Art of the Day: "Ilkley rooftops to Cow and Calf - (Plum), 2016" by Talia Russell

“This print is a view from Victorian Ilkley rooftops to the iconic Cow and Calf rock formation in the distance, high on Ilkley Moor.

The Cow and Calf Rocks are a large rock formation consisting of an outcrop and boulder so named because one is large, with the smaller one sitting close to it, like a cow and calf. (Can't quite see it myself!)

Ilkley Moor is famous in Yorkshire for the local dialect folk song 'on Ilkla moor bhat'at' (On Ilkley Moor without a hat).”

"Carpathians, Summer morning, 2015" by Aleksandr Kryushyn

I'm impressed by the fresh mountain air and bright colours of the Carpathian Mountains! A bright sunny morning in June in a mountain village. Alexander Kriushin is works in the traditions of the European school of fine arts, combined with the southern temperament of execution. The artist travels a lot and works en plein air, but often a plain etude is just an excuse for further work, and then the work begins in the studio.

"Awareness, 2017" by Suzana Dzelatovic

With this painting, I tried to illustrate my meditative state of mind. Gold and everything that shines and has worth are inside us. We must close our eyes to see things clearly and to find our inner treasure. Original acrylic painting. Signed on the front. Unique and one of a kind with a certificate of authenticity.
