“I like instagram specially because of the new friends I make everyday.”
.
His name is Wladmir…
.
“My name is Wladmir (@Wlad), I am dentist and have a clinic, and besides that I’m a neuroscientist and professor. I have always liked art, specially photography, but I never thougt of following a professional course before I started with instagram. Until 3 years ago I painted large canvases as a hobby, but because of my intense professional life I had to take a break on my artistic side. A friend introduced me to instagram at a party and I liked it so much so I began to post personal photos and landscapes. Later, since I was missing making art, I started to make art on phone downloading photo editing apps. Today I merge photos with artistic landscapes, always trying to generate a doubt or feeling through them. I am also one of the @igersoftheday moderators and creator of @skull_portraits, and my art can be seen on this website, where the principal focus is the mobileart.”
Thank you very much Wladmir, for your contribution to this website!

You would like to be: Myself
3 items to take to a desert island: My sunglasses, A Pink Floyd CD AND a board on which is written: Do not disturb
What has been your most bizarre life experience: Being locked up at night in an elevator with a woman in an empty building, and when I asked if she is afraid of the situation she answers: “If I was alive I would be… Hahahahah…”
A super power you would like to have: To be invisible for boring and stupid people.
If you ruled the world: I certainly would end all rules.

Describe your favorite picture:
This pic had an special feature on @joshjohnson’s #jj_forum. I prefere this one because of the emotions that it provoked.
Techniques used:
I used initially picfx for the cracked effect in one of the hands. After this I used superimpose app to superimpose my hands with the lumiforms background. Finally I used snapseed for the color and contrast adjustments.
