Loving Vincent          12 paintings in a second , painted in Van Gogh's post-impressionistic style .        Loving Vincent is the upcoming first fully painted animated film . The film focuses on telling the story of Vincent Van Gogh . It is written and directed by Dorota Kobiela and Hugh Welchman . The unique thing about this film is none other than the fact that each of the film's 65,000 frames is an oil painting on canvas , using the same technique as Van Gogh , created by a team of 115 oil painters . I was fascinated by the fact that they are making this film through paintings , even though this is the reason why it is tougher to make the film . It is also mentioned that using Van Gogh's paintings and letters , Kobiela and Welchman were able to create a story which gives an insight on Van Gogh's life , career and his mysterious suicide . As the paintings provided the visual stimulus , the idea to create the whole film in Van Go...

Yuken Teruya      Yuken Teruya is a Japanese artist who works with various materials such as toilet paper rolls , paper shopping bags and such . It was said that his ideas reflect life and history of his homeland , Okinawa . In my opinion , his works looks very interesting and comfortable to our eyes , probably because he is working with recycling materials and the colours look very natural . But to create such small yet detailed sculptures out of  papers is something about him that fascinated me . Yuken Teruya's works are also very unusual to me as they all somehow remind me of elegance.

A potato had been witnessing all these scenes where it sees it ’s comrades being eaten in the cruel ways . It felt a great fear in facing it’s destiny as a potato and it’s inner thought had created a miracle , which is why it turned into a potato girl in the next morning . It was so shocked yet happy as it thought that it doesn't need to be eaten like how it’s comrades were . Then again , it realized that there is a short amount of time ( maybe 9 am to 6 pm ) for it to continue being a human , meaning that it’s life is still on stack due to the period where it stays in the form of “ potato” .    When it became a human again , it thought of taking revenge on humans who have been eating it’s fellow potatoes .
