It’s not about your reflection, it’s about what you see beyond it. - Hannah Jessica⁠ ⁠ We welcome everyone at Paintlounge and encourage you to express yourself! ⁠ ⁠ Paint what you feel on the inside - It is cathartic, calming, and can reduce stress. ⁠ ⁠

Colour is romance and magic. It gives joy and makes life worthwhile. - Tricia Guild in Colour Deconstructed⁠ ⁠ Love the bright rainbow 🌈 colours used by @misskaylabean when she painted ”Birds on a Line”⁠

Reset your mind...⁠ ⁠ Calm your heart...⁠ ⁠ Paint your feelings...⁠ ⁠

Did you know "Absurdism" originated in the 19th-century, based on the philosophy of Soren Kierkegaard? ⁠ The absurdity of the art arises from the contradiction in the nature of two things. This poor pig is flying into the sky attached to 🎈🎈. 😂⁠ ⁠⁠ 📷/🎨 credit: Kayla⁠

Van Gogh’s most recognised work comes from a period in his life where he voluntarily committed himself to an asylum in France. ⁠ ⁠ Starry Night is a powerful testament to Van Gogh’s struggle and his talent. 🌟⁠ ⁠ Photo/art credit: @misskaylabean⁠

Art imitating life - selfie time!⁠ ⁠ ⁠

You don’t always have to play by the rules! 🎨⁠ ⁠ Sometimes you have to make your own creation - Just like one of our Paintloungers @arkhome, who mashed up “Corals below” and “Breezy Meadow”! ⁠ ⁠ Looks fantastic!⁠ ⁠ Painting by @arkhome⁠
