How interesting would it be if paintings could communicate with other paintings? Hilary Hiary, a contemporary artist, hopes that her work of art can "talk and move" and just "jump out of the square" in her studio. When asked if her paintings are more of an abstract or landscape, Hilary said she views her paintings as "universal" because she says she is never inspired from other artists. She refuses to attend art exhibitions because most of the artwork participating in those events are of today's world, and she feels they are not original. Her beliefs are quite unusual and I was drawn to how she explains what her paintings are about. She said she is a constant traveler because she enjoys that and she learns more, whether it is of general knowledge or mainly about herself and the talent she is blessed with. She said her favorite traveling place is the desert, Jodi Wadi Rum, she discovers more about herself when she is alone in a place like that.

You'll be left thinking about what she says to whether she thinks she is an artist, what she means by "universal" exactly, and where she sees herself in 10 years! It's breathtaking what she has given up to pursue such a soulful career!
Here are some of the artist's paintings, enjoy!
All of these paintings make me feel relaxed and refreshed. I mean the burst of the bubbles in the first, the slow movements and softness in the second, and the mesmerizing in all three paintings make me feel that way. What I most admire about these paintings is that you don't really have to plan it out. I feel like the artist, Joanna Dur, decided to paint whatever came to her mind at the time, which is how I'm most of the time. But it's not really that simple because, even if they are abstract, you want to make them as real as possible. That's how I'm anyway because I dwell on everything so much, but I enjoy that. And I enjoy abstract art. What do you feel about these paintings?
. What do you feel about this? What do you think it looks like if you compare it to nature? Let me enlighten you on what I think, or share my perspective. I feel like the texture and the lines take on a look of wood, but actually it's a piece of muscle tissue, and when i think of wood and compare it to nature, I think of tree bark. So, I've decided to collect such pictures of living organism's tissues to create a nature like background, except with anatomical base, for my mosaic. These are some other, similar tissues I am collecting:
