Tales of Continents Origin




More than 4.6 billion years ago, the world was a burning gas ball, spinning through space. The earth cooled, the superheated gases held by gravity to form the atmosphere.

Water vapour collected in air, the cloud began to form. Then it began to pour with rain, causing early ocean.




About 250 million years ago, long after the earth had created, all the continents had joined together to form a supercontinent called Pangaea (sometimes spelt Pangea). This supercontinent notion proposed by Alfred Wegener (the scientist).


This supercontinent broke up about 200-million years ago to form two enormous continents, Gondwana and Laurasia.


Now Gondwana (Southern Hemispherecomprised into Africa, South America, Australia, Antarctica and India. The Indian sub-continent lay off the east coast of Africa before it broke off and went north swiftly.

It collided with Asia, creating one of the largest range mountain- The Himalaya's.


Now Laurasia (Northern Hemisphere) would drift north and gradually split into Europe, Asia and North America.


💡 Fun fact 

According to geologist the cycle is likely still going. The continents are still on the move, drifting apart at the rate of about an inch each year.

Revealing the Timeless Beauty: Crafting a Greek Woman's Portrait

Dear Esteemed Readers, I am absolutely delighted to unveil the captivating journey behind the creation of this exquisite women's portrait. Our source of inspiration hails from the timeless elegance of a Greek woman. In the annals of Ancient Greece, the epitome of beauty lay in three quintessential elements: symmetry, proportion, and harmony. Their visages were adorned with delicate contours and cascading waves of hair, epitomizing the very essence of grace. The heritage of the Greeks unfolds as a tapestry of shared physical traits—olive-hued skin, rich brown eyes, and gracefully straight noses. Complementing these features, one often finds luxuriant tresses of dark hair, elegantly carved cheekbones, and visages bearing the hallmark of a rectangular grace. Allow me to share the very palette that brought this vision to life: A pristine canvas The vibrant embrace of oil paints, delicately thinned with linseed oil A carefully curated array of paintbrushes The final touch of metallic pa...

Follow me on  Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | Youtube .  These are the artists who are recognised in your society. The ones who are “making it”. Some artists turn to online sales to get aside from having to talk to people. They are shy or don't know how to talk about their art.  Unfortunately, that's the reason they won’t be successful online either.  You can’t build a website, sneak behind the pretty pictures, and wait for the sales to move in.

We know you are talented but let's don't forget there are many talented people out there. So, how can you stand out from the crowd? Well, l...
