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.

Weirdly Charming

If you’re a fan of art that makes you do a double-take, you need to check out  Richard Brener . Based in the UK, Richard is an internationally collected artist who works primarily with ink, fineliners, and gouache. When you first see his pieces, they actually look pretty playful. Then you realize the entire canvas is packed with thousands of tiny, ghost-like shapes he calls "champs." They’re all squeezed together like commuters on a rush-hour train, and the level of detail is honestly mind-blowing. Richard spends hundreds of hours drawing these little guys over and over. It’s obsessive, very intentional, and a little bit wild. The cool part is that the longer you stare, the more the vibe shifts. Check out more photos below:

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.
