    Olga Szynkarczuk – Dancers, Mothers, Daughters

    Colour pencil on paper sketch in rainbow colours of dancer @shardae.rose.angel. An ambidextrous mix of rainbow colored gestures. Ethereal, fairly-like, yet at the same time incredibly strong and powerful, a professionally classically trained ballet dancer. Her poses are so gracious, expressive, her body so skinny and elegant. I admire her strength to go against the flow, tackle the issues of promoting eating disorders by the ballet industry and setting up her own dance company.

    Nick Stevens

    This image is a photograph of a framed painting titled "Five Sardines on Faded Teal" by Nick Stevens. The artwork features five sardines painted in a bold, expressive style. The fish are arranged in a vertical line, one above the other, against a textured background of faded teal. Each sardine is depicted with broad, visible brushstrokes in a mix of silver, blue, purple, and hints of gold, with distinctive dark spots along their bodies. The tailfins are rendered in shades of bronze and brown. The overall effect is vibrant and dynamic, with a sense of movement and a slightly abstracted realism. The painting is displayed in a simple black frame and hangs on a plain white wall.
