When most people pass by a construction site, they don’t give the scene a second thought and quickly go on with their day, but for artist Sara Willadsen, these sites are beautiful scenes that bring new life to areas. In her painting, “Rebuilding,” Willadsen depicts the rebuilding of an old home, showcasing the different layers that go into construction while highlighting the intricate relationship that exists between the different stages of the building process. The painting starts off with a sketch of the home, on top of that is the beginning of a wooden frame, and on top of that is an image of cranes lifting more beams up to create the final product.

Art as we know it has shifted continuously since the beginning of  history. The art world has blended several different subcultures, filling creative voids and leaving no subjects left untouched. Twin artists Kelby and Kelvin Vera know this all too well, and work hard to create a lapse within the art they create. The twins combine traditional art with other art forms such as pop culture, cartoons, anime, politics and more to create eye-catching and thought-provoking art that is blowing up in today’s current scenes.

You’re scrolling on Instagram, when a reel of an artist pops up on your screen. The video showcases a bright acrylic and aerosol painting on a large canvas with a monkey wearing the ceremonial uniform for the Irish Guards (Prince William of the English Royal Family tends to wear this uniform). The uniform is red and decorated with gold shoulder pads with frills and a blue sash covered in medals. There’s a small crown floating off-center above his head and he’s wearing white gloves. The painting is called “Sir F**k You” and is one of the first pieces created by St. Louis Pop Artist, Corry Rogers.
