN

I had the nails made specially for me to create this Cor-ten sculpture. The iron is used in ship building and more recently in the creation of Antony Gormley's Angel of the North.

[nidokidos] 3D Drawings

3D Drawings That I Create To Confuse People
1 week ago by Bored Panda » Nikola Čuljić

I am a self-taught, 30 year old guy from Serbia. Actively engaged in drawing less than 3 years. They said that I always had a talent for drawing, but I didn't have interest for this.
I started drawing portraits and it was hard, there were great artists which in this holy will never achieve (maybe one day), so I decided to draw something different, something rear. 3D is something what people like and I want to be the best at this. I am using colored pencils, markers and pastel. Inspiration is everywhere, just need to catch it.
