Wine Stain Portraits by Amelia Fais Harnas

By on June 13, 2012

Via her website:

A portrait artist at heart, I am particularly intrigued by the challenge of trying to control the unpredictable nature of wine bleeding through fabric in order to channel the equally imprecise nature of a person’s character. In addition, the sacred aspect of wine lends itself to religious iconography, reminding many of the Shroud of Turin: one who drinks wine may come to feel a certain level of saintliness sipping on this liquid form of divinity. So, this is a form of consecration.

They do look a bit creepy if you ask us.

We're having some issues with our host

 

(well they're kind of forcing us to upgrade our server due to traffic, apologises for the inconvenience)

 

Apparently anyway... they basically just want us to pay for a dedicated server.
