The post Emily Powell’s Vivid Paintings Are Exactly What We Need In Life appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>Powell has been painting since she was seven years old when her father passed away. Using bright colors was her way of bringing joy back into the lives of her and her family. She was very young when she learned that art can bring beauty and happiness to people.
Powell has been selling her work through Instagram and her sales increased during the lockdown. People find her art to be just the thing their homes are missing during these harsh times.
The artist spends her days and creates magic in a four-story fisherman’s cottage in Brixham, England. Her studio is set on the top floor and gives her a great view of the sea and the boats, which can be noticed in her art.
Scroll down to see some of her works and follow her on Instagram for more!

]]>“I empty my mind when I’m sculpting the human faces. I might plan the pottery shape and maybe where I’d like to position the face, but I don’t start with specific character designs in mind,” Yanting told Neocha.
Through the expressions on his ceramics, the artist gives his audience a chance to draw their own conclusions about the emotions behind them. He’s fascinated by the fact that certain sculptures remind people of someone they know and associate with certain emotions based on that, so one piece can be seen in a different way by different people.
Check out his work below.

]]>The video starts with an image of a human next to one of the smaller rocks and continues by showing bigger and bigger asteroids compared to a truck, a house, and a city landscape. In a matter of seconds, we get to see the big asteroids that could easily cover the entire city like New York.
If you’re not scared by what you see in the video, remember that in 2018, the B612 Foundation told The Daily Star that “it’s 100 percent certain we’ll be hit, but we’re not 100 percent sure when.” This was the same year when Stephen Hawking wrote that asteroids are the Earth’s biggest threat in his last book Brief Answers to the Big Questions.

Photo by @mrbenfranklin1“Marzia is a creative soul that was never quite able to focus on one thing. After 25 years, she realized there was no need to pick just one thing she liked, and so she created Maì, a place where her passions can meet, and the results get out into the world,” the company’s website reads.
The shop is unfortunately closed right now, but we encourage you to follow Maì on social media to learn when they open again and enjoy wonderful ceramics in the meantime.
if you don't make it tomorrow, there will be another restock before the holidays. 
More info on what's going to be available will come in the morning, so keep an eye on IG story. Photo by @mrbenfranklin1
I will of course keep making pots too, but feels great to get someone helping with production so you guys won’t have to wait as long for restocks! 
Alice pieces will be sold for slightly less and will be marked as such on the website. Very excited to have more units to sell on each restock, from now on!

]]>“These paintings have a loose narrative of exploring this unknown territory, these liminal spaces, and the people who populate them,” the artist tells This is Colossal. “I continue to explore themes such as memory, ecological issues, pyscho-geography, identity, loss, and transformation.”
As he works on one painting, it usually gives him an idea for the next one. He says that his recent work ins influenced by Rebecca Solnit’s A Field Guide to Getting Lost. His work will be exhibited at Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, South Carolina from March 6th to 28th. You can check out his paintings below.
