Wheat Field with Cypresses by Vincent van Gogh, 1889.

The painting portrays a lush wheat field under a swirling, expressive sky. A prominent cypress tree rises dramatically from the field, its dark, flame-like silhouette creating a striking contrast against the sky and surrounding landscape. In the background, rolling hills and olive trees add depth and texture to the scene.

A young reddish-brown ginger cat stands on the floor and looks up curiously and expectantly, as if waiting for someone to play with it. The background is abstractly painted in soft, warm earth tones that echo the colors of the cat's fur. Contrasting colour accents in light blue emphasise the cat's facial features and draw attention to her curious and playful expression.
Playful ginger cat is an acrylic painting in landscape format hand-painted by the artist Karen Kaspar.

🌼 Artist: #MistaSed in City: #Cologne #Köln Germany 🇩🇪 2023 - Title: "Wuffelpuffelz 💕" - #Streetart #Art #Artist #Mural #Wuffelpuffelz

Streetartwall. A funny cartoon character has been spray-painted on a square pink stand-up display. It looks like a round, fat bird with big yellow-blue googly eyes that stand together, a tiny, pointed pink beak and a gray-black plumage that makes it look like an exploding, round ball of wool. He wears little sneakers and is surrounded by countless colorful flowers. The innocent look in his big eyes and the little flowers... It's an explosion of kindness.

The “Lithographies originales Album n°1” by Georges de Feure, created around 1898, is a collection of original lithographs showcasing the artist's mastery of the Art Nouveau style. Georges de Feure was a prominent figure in the Art Nouveau movement, known for his elegant and ornamental designs that often featured ethereal women, floral motifs, and an overall sense of mysticism and refinement.

Did Hilma af Klint draw inspiration from 19th century physics?

Diagrams from Thomas Young's 1807 Lectures bear striking resemblance to abstract figures in af Klint's work.

A tender, dreamlike portrait of a beloved cat, its curious eyes hidden behind a delicate cascade of vivid pink roses. The soft petals rest gently against its detailed black-and-white fur, as if nature itself has chosen this feline as its canvas. There’s a quiet whimsy in the way the vibrant blooms frame the cat’s face, transforming it into a vision of surreal beauty and playful charm. This piece feels like a love letter to the harmony between the natural world and the irresistible magic of a cherished companion. Art by Lisa S Baker.

Relaxing cat in the green is a hand-painted acrylic painting in landscape format by the artist Karen Kaspar. A red and white tabby cat sits in a meadow in lush green grass with its eyes closed. She is relaxing and enjoying the day. The reddish-brown fur with white stripes and the grass have been painted with loose and lively brushstrokes. The picture conveys a calm and peaceful mood.

This work, a combination of painting and haiku, is a joint project by Karen Kaspar (© art and artwork) and Marjolein Rotsteeg (© Haiku).
A haiku is a traditional Japanese poetry form consisting of three lines.

Here the acrylic painting was supplemented with the haiku in English.

Golden Sunrise is an abstract acrylic painting in portrait format painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. The picture is painted in bright orange and turquoise tones. Imagine sitting on the beach in the early morning and watching the sun rise over the sea. The golden sunlight turns the sky into a lake of warm yellow and orange. The sun's rays are reflected by the water surface. The early birds sing their song and the fishermen prepare their nets. Everything is calm, the air is fresh. Take a deep breath, relax and recharge your batteries with positive energy to start a new day.

Can you imagine this image on a very large metal or acrylic print? The colors turned out beautiful.

Just before Christmas, our annual trip to Bosque del Apache, NM. At dawn thousands of snow geese having just settled in across the water, all at once took to the air again, flying directly overy our heads. A matter of seconds it was over.

American Surrealist artist and poet Kay Sage died #OTD in 1963.

Kay Sage became deeply involved with the Surrealist movement after moving to Paris in the late 1930s.

Her paintings often feature architectural and industrial elements, barren landscapes, and abstract, machine-like forms. Unlike many male Surrealists who favored dreamlike imagery, Sage's work is characterized by stark, linear compositions and an eerie, desolate quality.
