I cannot wait for spring to come, my favourite season! This self-portrait by @danielle4photo just comes at the right moment in this cold winter - the blooming season is here (at least visually)!

We were just one hot minute away from heaven thanks to the mere sight of this gilded open-weave @alexandermcqueen vest but then - boom! - the angelic ear wings that Szilveszter Makó's muse is wearing....whoa.....pure perfection.😇

Given the refined elegance of this beautifully poetic Art Nouveau-esque portrait by Karen Offutt (@karenoffutt), which - presumably - must have taken one billion hours of sweat equity to manifest, it is a little surprising to learn that she's actually a huge proponent of the 'less is more approach' to her craft.
In an article that she penned for @realism.today, she explained:
“Before my formal education in art, I was very detailed in my drawing and painting. Then I learned that for every five brush strokes, I should do three, and so on. That more efficient approach enabled me to see past the detail and to get the impression of realism—to have an understanding of creating something with more of a three-dimensional effect, using less information.”
We are still admittedly dazzled by this gilded spectacle of femininity married with nature and now think that perhaps Karen's sweat equity hovers in the far more realistic nine hundred ninety one thousand hour range.

👨🏿🤝👨🏻ARTSY TWINSIE ALERT!👨🏿🤝👨🏻
These painting/photo doppelgangers by @adnate (IMAGE 1/3) and @photography_by_black_cockatoo (IMAGE 2) - featuring photographer Luther Cora's own daughter decked out in traditional aboriginal garb - are individually striking in their own right.
It's impossible to decide which - painting or photo?!?!? - is our favorite since what each artist has manifested delivers so much individual aesthetic shazaam...and OH the colorrrrrrrs😍

Does everybody realize just how magical little video clips like this are, and how much **time** creatives invest in them so that we can experience a blip of joy?
They sure DO make the sun shine a little brighter, don't they?
The light-hearted visual buffet that Loulou João (@louloujoao) serves up is soooo delicious, sooooo scrumptious, soooo full of soul-elevating fun....we're smitten over and over again.
Once you check out her social media account(s), you're going to lose track of the next hour!
You totally owe it to yourself, though. Consider it your much-deserved happy self care time!✨

How is this NOT a painting, you ask?
We're in exactly the same state of disbelief...and yet it's a photo that Sarfo Emmanuel Annor (@sarfogh_) captured and creatively tweaked on a cellphone!
Wonders never cease.
"Dear Little Black Girl" is a truly striking composition that sizzles with a positively HIGH VOLTAGE level of color but - at the same time - it tenderly captures the pure innocence of youth.
We are utterly smitten. A glorious work of art that deserves a rousing round of applause 👏💗 👏💗👏

Is this sculpture by @polballonga the size of a collectible action figure, or a box of cheesy crackers, or perhaps a spry wildebeest?
It occurred to us that we *really should know* the answer to this question since Pol Ballonga entered our annual Art Prize in 2020 and was one of our @yashayoungprojects Sculpture Award Finalists!
We did a little snooping around on his social media accounts (not stalker-y at all - haaa!) and tah-dahhhh...the answer can be found in slide #2 of this post...and look, you can also see the Barcelona-born artist screwing in a lightbulb while perched on a ladder.💡
Everybody say✋hi to Pol - he makes really cool sculptures!

"Myco", which - in Latin - means fungi, and "rhiza", which means root, is a slightly familiar word (sometimes spelled "mycorrhizae" or "mycorrhization") for all the 'shroom fans out there.
Did you know that approximately 90% of all plants have a symbiotic relationship with fungus?
Through mycorrhization, plants are able to draw phosphorous, zinc, copper, and nitrogen from the soil.
In return, they offer fungus a huge thanks for their delicious, nutrient-packed buffet by providing them with their photosynthetic carbon.
This truly special painting by Autumn Skye shines an otherworldly spotlight on the behind-the-scenes relationship between the forest dwelling organisms that so wisely work in tandem for a common good🍄
