The Beautiful Illustrations Of Chris Schloe

(Via)

Christian Schloe is an incredibly talented Chilean illustrator who captivated us with his incredible, surreal visions of themes including love, loss and introspection. Over the course of his career, Schloe has shared very little personal information about himself, instead opting to duck behind a quote from The Last Unicorn writer Peter S. Beagle, 'anything can happen in a world that holds such beauty.'

This simple quote paints a picture of the artists potentially cup half full approach to life and art, although his heavily surreal pieces at times mix the beauty of life with themes of strong personal despair and longing. Schloe's aesthetic are also frozen in time, beckoning to a romantic, Victorian era of painting. Schloe just appeared earlier this year on Facebook, and sells prints of his work via his Redbubble and Society6 pages. Check out more of his beautiful illustrations after the break.

LATIN AMERICAN EDDIE VEDDER

Talent shows have spread all over the world, every nation has a version of what we know as *insert country* Got's Talent.  There have been really good artists coming out of them; Some even jump-started proper careers in show business. Others became novelty acts and changed their everyday lives for a moment. And others were just toying around for little more than their faces on T.V.

In South America, Chile to be precise, there is one of those T.V. shows. But rather than looking for new stars, they are looking for the best double/impersonator/imitator of any artist.  Javier Diaz is one of these guys, and he imitates Eddie Vedder. Even if his pronunciation is not perfect, Diaz sounds damn similar to the original. Listen, and judge for yourself.

More cool performances, after the break.
