Okay, the title is kinda depressing, I know, but it's actually a positive! Artists today are so wildly creative. This is partially because sometimes it just doesn’t cut it anymore to paint or draw if you want your art to be noticed. People want to look at original artwork, and in response, artists today take things that are familiar and turn them into super unique art that is intriguing and fun! The kind of art that makes you think “How in the world did they come up with that?” and also "Wow, I wish I had thought of that." Looking at it motivates me to spend more time creating and working on my art. Take a look!

1. Pierre Jean-Louis’ "Black Girl Magic"

A collection of portraits in which Jean-Louis took photos of black women with natural hair and edited them to reflect galaxies and nature! His purpose was to praise black women for letting their hair go free and show them they are “goddesses and queens.”

2. Mariko Kusumoto.

Kusumoto creates sea-inspired translucent jewelry that looks like it belongs in the ocean by heating translucent material until it forms into the shape she wants.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
