This version has no border and it will be share with the groups. I made this artwork for the new default award to one of my groups.
In the midst of the COVID19 lockdown (2019), the globally acclaimed muralist ROA finished this masterpiece on the façade of the GUM (Ghent University Museum).
This new Science Museum is located in the heart of the city of Ghent, ROA’s place of birth, and an important part of the natural history collections are hidden in the depositories underneath the museum. Therefore, ROA was able to find his source of inspiration literally just a few metres from his artwork.
You see a magnificent pile of skeletons, including that of an elephant, a rhinoceros, a grizzly bear and an okapi.
This work of art, which is spread out over about 290 m2 of museum wall.
ROA is known for his impressive black-and-white wall paintings featuring animals, with or without skin, fur or hair.
He creates vibrant, detailed murals, that bring wildlife back into the heart of the city. With his work he points out the disappearance of the habitat of animals in places where man has settled. He invites us to take a closer look at the natural world we are all a part of.
His work can be seen all over the world and he is counted among the very best contemporary street artists.
I also found a video (by Ranto) of the making of this great mural.
And .ilona. found another video about ROA.
Enjoy ;-))

Can't color inside the lines

I'm still working on my masterpiece
The Baptistery of Pisa has incredible acoustics inside thanks to its cover, formed by a system of double domes. Every 30 minutes during visiting hours, employees make some short vocal intonations (echoes) to allow everyone to hear the impressive sound effect that takes place inside the baptistery.

Beneath dramatic Swedish skies, Vadstena showcases Renaissance splendor, its timeless turrets and ancient stone walls telling tales of royal ambition and a storied past. Surrounded by verdant parkland and nestled near the tranquil shores of Lake Vättern, this masterpiece invites travelers to immerse themselves in the living history and serene beauty of Östergötland.
Your visit and presence here truly brighten my gallery. I hope this view of Vadstena Castle brought a smile or sparked a sense of wonder in your day. Your little star or kind words mean so much to me. Thank you for sharing in the beauty and magic of this place with me.
The fan vaulted ceiling of Bath Abbey in Bath, UK is an amazing example of lace in stone. This delicate looking stone lace actually provides structural stability to the Abbey. It dates to the major renovations to the Abbey (which itself dates to the 7th century) in the Victorian period of 1864 - 74 and is the work of Sir George Gilbert Scott.

“The smallest feline is a masterpiece” - Leonardo
Phoebe, 5 mo
My husband rescued Phoebe in the village, from a tree, under was sitting the dog that had been following her. He brought her home a few days after my ankle accident, when I was still in bed, unable to walk. She was small and skinny, but not scared at all, she was home from the first moment and everyone loves her very much.
My first thought was that, yes, she is the cat that will survive me.
Thank you for your visit, comments are disabled due to a constant lack of time.
A happy new week to all!
Evening view of the abandoned pier in Puerto Natales, Chile. There won't be many other, if any, blue hour uploads from Patagonia because the towns and cities are not architectural masterpieces, even this one was a challenge because of the wind and my state of inebriation.
Happy Sunday to everyone.
Women in the world are often told that they need to look a certain way and smile as much as possible to look pretty but I believe the true masterpiece is the woman within and her depth of emotions and thoughts is worth celebrating.

Once in a while during the winter months, we are blessed with works of art. Sculpted and created by nature, they are truly a gift.
Light fluffy snow with no wind is the artist. It doesn't last long however, because after the front moves through comes the wind.

The red sandstone formations, the twisted pine trees, and the desert shrubs all work in concert to form a perfect masterpiece of nature. Even the dead trees find their way onto Ma Nature's canvas--they accent the landscape like costume jewelry on an evening gown.
