I couldn't resist posting another mushroom shot - slightly different composition and processing on this one. I just love the detail.
Symmetry is usually defined as a sense of "balanced proportions" or "the quality of having parts that match each other," especially in an attractive way. And, when you think about it, it is all around us. Whether we look at human beings, architecture, art, or biology, there’s nothing more fascinating than seeing how the world is full of perfect forms and harmony.

Since the ancient Greeks, realism has been aspired by Western art lovers, but during the late 1960s and '70s the popularity of highly-realistic drawings reached its peak. Thus, Photorealism and Hyperrealism were born. These perspective drawing genres are still popular, and some artists master their technique so successfully that it becomes hard to tell an oil painting or a pencil drawing from a photograph. Bored Panda collected some of the best examples of this cool art and made a stunning list for you to enjoy.

There’s an undeniable allure to watching how the shadow perfectly lines up with the pavement. Or how the tiles align in shockingly neat repetitive patterns. Or how the trees and leaves present themselves in ideal forms and harmony. It’s hard to explain why these everyday oddities look so dreamy, but tapping into these moments of magic seems to scratch an itch we didn't even know we had.
e alla fine è venuto fuori il fantasma dell'incenso...
2020 Topic 2: A Hint of Spring Hi everyone, Keren here. This topic is a chance to explore some of the new PaperArtsy Paint colours recently added to the Fresco Paint collection. Think soft greens, mauves and pinks, or maybe Seth's colours of subtle blue, cream and green which are also reminiscent of Spring, yet still offer that cosy, relaxing vibe of calm. Jo Firth-Young does pastels so well, and this is a perfect example. Jo Firth Young Leandra's tutorial on brayered backgrounds (this is part 2) utilises lots of delicious pastels. Pastels don't have to mean boring nor lack of depth. PaperArtsy Lets take a look at some palette options that might steer you in the direction we are heading. First up, some greens with neutrals. It's tempting to add a pop of colour to bring dynamism into your artistic endeavours, but these next two images show just how restful and beautiful pastels with a good neutral added in, can be. Ballard Designs TrendLand Starting to add in more greys and blue undertones takes the palette in a different direction. If you add in a warm tone of yellow, look where you end up..it brings a vivacity but still rocks the pastel palette. Dots To Lines How about greens and pinks? The peachy tones help the pinks from being too sickly sweet and the almost mossy green helps balance the combination and provide an almost neutral colour. Sarah K Wisombe Who doesn't love a mason jar? These beauties are a wonderful receptacle for the very best that springtime affords us! Home Made Lovely How about green and mauve? This stunner of a card shows the value of adding in metallics to pastel schemes. It can be pared back and sparingly used to bring warmth and bounce a little light off your art. Anna Griffin We all use paper on a regular basis, but this example is a wonderful updated version of quilling and plays around with colour in a clever way. Yulia Brodskaya Here's another image with a similar scheme. The shine from the glazed ceramic hearts combined with the raised texture is sublime. Dottery Pottery If we add blues into the purple-y combo, we have a gentle, relaxed scheme. You can almost smell the lavender! Phoebe Dreams Continuing with the cooler lavenders, we transition into the greyer blue purple tones. Source Toleshack If we really dial up the greys, the colour scheme becomes very subdued, elegant and gentle. Shari Carroll You can see all these options so far plus more on Leandra's pinterest page here to get you started in this pastel zone. You may not be ready, but pastel shade are going to be quite big in 2020. Not so wishy washy, but cleaner, greener, crisp shades of pastel. Before we head into these more summery tones, let's softly warm into it with a softer version of the palette. Scrap Art By Lady E Let's look at some images of brighter, slightly bolder pastels. Source This lively water-coloured panel uses colour blending to great effect. Pastel perfection! Source Hopefully there's one set of pastel colours that has piqued your interest. From the cool and subtle to the brighter summery ones, there's so much to choose from. Do explore the new colours of Fresco Acrylic paints to see the plethora of pastel possibilities.

Black is both the absence of colour and the strength that bestows depth and hues to its surroundings.
Trends of 2019. As design becomes more and more digitized, designers and artists look back to the most simplest forms of colour, elements, materials to bring their art back to the real world. Something that links us to the ground beneath our feet.
I live in the core of the Boreal Forest in the interior of Alaska. These woods offer a landscape of spindly spruce trees, quaking aspens, and birches. There are endless opportunities for forest photography.
