Did your parents forbid you to draw on the wallpaper? I think yes. And what did you do after that? Most likely, they drew Superman and Barbie on the last page of the school notebook, outlined desks in the classrooms of the university, and then, little by little, the desire to draw fell asleep in you like Snow White. But Charlotte Mann continues to paint. Only now she is not scolded for her drawings. Moreover, she is specially invited to decorate various vertical surfaces with her creations.
An artist from London paints on walls and shop windows. Its impressive size "canvases" are sketches from life, various household items, everything that surrounds us in everyday life.
One of the most ambitious of her works is a painting for the background, 30 meters wide, painted for the display of one from the collections of designer Peter Jensen.
And most of all I was amazed by the pictures painted on glass. They are so weightless, transparent, one might even say ghostly.
Do you want to buy a book with drawings by Charlotte Mann or just see all of her work? Visit her home page and, at least, you are guaranteed a good mood for the whole day.

The models here are half-naked dancers, the creators are amateur artists, and alcohol is a source of inspiration for both. There is a decline in morals, but the organizers insist that it is here that "alternative painting" is being created

Contemporary art from Konstantin Zolotarev. Contemporary Christian art or icon painting style
The icon painting style created for the depiction of saints and Christ is aimed at displaying a different reality. Therefore, in the icon, the portrait resemblance of a saint to a person who actually lived once is not in principle, since it reflects a transformed person who is in the upper world.
