The Work of Loribelle Spirovski


With a number of high-profile awards and exhibitions, Loribelle Spirovski has shown herself as an artist to look out for. At times, her paintings look no different from a photograph, while others delve into the surreal. Sometimes there are abstract, surrealist and realistic qualities all within one portrait.

Born in Manila to a Filipino mother and a Yugoslav father, Loribelle migrated to Sydney and
earned a degree in Art Education from the College of Fine Arts at the University of New South Wales. But when she realized that teaching wasn't for her, she began to paint. Social media played a vital role in carving her creative niche and helped her a lot in becoming a notable young artist on the international scene.


She often blends traditional methods with more experimental techniques. However, she admits that it is her childhood in the Philippines that has had the biggest impact on her art. Her debut solo exhibition in London at HOFA Gallery is nearing its close, but she has an upcoming Portraiture 2020 group show at Arcadia Contemporary in Los Angeles from January 11-30, as well as the LA Art Show early next year.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Details from lucid dreams

If Audrey Stomme s' paintings came alive and transformed into celebrities, they would be Alicia Vikander or Cara Delevingne — confident, perky, and unabashedly luxe. The Minnesota-based artist has a knack for blending ink and acrylic paint in striking combinations to create abstract human forms with an exciting curiosity surging through them. Her pieces brim with courage and exhibit the inherent freedom of her subconscious. Sometimes I'm not sure what I'm looking at, but it still fascinates me.

This jellyfish can age backwards and regenerate body parts

Moon jellies have amazing superpowers. They have the ability to regenerate lost body parts - just like Deadpool, create clones of themselves - just like Multiple Man and, recent research has revealed, they can age backwards - just like Benjamin Button. The discovery was made by Jinru He, a graduate student in marine biology at China's Xiamen University. According to National Geographic , Jinru collected a baby male moon jellyfish from the ocean and raised it to a full grown adult. When it died, he transferred the corpse into a new tank, and noticed a sea anemone-like polyp on the specimen three months later. Scientists believe that the discovery could give us better insight into cancer cures.
