Paintings by Erkut Terliksiz (2009)
I discovered Erkut Terliksiz on the art blog, booooooom, becoming an instant admirer. Terlitsiz uses a unique painting style to create these bold paintings, I like the illustrative qualities combined with the watercolor-like painting technique. His paintings have inspiring dimension.

Kandinsky's Der Blaue Reiter (1903)

I love Kandinsky's pallet in this painting. The unsaturated colors with the textured paint application creates a blurry, dream-like quality. It makes me feel like I'm rushing past my memories of a beautiful hillside.

Photo by Fernando Mariani (2009)
Mariani's photographs capture light in the most beautiful way, high contrast yet almost monochromatic in color, they feel very real but the best kind of real, the moments captured are the moments of clarity in everyday life.
