This is one of my favorite trends: bold, nature-inspired images on clothing. The trend can be now seen at major retailers and shops – but obviously – some are cooler than others.

Happy Monday all!

I see an art trend happening. I’ve spotted several artists using this technique – which I’ve called “painting over” (if you know the actual name let me know) – where they take an existing piece of art – usually a photograph or another painting – and they create something new on it; big colourful brush strokes, smeared faces, paint drippings, etc.

This trend could be some type of refurbished art technique, no? (not that there’s anything wrong with the original piece) – if you think of it this is happening everywhere right now, from fashion (altered vintage items) to interior design (scandinavian reclaimed wood).

I am personally enjoying this trend for sure – what about you? Do you like this type of art? What’s your stance?
