To help promote and improve the artistic community here on Steemit I am doing a weekly curation! Most of the artists I have chosen are still minnows and are waiting to be discovered and others that I will feature have just plain impressed me! All of these posts will be voted on by me and also our curation account msp-curation :)
My first find this week is from @matteopaints (Matthew Holden Bates) who is an oil painter and in this post he talks a bit about his inspiration for painting and we get to see a few of his beautiful oil paintings! This orchid is particularly stunning!

Next is this pice by @megy.fine.arts called ''Chummer Cleaner'', at a first glance this art is very cryptic and I highly suggest you click through and read the description, Megy has a wonderful imagination!

I couldn't resist including this digital art by @yomismosoy titled JULIA AND I IN A FANTASYSCAPE that he made for an entry to my art explosion contest! If you look closely you will see my face in there hanging out with a smoking caterpillar :D

@katharsisdrill made this crazy cool digital collage/painting Thii dream of Draydeem which has a wonderful humour and surrealness:

Last up is @nyarlathotep with this black and white art DaOLoTH that was inspired by the book The Render of the Veils by Ramsey Campbell, once again I suggest reading the description on this one:
