With all of the creative digital photography apps available for smartphones, it’s cool to see artists using traditional photographs and organic design to manipulate the photos to create something a little different, but mostly inspiring.
Raleigh-based artist and landscape architect Scott Hazard uses carefully layered photographs to create delicately torn concentric shapes symbolizing plumes of smoke, clouds, and mysterious portals in walls. Hazard has also used adaptations of the same technique to create a number of fantastic typographic works he calls Text Constructs.
Take a look at these:
Cool, right?
This kind of art makes me think of the art done with smoke and fire, as well as the espresso painters. A subtle mix of traditional and non-traditional art forms. I hope John’s Mom like these (CC: TentBlogger).

This is pretty darn awesome. Though, it makes me think of a wormhole or some temporal displacement. Basically, a Doctor Who-ish type thing.
