“When I was young there were beatniks. Hippies. Punks. Gangsters. Now you’re a hacktivist. Which I would probably be if I was 20. Shuttin’ down MasterCard. But there’s no look to that lifestyle! Besides just wearing a bad outfit with bad posture. Has WikiLeaks caused a look? No! I’m mad about that. If your kid comes out of the bedroom and says he just shut down the government, it seems to me he should at least have an outfit for that.”

- John Waters on the sorry style of today’s rebels  (emphasis mine)

[wordsnquotes]

Illustrator Alex Noriega decided to express his emotions through a series of comforting and inspirational drawings. When he was feeling low, he sought refuge in art. Out of his struggles was conceived his beautiful blog called Stuff No One Told Me (SNOTM for short).

The blog features a collection of illustrations which resonate and puncture through our soul. Noriega reminds us about the bittersweet truths of life. His tender words remind us “that people who try to look tough harder, usually are the ones that need affection. As well as the other motivating facts about life and growing up. “No one’s really keeping track of how many times you screw up…so chill out.”

Paintings by Maksymilian Novak-Zemplinski

Maksymilina Novak-Zemplinski was born in 1974 in Warsaw, Poland. He graduated with Cum Laude honors from The European Academy of Art (Warsaw, Poland) in 1999.

(In my own work), the form is the most important element. When creating a painting, I mainly focus on this first layer. I see abstraction in the forms when observing most works of art, even when a painting is greatly representational. 

The “meaning” of my work is often not obvious and can be just as mysterious for me as for an observer. I believe the effect is much better when a painting is not calculated from A to Z. 

There has to be accidence in painting; the painting lives its own life and should surprise its creator. It’s these things that make a work of art enjoyable to create. There is no denying the possibility that I unintentionally create a kind of recorded meaning in my paintings, but I believe that most artists do so. In the end, I usually create under influence of great emotions, therefore, accidence occurs more frequently and is immediately perceivable. 

I feel somewhat like one who has lost their memory and tries to recall old memories from the past through painting. It’s an incredible feeling.
