Re: Cool Picture Thread
It’s NOT a parrot!
This parrot is in fact a female model who posed for Johannes Stötter, a fine art body painter.
Using breathable paint, he spent hours painstakingly turning this woman into the image of a parrot, brushstroke by brushstroke. The model’s arm forms the parrot’s head and beak, and her legs form the wing and tail feathers.

Re: Cool Picture Thread
Yeah, but what Ian posted isn't even an image of a parrot... it's an image of a person made to look like an image of a parrot! That's kinda abstract...Mikey wrote:And this is not a pipe.IanKennedy wrote:It’s NOT a parrot!

Re: Cool Picture Thread
More abstract than Magritte? IDK, He said it wasn't a parrot, and upon more detailed inspection it becomes clear that it isn't, in fact, a parrot. Seems fairly concrete to me. Magritte's message also becomes clear, but only if we as a viewer agree to shift the paradigm of our observation from subject to gestalt of sensation... sort of like suspension of disbelief when watching sci-fi.

Oh thank god. 28 hours later I finally see it. All I needed to do was find the tit, and let nature take its course.IanKennedy wrote:

Edit: Now I can't see the parrot anymore...
Also I want to point out something unnecessary that on the initial "This isn't a parrot," I thought to myself, "Yeah. It's a macaw."

Re: Cool Picture Thread
I can switch between 'model' and 'bird'. Sometimes it does so subconsciously.

To quote a certain captain...

And even if you take away the wind and the water, it's still the same. The ship is yours, you can feel her...and the stars are still there.
