I feel less and less like posting on PF, especially considering that the summer temperatures are ending and I'd like to focus on making art, practicing different techniques, etc. But there's this thread that I wanted to make for quite a while now and so I decided to make it now in case I'll go MIA during autumn lol An art thread, of course :)
I'd like this to be a general thread about art (paintings, drawings, sculptures, comic book art, digital art, photography, you name it) and handcraft (from handmade jewelry to furniture makeovers).
If you have any favourite artists or you'll stumble upon something you think is worth sharing then it would be cool if you guys posted it here :)
I'd like to start with an oil painter Gabriela Elgaafary from Lithuania. From what I managed to gather she's a stay-at-home mom with little kids who paints whenever she has time. I'm guessing that's why her paintings aren't very big - thanks to this she can finish them faster :) She paints still life - mainly yummy stuff like fruit, sweets and sometimes her kids' toys. I'd say that her paintings are a kind of "comfort art" for me - they make me feel good :))) She seems like a nice, warm person and I think this shines through in her art. A fun fact about her - she speaks Lithuanian, English, Russian and understands Polish and Arabic.
She sells her paintings on Etsy and here are some of them:
