Repost from @ruthlerouxpaintings ‘ Night Swimming’ And some inspiration lately. Which is pretty much always nature and how insanely incredible it is. Humans can be cool too, as long as you stay off the news and spend time with rad people.

We love this one too! Repost from @astridblumerillustration • One of my favourite pieces from last year… Here in Shanghai~La – ‘An earthly paradise, particularly a mythical Himalayan utopia – an enduringly happy land, isolated from the world. The people who live in Shangri-La are almost immortal, living hundreds of years beyond the normal lifespan and only very slowly aging in appearance.’ 🌴🌴🌴 Acrylic ink on paper 400 x 400 mm. Framed in Walnut. SOLD

Repost from @mishvania_art A little snippet of the current piece I am working on, made using the leftover bits from a foil balloon my friend @katrien021 salvaged back in 2022, just as it was drifting out to sea. What a catastrophe that could’ve been! Plastic bags and balloons pose a huge threat to marine life, often mistaken as food. Also incorporated into this piece are recently found sweet and lollipop wrappers, collected on my beach walks. #seatostudio #mishvania_art #oceanplastic #plasticpollution #beachplastic #artsculpture #oceanpollution #southafricanartists #blingingblooms #foilballoon #lollipop
