Spray painting flowers with HF issue 47 artist Logan Hicks.
From Hicks:
“The piece, titled “A vase of Flowers” was originally painted by Margareta Haverman in 1716. Only two of her works survive today. She studied under Jan Van Huysum, but when she was admitted into the French Royal Academy in Paris, he turned on her. Jan Van Huysum felt that her success would lower his prices, so he told the academy that the work she submitted for admission to the academy were actually copies of his paintings. She was thrown out of the academy and disgraced. Her reputation was forever tarnished.
I painted this piece to bring notice to her and to celebrate those who are forgotten because of the injured egos of mentors.”

While their bright colors may call you closer, the paintings of Jean Luc Iradukunda are fierce, visceral, and stand as a commentary on human disfigurement and the assimilation of refugees like the artist; who is a Rwandan migrant living in South Africa. See more of the artist’s work at @bendergallery in North Carolina.

Installation artist Laurie Shapiro gives us hope that we can have white walls and an immersive studio at the same time.

You’d think that a transparent mask would be kind of pointless, but the wearable wire sculptures of Giacomo Bevanati create a unique effect.
Thanks to Tom Hall for the heads up!

Renée Tay transforms vintage toys into sculptures that appear to be colonial porcelain, creating a mutated nostalgic hybrid as a result.
“Salvaging forgotten treasures such as vintage toys, dolls, figurines, and teapots, Tay meticulously arranges them into intricate compositions using Apoxie Sculpt. She then applies layers of gesso, Valspar, and other materials, culminating in a meticulous process of aging and sealing with a high gloss clear coat, ultimately achieving an enchanting illusion reminiscent of porcelain sculpture”.
Tay’s work is currently featured in @strangerfactory’s annual “Toymakers of Planet Earth” group exhibition on display through the end of April.

Just appreciating how Dan Witz approaches figurative work from unlikely angles today, especially the top views of these cut out oil paintings on aluminum.
Have a nice day people. Scratch that. Have an extra nice day. Get out there and nice it on up to the max, until people are suspicious of you.
