Oil on Canvas,  Figurative Realism

This painting depicts a realistic museum diorama featuring Alaska brown bears. In the foreground, three people observe the exhibit from a dimly lit museum interior, their backs turned to the viewer. The diorama showcases two bears in a vibrant naturalistic setting, with one bear standing upright and the other on all fours near a reflective stream.

 The background is painted with high mountains covered in snow and an overcast sky to depict the idea of Alaska wilderness.
The contrast between light  outdoor scene within the diorama contrasts with the shadowy interior of the museum space. 
The painting captures themes of observation, representation, and the juxtaposition between natural environments and human-made displays. The realistic detail in both the figures and the diorama adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the relationship between the viewers and the artwork.

ART BY LIN WEI

GRANDMA'S TEA

A Force for Humanity, Beauty and Love.

This piece is from a two part body of work

that speaks on the situation in Congo where kids of very young age have

had to resort to immersive child labor just to survive and fend

themselves, they mine the fields morning and night to obtain cobalt

which is a substance used by big European companies to produce

batteries which are in turn used to make our mobile phones and other devices. Thousands

of kids have died and thousands are displaced away from home. The

works captures their frustration and questions the viewer for a way forward.

Solitude's Embrace

Bar art from a bartender

The final moment of cocktail creation, garnishing the drink, in this instance the expression of the oils of an orange peel to the drink, the beams and relfections from the bar bouncing off of tins and wood and metal, a scene draped in darkness but illuminated by the drink, just as in any bar, where the cocktail is center stage.

The Expression 

While the title suggests the apple is about to be staged amongst other fruit for a still life painting, the focus on the apple encourages a biblical reference. Is gloved hand God? The tag on the apple reads "Nephilim's Weaver", which is a reference to Genesis. Nephilim are the offspring of fallen angels and man, and they are depicted as giants.
