Fantasy Art by Japanese Artist Miho Hirano
Miho Hirano is a Japanese artist living in Abiko, Chiba. She is a graduate of Musashino Art University. The fantasy world Miho paints is inhabited by ephemeral women who seem to be merging with their environment as their hair flows into flowering tree limbs, bird filled bushes, and drifting seaweed. Not knowing all the cultural significance of the natural world in her paintings makes it hard to truly appreciate her work, but it is easy to fall in love with the wonderful women and world that she has created. Miho Hirano’s work is in a group display at the Jiro Miura Gallery in Japan until August 15, 2015. Thanks to Hi-Fructose. You can see Miho Hirano’s portfolio at mihohirano.strikingly.com

It’s been a few years since we first featured the kaleidoscopically awesome work of Australian artist Pip & Pop (previously featured here), aka Tanya Schultz, who creates dazzlingly colorful and complex site-specific installations using sugary candy, glitter, beads, sand, toys and other knickknacks. It’s painting with Pixy Stix!
Schultz often invites other artists to collaborate on the creation of her magical fluorescent dreamscapes. The pieces pictured here were created at venues in the Netherlands, Japan, Taiwan, and Australia respectively.
Visit the Pip & Pop website to check out many more photos of these sugary fantasy lands.
