Check out this "Sorcerer's Apprentice"-esque vision of the creative process, by Dutch painter Thijme Termaat. The stop-motion ride through Termaat's studio toggles between the micro and macro, zooming into a painting of the woods so you can see the tree bark, and creating the illusion of Termaat as a magician who works with a swish of his hand. It's only a matter of time before there's an iPad app for paint-by-magic, and it will be our favorite.

Your "amazing" headlines are often overused, but not in this case.

Brilliant!

The best commercial for an artist ever. And I mean that as a compliment; artists unfortunately have a ter rible time getting recognized.
