and Art by Artist: #LitoLeafArt (Rito) in Loc.: Japan - Title: - #Art #Streetart #Xmas #Artist #Silhouette #LeafArt #AmiAdvent

Photography and art. An artfully cut wide leaf as a silhouette with a blurred blue sky and a field of red flowers as a background. The artist uses a cutter knife to cut detailed scenes from leaves. The photo shows a Christmas tree with a star, Christmas baubles and a garland. Below it, five animals stand in the grass and sing a Christmas carol. A deer, a frog, a rabbit and a mouse are holding a Christmas carol in their hands. A little elf with a walking stick conducts the troupe. The filigree work is held by one hand and you can see the blue sky through the cut-outs. Simply beautiful. Merry Christmas.

Artist: #BLESEA / #BleseaOne in City: somewhere in #Cherbourgh France 12/2023 - Title: untitled - ( by Project193 Berlin) - #Streetart #Art #Mural #Artist #Abandoned #Gremlin #Gizmo #AmiAdvent

Streetartwall. In an abandoned factory in France, a super cute mural of a Christmas Gremlin has been spray painted/painted in 3D. A square, half-height room (probably an office) is built into a corner of the factory building. The artist has "conjured up" a blue, open wooden treasure chest from which a fluffy creature with long ears and big eyes peers out. It has white and brown fur, a Santa hat on its head and a sad puppy dog look. With one paw on the edge, it probably wants to be let out.
Info: Gremlins is a 1984 American horror comedy about a young man who keeps a pet mogwai, a small furry imp that, when mistreated, spawns creatures that turn into aggressive monsters and wreak havoc in the city.

Artist: #ChristianKneidinger in City: #Giselawarte #Linz #Lichtenberg Austria - Title: "Travelling Teddy" - #Streetart #Art #Artist #APhotoLove #Fotografie #Travel #Teddy #Photography #AmiAdvent

Photography. A color photo of a beige teddy bear in the snow. He is standing in the snow dressed as Santa Claus with a red hat and coat. Around him is a snow-covered landscape with branches and bushes. A thin, upright branch is so frozen by the wind that the icy snow hangs in jags on one side. With the teddy bear next to it, it looks like a small flag with a flagpole. A very cute Christmas photo.
Info: Christian Kneidinger is an Austrian travel photographer who always takes his teddy bears with him on his travels around the world to photograph them in typical local situations. It started with his 40 cm tall teddy bear named John James in Iceland in 2014 and was followed by 32 countries and several teddy bears.

Nur ein Bild heute.
Artist: #AlbertGyörgy #Geneva #LakeGeneva Switzerland - ( by O. Kameneva) - #Streetart #Art #Artist #AmiAdvent #Sculpture #Terror #Magdeburg (Due to the occasion, just one photo today.)

Sculpture. A bronze sculpture on the edge of Lake Geneva with the title: "Melancholy". The bronze sculpture is a life-size man sitting on a wooden bench. His stomach is missing, he consists of arms, legs and head. There is a hole in the place of his upper body through which you can see the lake behind him. His small head is lowered and his arms are crossed on his bare thighs. Everything about this sculpture expresses sadness and despair.
Info: The photo was chosen to express deep sympathy to the victims and relatives of the terrorist attack on a Christmas market in Magdeburg on December 20, 2024.

Streetart. A beautiful mural with a Christmas motif was painted on the old door of a modern clothing store. The red-painted door forms the background for a large, smiling snowman with a top hat and tartan scarf. A beige cat sits next to him and looks at him with interest. Another cat is painted on the letterbox next to the door. The door itself is decorated with a Christmas tree arch and a Christmas door wreath, above which there is lighting with fir greenery.
Info: The door was painted last year for Advent and looked different the rest of the year. Only the cat remained and the rest of the door was painted half pink and half white. This year the snowman is back, a deer head and many other things have been added, but unfortunately the cat has disappeared. What a pity.

Photography. A black and white photo of a single conifer in the snow. The tree stands on a very steep snow-covered hill and is bent at the bottom but has grown straight again at the top. The minimalist photo shows the power of nature.

by Artist: #KseniaBelanger in Loc.: #NorthCarolina USA - Title: "Letter to Santa" - #Streetart #Art #WishList #Artist #Fotografie #Photography #Children #APhotoLove #AmiAdvent Website: https://www.kseniabelangerphotography.com/

Photography. A beautiful color photo of a little girl sending a wish list to Santa Claus. The picture shows a country lane between two long rows of green fir trees. A little girl in a bobble hat, beige winter dress and white woolly sweater is standing in front of a red letterbox. She stands on tiptoe and pushes a large red envelope with the word "Santa" inside. (It's easy to forgive the trickling snow in the photo, which was probably added later). A typical Christmas card photo, but so heart-warming and skillfully taken by a professional children's photographer that you'll melt away like the snow.

and Art by Artist: #DavidPopaArt in City: unknown, Baltica Sea - Title: "Emergence" ("Auftauchen") - #Streetart #Art #Artist #Painting #Ice #Portrait #Photography #Fotografie #Drone #Winter #Landart #AmiAdvent Website: https://www.davidpopaart.com/

Photography. A color photo taken by drone shows an unusual and huge ground painting on a frozen island in the Baltic Sea. The island, surrounded by rippling ice edges, rises out of the frozen water and is the perfect canvas for a portrait of a woman's face. The picture shows the head of a woman with closed eyes, half submerged in the icy water. The dimension can be recognized by the fact that the artist is standing tiny next to the head on the ice. The huge work of art was created using only charcoal and water from an ordinary garden sprayer and will therefore disappear of its own accord.
Info: According to the artist, the artwork entitled "Emergence" is about renewal, resilience and the beauty of scars. It is a kind of baptism - a figure marked by the past, but resurrected and ready for something new.

Photography. A black and white photo of a fir tree in which a woman appears to be stuck. The unusual photograph shows a room with two-part patterned wallpaper, a patterned floor and three old-fashioned looking chairs on the wall. In this corner of the room is a woman stuck in a fir tree. You can only see her slender legs at the bottom and two hands sticking out of the tree in the middle. A very funny photo that would be perfect for a Christmas card. Every year again

Photography. A beautiful color photo of a squirrel standing next to a mini snowman. The photographer has made a tiny snowman with a carrot nose, twigs for arms and berries for eyes and buttons and placed it in the snow and waited. The squirrel has inspected the snowman closely and is now standing there with its ears perked up and its paws on the snowman's head, looking directly into the camera. Or perhaps it has built the snow companion itself?

Artist: #SarahTasker ( #MeAndOrla ) in City: #Halifax #WestYorkshire UK 2018 - Title: *Almost* - #Art #Streetart #Artist #Fotografie #Photography #XmasTree #APhotoLove #Artist #AmiAdvent

Photography. A beautiful color photo of a small light blue vintage car with an illuminated Christmas tree on the roof, set against a rural backdrop . The backdrop is somewhat misty and semi-dark, all green and blue, with green meadows and individual houses in the background. This beautiful idea of the already decorated and illuminated Christmas tree, which is still lying strapped to the roof of the car, together with the colors, conveys a beautiful Christmas atmosphere.
Note: The small car that looks like a car from the fifties is a Nissan Figaro and was built in retro style from 1989.

Urbanart. A 35,000 sq foot, black and white mural of butterflies was painted in the snow on the roof of a high-rise building in Miami. The photo was taken with a drone and shows the snow-covered ground on which 18 large butterflies with different patterns and sizes were painted with black paint. The five air conditioning turbines look like small flowers. The view of the surroundings shows more skyscrapers and the dizzying height of the whole thing. Simply magnificent.
Info: The artist "Mantra" alias Youri Cancell paints acrylic paintings with rollers and brushes on multi-storey residential buildings all over the world. As a rule, his butterflies are colorful, as he paints the butterfly species found at the respective location true to nature.

#FondoNegroGraffiti Fest #AmiAdvent

Streetartwall. A Christmas mural with a female cartoon character was sprayed/painted on a long street wall. The green beauty is a Grinch and wears her hair tied in a plait, with a red bow on her head. She is also wearing a red and white polka dot Christmas dress. Her facial expression shows that she is extremely annoyed by the Christmas hustle and bustle. The cute Grinch is also just part of the wall. Santa Claus, who is holding a string of lights in his hands, cannot be seen in the photo. The cute Grinchette was simply irresistible and won the frame.

Streetartwall. A socially critical mural was sprayed/painted on a white street wall and incorporates the surroundings behind it. A blue male figure with a cap can be seen on the wall, slumped on the ground. He seems to be freezing, but a face is not recognizable. Next to him we see the façade of a high-rise building with red balconies and the trunks of two trees, painted to match the actual surroundings behind the wall. Behind the wall are the tree and a white skyscraper with red balconies. Some of the trees are not in the picture to better show off the building behind it. A touching mural about the sometimes invisible poverty in a big city.

Streetartwall. On a long brown wall, at the top of a parking deck, there is a funny mural of a cartoon-style Santa Claus who is struggling with small problems. The fat, red Santa is flying over the wall trying to reach a gift package flying in the air in front of him. He has farted and the double wind backlash seems to have thrown him off course. Sorry for the alt text, but that's exactly what was painted on the wall.

Website: http://www.gnashermurals.com

Streetart. A cute, Christmassy picture of a mastodon was painted on the window of a library. It shows a little brown-haired girl in red pyjamas holding a glowing lantern and riding a shaggy brown mammoth through the snow. A cathedral and stars can be seen in the background. A very cute idea for a library.
Info: The original drawing was created by Quentin Blake for the book "The Ice Monster" by British comedian and author David Walliams. Sir Quentin Saxby Blake CH (born December 16, 1932) is a fantastic British cartoonist, illustrator and children's book author.

Photography. A black and white photo with a view from above from a balcony onto a snow-covered street with a very funny perspective. A man in black clothing can be seen from above, leaning over the railing of a balcony. Below on the street, moving and parked vehicles can be seen in the snow. The man on the balcony has raised his arm and is covering a dark car on the street below with his hand. The perspective from above makes it look as if he is playing with a small toy car.

by Artist: #FranMiller in City: #Hertfordshire UK 1981 - Title: Peter Hollands "Mr. Robotham the Great" - #Streetart #Art #Photography #APhotoLove #PeterHolland #Robot Time for #MyWishList #AmiAdvent

Photography. A black and white photo of a 1.80 m (6-foot 3-inch) tall robot ironing laundry. The tall silver tin man has a somewhat angular build, an oval helmet with a visor for a head, a narrow waist and arms with gripping tongs. He is standing behind the ironing board in his inventor's living room, ironing a shirt. The living room is still furnished in the typical style of the 1970s, with abstract art above the fireplace, a television and plush carpeting.
Info: The large roboter (Super lightweight at 6 1/2 pounds), was invented by Peter Holland. "Mr Robotham the Great" is a 6 foot tall walking, talking robot who can also shake hands, bend knees to sit, and all functions are operated by radio control, but only for three hours - then its batteries have to be recharged.
