The Latvian Rifleman. Riga, Latvia

I love this statue like no other! the expression on the face is empty but can be translated into so very much. To me it shows the power of the old soviet state, it reflects cubism, and communism at the same time. It's just a really beautiful sculpture. I wanted to digitally paint it.. so that I always have a version of something so beautiful which I could be a part of.

Ferrofluid Sculptures

A ferrofluid (from the Latin ferrum, meaning iron) is a liquid which becomes strongly polarised in the presence of a magnetic field.

Ferrofluids are composed of nanoscale ferromagnetic particles suspended in a carrier fluid, usually an organic solvent or water. The ferromagnetic nano-particles are coated with a surfactant to prevent their agglomeration (due to van der Waals and magnetic forces). Although the name may suggest otherwise, ferrofluids do not display ferromagnetism, since they do not retain magnetisation in the absence of an externally applied field. In fact, ferrofluids display paramagnetism, and are often referred as being "superparamagnetic" due to their large magnetic susceptibility. True ferromagnetic fluids are difficult to create at present.
