Street Art and Sequins: Theresa Himmer
I love this beautiful street art by Danish artist Theresa Himmer. These pieces are from the Mountain Series and made with sequins on buildings in Reykjavik, Iceland. I would love to see them in person - I'm sure they are amazing in the sunlight.

Love of shapes and colors - Photography by Filippo Minelli
I just discovered and absolutely love and am inspired by these beautiful paint bomb photographs by Italian artist Filippo Minelli. Kind of a hybrid between urban street art and installation art and photography. I wish I had the 400 euros to buy a set of his limited edition prints! They are part of his Silence/Shapes series and you can find more of his amazing work at his website.
