Hive Art Gallery Bests #2

Thank you for casting your votes! Here are the results after including the voting participation bonus:

🥇 1st place: @ezunjoshy A Graphite Sketch - 24pts - prize: 40% of the post's earnings

The artist has skillfully used shading and texture to capture the depth of the man's facial features and clothing, giving the portrait a realistic and expressive look.

The artist mentioned that he went on a "graphite rampage" and created several pieces but hadn't shared them due to a busy schedule. While waiting for colleagues, he decided to edit and post this drawing instead of wasting time on his device. He was glad to have used that time creatively.

🥈 2nd place: @romanie PAINT SMUDGE TURNS INTO A BIRD SPIRIT - 8 pts - prize: 20% of the post's earnings

This painting depicts a surreal, spirit-like bird emerging from a swirling mass of organic textures and colors. The bird's eye is strikingly human-like, adding to the mystical and dreamlike atmosphere. The background blends deep reds and oranges with a soft green landscape, creating a contrast between earth and sky.

The artist mentioned that this piece started as a simple color smudge with acrylic on wood. It developed quickly, and they worked on it during free time at work. From the beginning, they felt that a fantasy spirit bird was meant to appear in the painting, shaping its final form.

🥉 3rd place: @nave7 Sunset by the lake - 7 pts - prize: 20% of the post's earnings

This is a peaceful sunset scene over a lake, with warm hues of orange, pink, and purple blending together in the sky and reflecting on the calm water. A small wooden boat floats gently on the lake, while the silhouette of trees adds to the serenity. Two birds soar above, enhancing the natural beauty of the moment.
The artist created a tranquil scene, blending soft sunset colors with nature elements like a boat, trees, and flying birds, capturing the peacefulness of the moment.
