Winter can be miserable, but these creative geniuses decided to turn the freezing cold into a comedy show. Here are 10 cars that woke up with a whole new attitude.
Instead of just scraping the ice and grumbling about the temperature, these anonymous street artists saw a blank canvas. From accidental icicle-punks to cars that look like they’re plotting something, these 10 photos prove that snow is just nature’s paint.
Even the police aren’t safe from the “Cars” movie treatment. These vans look like they are plotting something mischievous—or maybe they’re just happy to not be on patrol in the blizzard.
2. Punk’s Not Dead
This car didn’t just get snowed on; it grew a mohawk. The way the icicles have formed spikes gives this little red ride the most rebellious look in the entire parking lot. It’s arguably the coolest car in town.
3. Feeling Cheeky
A wink and a tongue out. This Volkswagen proves that a little bit of snow can bring out a car’s true personality. It’s amazing how a few swipes of a gloved hand can create such a distinct expression.
4. The Big Sniffer
When the snow piles up heavily on the hood, you have to work with what you’ve got. This artist sculpted a nose that could smell spring coming a mile away. It gives the car a grumpy, sophisticated look.
5. The Passengers
Why scrape the whole window when you can just draw your passengers? This is a brilliant way to clear just enough space to drive while telling a funny story about who is (or isn’t) in the car with you.
6. Wide Awake
This Peugeot looks absolutely thrilled to be freezing cold. That wide, toothy grin is enough to wake anyone up on a grey morning. It’s hard to be grumpy about the weather when your car is this happy.
7. Morning Commute Moods
Someone took the time to go down the entire row. Every emotion of the morning commute is captured here, from sleepy and suspicious to wide-eyed and worried. This row of cars represents us all before the first cup of coffee.
8. The Gossip Circle
A bird’s eye view of a parking lot personality crisis. It looks like they are all gossiping about the car next to them. Simple lines, maximum effect.
9. Love at First Frost
Who says parking lots aren’t romantic? These two neighboring cars were given eyes that gaze adoringly at one another. It’s clearly a winter date that is going very well.
10. Mr. Happy
Sometimes the simplest art is the best. A classic smiley face on a mint green car is just wholesome content. It’s a reminder that winter doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom.
Winter isn’t just about shoveling driveways and shivering in the cold. For those with a bit of imagination, a fresh blanket of snow is the ultimate blank canvas.
From giant puns on a sidewalk to ghosts that got caught in the frost, these 8 photos show that a little bit of freezing weather is no match for a great sense of humor. When the world turns white, it’s the perfect time to remind everyone that nature can be just as funny as it is beautiful.
There is such a thing as “too cold to haunt.” This unfortunate spirit seems to have been caught mid-scare during a record-breaking frost, ending up as a permanent (at least until spring) addition to the building’s architecture. It’s a perfect example of how a bit of ice and the right location can create an accidental masterpiece.
2. Giant Eyeglasses by Pavel Puhov in Russia
The late Pavel Puhov, also known as Pasha P183, was famous for his “street installations.” By using a simple streetlight as the temple piece for a giant pair of glasses drawn in the snow, he transformed a lonely park into a character. It’s a brilliant use of scale and existing urban elements.
3. Snow Angel Frog by David Zinn
David Zinn is the king of small-scale magic. Here, he’s used a simple hole in the snow to house one of his signature characters, making it look like the little guy just completed a very successful snow angel. It’s a quiet, whimsical interaction that rewards those who are actually looking where they walk.
This is one way to ensure you never get bills. Someone turned their mailbox into the wide-open mouth of a snow monster, complete with a leafy crown. It’s a great example of “guerrilla” winter art that turns a boring household chore into a reason for neighbors to stop and smile.
5. “Two Feet” of Snow
A literal pun is sometimes the best kind of art. Instead of complaining about the accumulation, these residents spent their time sculpting two massive, realistic feet on the sidewalk. It’s a visual joke that lands perfectly for anyone who has ever heard a weather report warn about “two feet of snow.”
6. Dromeas (The Runner) in Athens, Greece
Usually, this iconic sculpture made of stacked glass shards looks like it’s mid-sprint through the Mediterranean heat. But when a rare snowstorm hits Athens, the glass captures the white frost, making the “Runner” look like an ice-giant charging through the city. It shows how weather can completely redefine a permanent statue.
7. The Snow Cats
Simple, effective, and adorable. By packing snow against the bark of trees in a local park, someone created a family of white cats “climbing” to the safety of the branches. It’s a low-effort, high-impact way to add a bit of life to a dormant winter forest.
8. Sledding Into Reality by David Zinn
Another David Zinn masterpiece where the art “leaks” out of the environment. A tiny alien character is seen sledding out of a massive snow pile and onto the bare pavement. It’s a clever use of the transition between the shoveled path and the winter piles, making the sidewalk feel like a playground.

Luna Lee: Today more than ever the message of the wall is latent. Two years ago Chile demanded a change and in two weeks we will have to defend the few but important advances we have made. We must protect our society from those who think that the economy is above peace, respect for diversity and nature and human rights.

“Science and Faith” by Eduardo Kobrain São Paulo, Brazil at Hospital Das Clinicas FMUSP.
It’s called ‘Science and Faith’, and its message is straightforward: there is no contradiction between believing in God and medicine
Eduardo Kobra: Congratulations, São Paulo, my hometown, on your 468th anniversary! My gift is this 200 square meter (2,150 sq ft) mural, now shown on one of the facades of Clínicas Hospital, an internationally recognized medical center. It’s called ‘Science and Faith’, and its message is straightforward: there is no contradiction between believing in God and medicine. I hope this work gives a touch of hope to all who need to go to this important hospital — and symbolizes our gratitude to the professionals who work there.

📖 According to the Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, the world will end on a Saturday. A Saturday quite soon, in fact.
The whole of our six-part adapation of @neilhimself and Terry Pratchett's wonderful 1990 fantasy Good Omens is on BBC Sounds now - and you can listen from anywhere in the world. Tell your friends, good or evil.
A man walks by a cafe that has a sign in its window: PIANO PLAYER WANTED. He grabs the sign, walks in the cafe and says to the manager, "I play the piano. I'd like to have the piano player's job." The manager says, "Well, let's hear you play first."
The man sits down and plays the most beautiful song the manager has ever heard. The manager is crying for joy at the beauty of the song. "That song is so wonderful!" he exclaims. "But I've never heard it before. I must know what it's called!"
"Well," the man says, "it's an original tune. I wrote it myself. It's called 'The I've Got Dog Shit on My Pecker and Rover's Done Run Off Blues.' "
"Oh," says the manager, taken somewhat aback.
"Well, do you know any other songs?". "Sure!" says the man, and begins to play a song even more beautiful than the first one. The manager is once again beside himself with emotion, swept away even more than he was by the first song.
"Oh my God!" he shouts. "Never have I seen such artistry! And again, a song I've never heard! I must know the name of this beautiful song!"
The man says, "Thank you. It's another original tune that I wrote myself. It's called 'The Blow Your Brother, Fuck a Goat, and Tell Me That You Love Me Waltz, in D Minor.' "
The manager thinks for a moment and says, "Look, I like the way you play piano, and I'm going to hire you. But only on one condition: Don't ever tell my customers the names of the songs that you're playing."
The man agrees and comes in to play that very night. The crowd is stunned by his mastery of the piano and the beauty of his compositions. He gets a standing ovation at the end of each one of his songs. At the end of an hour and a half, the man has to go to the bathroom, so he stops playing and announces to the audience, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm going to take a short break now. Please stay and enjoy a drink, and I'll be back to play again for you in fifteen minutes."
After he pees, he forgets to zip up his zipper. On his way out of the bathroom another man stops him and says: "Hey, do you know your zipper's undone and your cock's hanging out?"
