'The Wind Whipped Up and They Welcomed Its Offering' - seagulls stand against an abstracted beach scene in this contemporary oil on canvas painting, 'Contemplating Progress II', by artist Diana Tremaine, whose series of paintings that depict abstracted birds and natural elements is called "Navigating Crosscurrents".

The bicoastal New York City-born artist studied and taught in both Northern and Southern California. She later moved to Montana—in a search for spiritual space and room to breathe—where she works and lives with her family, dogs and horses. 'Down by the Pier...

Circular oil and acrylic painting by artist Wenyu Zhu. This work shows a dreamy scenery. Looking from a distance, it seems like a huge coral reef in deep sea, and there are some shiny jellyfishes around it. Taking a closer look, we can see some more meaningful signs, like Oracle bones, and some animals on the coral reef. At the same time, there is also a woman with traditional Chinese clothes...
