This artwork by Yota Tasaki depicts a lush, futuristic utopia where towering trees and floating islands intertwine with sleek, advanced architecture. Waterfalls cascade into misty valleys, and a radiant city rises at the center, blending technology and nature in perfect harmony. The scene feels dreamy and otherworldly, like a vision of a sustainable, high-tech paradise.

This atmospheric artwork depicts a mysterious, abandoned city reclaimed by nature. A solitary figure stands in a small boat on an emerald-green pool of water, surrounded by moss-covered ruins and lush vegetation. Dominating the scene is a colossal stone statue or sculpture partially covered in vegetation, its humanoid form with a distinctive round head rising eerily from the overgrowth. The composition is shrouded in misty light that filters through the scene, creating a moody, dreamlike quality with dramatic contrast between shadows and illuminated areas.
The image evokes themes of lost civilization, the inevitable reclamation of human structures by nature, and the smallness of humanity against monumental remains of the past. The aesthetic combines elements of fantasy art with post-apocalyptic imagery, suggesting an ancient or forgotten world where nature and massive architectural remnants create a hauntingly beautiful landscape.
Week highlights: @gimpofficial.bsky.social team started planning v3.2 development, new releases of Inkscape, jc303, Qtractor, and KnobKraft-orm

This artwork depicts a majestic, towering mountain with sharp peaks, surrounded by mist and dramatic cloud formations. At the mountain's base, a castle or fortress is nestled within the landscape, illuminated by warm sunlight. A river flows through the foreground, winding through lush greenery and rocky outcrops.
The painting has a fantasy or dreamlike quality, reminiscent of classic fantasy landscapes. The lighting and atmosphere suggest a dramatic, almost mystical setting, with a strong contrast between the bright, sunlit areas and the darker, shadowed regions. The brushstrokes and soft textures give the piece a painterly, semi-realistic style with an emphasis on mood and grandeur.
Week highlights: new releases of @gimpofficial.bsky.social, PhotoGIMP, Shotcut, Flowblade, and Calf LV2 plugins

This digital painting presents a mystical forest scene with a glowing golden light piercing through the dense canopy. The artwork contrasts dark, shadowy trees in the foreground with a warm, ethereal radiance in the background. A majestic stag, standing atop a fallen log, is bathed in the light, giving it a divine or mythical presence.
The composition draws the viewerโs eye toward the stag, which serves as the focal point, surrounded by lush vegetation and a gently flowing stream. The interplay of darkness and light enhances the sense of mystery and depth. The color palette primarily consists of deep greens, blacks, and warm golden hues, creating an enchanting and almost dreamlike atmosphere.
Week highlights: new releases of @gimpofficial.bsky.social, @blender3d.bsky.social, PDF4QT, libwacom, and LosslessCut
