teh tarik, which means pulled tea.
Hong Yi says she created the piece because she wanted to recreate an everyday scene unique
to the culture of Malaysia.
Amy Shackleton is a painter who uses condiment bottles instead of brushes.
By using a rotating canvas, water, and squeeze bottles she paints colorful works that bring
together the rigid straight lines of a city with the organic movements of nature.
And she hopes her paintings inspire conversations about the cohabitation of humans and the environment.
And now for the work of Julia Dillon, a freelance sci fi and fantasy artist from California.
Lorraine Loots has an ongoing series called paintings for ants.
She plans to paint 100 miniature pictures this year and picks her subject based on what
day of the week it is, like Microcosm Mondays, or Free Fridays.
She’s auctioning off each painting on instagram so if you know any ants that love art, let
them know.
