Welcome back to another art-link extravaganza!
◊ I like Drew Green‘s graphic style—cartoony but with personality. This piece is a little different from his other work, and I like what he’s doing here, too:
The Last Thing You’ll Ever See by Drew Green
◊ Buzzfeed shared 28 soothing cinemagraphs to put your mind at ease (these GIFs really are cool and often subtle—I love the versatility. It’s not all GIF jokes, folks!). Via.
◊ Some of the most recent work by the very talented photographer Ellie Lane:
Disquiet and Desire, self-portrait by Ellie Lane (15 June 2013)
The Great Leaving, self-portrait by Ellie Lane (22 June 2013)
◊ Here’s another self-portraitist: 14-year-old Zev, who creates surreal self-portraits with the help of his 17-year-old sister Nellie. Below is one of my favorites, but check out his flickr for more (Demilked also has a nice gallery) or his blog for behind-the-scenes. Thanks to Liz Hand for posting the link on Facebook!

◊ Speaking of self-portraits, Grant Snider has a great comic titled Self Portrait at Medium.com. Here’s the first panel as an appetizer, but do go read the rest:
◊ Photoshop Live is a pretty impressive quick-action street prank (and a fine commercial for Adobe, to boot). Via.
◊ turquoisebeads made quite an impressive use of a quotation in this image:
Al Mutanabbi’s proverb:
“Just because you see the lion’s teeth, don’t assume that the lion is smiling”
The quote is written exactly six times through the image of this lion.

◊ Emil Nyström‘s photographs of his baby daughter are a pure delight. Check out Nyström’s website or this gallery at Flavorwire for more of these hilarious images.
