True art should provoke emotion and thought; kolaboy's The Dying Poet does just that. The acrylic painting which depicts two young androgens' lighthearted reaction to a polyp-like mass in a specimen jar is mentally, visually, and spiritually stirring. Subtle colors highlight almost reverent imagery. This dark look into an alternative reality should not be missed. (by kidd) (Selected by $mikeylove)

The contrast of the simple room and the face in the jar is so.. compelling, it makes me study the piece again and again looking for connections. The varied expressions on the girls' faces, scorn and disbelief, are so indifferent of the figure in the jar and the cards convey so much subjective meaning. Beautiful. :heart:
