Chuck Pinson, 1978 | Romantic painter

The dramatic and popular landscape art of Chuck Pinson takes you away to inspiring and uplifting places. It's art to dive into and drift away.

Chuck has a unique God-given, ability to create beautiful scenes that transport you to idyllic places and offer a bit of peace in the midst of this often chaotic world.

His love of beauty, nature, nostalgia, and the ethereal comes through in his dramatic interpretations of the beauty we experience and perceive around us.

Whether it's the depiction of friendly communities, times past by, or the grandeur of the countryside, Chuck wants to bring you to the place where you can feel the water flowing, hear the birds chirping, and almost touch the soft grass or colorful blooms, so that you can sit back, relax and dream.

George Redhawk | Surrealist Animated GIFs Art

American artist🎨 George Redhawk creates eerily beautiful gifs even though he's legally blind.

With help from computer software, the designer utilizes the art of gif-making to show others how he sees the world as a man who suddenly lost his sight.

"It’s an artistic expression of the confusion I go through with my vision loss", Redhawk told The Creators Project. "Not enough data getting sent to the brain, and it tries to fill in the blanks with false information, so you can’t trust what your eyes or brain are telling you".

The result is an impressive collection of moving art, called The World Through My Eyes !
