Handimals Hand Painting by Guido Daniele


I'd like to wrap up this week with Guido Daniele's awesome work.

Guido Daniele is a an artist who currently lives and works in Milan, Italy. He attended Brera artistic High School from 1964 to 1968 and graduated from Brera School of Arts with majors in sculpturing in 1972. He also worked in India while he studied at Tankas school in Dharamsala. In 1990, he started doing body painting as well as series of incredible animals painted on the human hand which he calls "handimals".





Isn't his work just exquisite! I am blow away by the intricacy and details in each of his paintings. I hope you enjoy his work as much as I did. You can find more of his work on his website. Enjoy and have a wonderful weekend. See you back on Monday!

I have been coveting this Burberry Prorsum owl cashmere sweater ever since I set my eyes on it. But I couldn't justify the price. It'll cost you a whopping $1200 to own this baby. But with this amazing diy by Cathy who seems to share my love for the sweater has created an amazing tutorial with step by step instructions on how to make your own owl sweater for fraction of the cost. For the entire tutorial and materials you'll need for the project go here.
