Abstract artwork featuring a central figure with a black silhouette and a textured blue basket-like body, surrounded by various elements including a bird, droplets, and a mirrored black profile at the bottom. The background is white with faint sketches and geometric shapes in pink and black. The piece includes signatures and is numbered at the bottom.
A colorful and eclectic artwork featuring a collage of different elements: the upper left corner shows a person's profile adorned with yellow flowers, the upper right corner includes three people standing together, the bottom left depicts a sketched figure with water flowing from the mouth, and the bottom right contains an array of vibrant abstract shapes and scribbles. The piece is signed by the artists.
A colorful and eclectic artwork divided into four quadrants, each with a distinct style and theme. The top left quadrant features a partial, abstract portrait of a person with their hand to their mouth, rendered in a painterly style with visible brush strokes. The top right quadrant is densely packed with vibrant, cartoonish figures resembling SpongeBob SquarePants characters in a chaotic, overlapping arrangement. The bottom left quadrant shows a more minimalist, sketch-like design with musical notes and abstract forms suggesting movement or sound. The bottom right quadrant displays a detailed, symmetrical illustration resembling an ornate architectural detail or mandala, with warm tones and intricate patterns. The piece is numbered and signed by the artists at the bottom.
