There is a self-taught artist in Fürth Germany who popped up in my Instagram feed recently, and I just can’t get enough. Manja Zorn-Leibelt paints interesting rocks she finds with gorgeous, lush colors and shapes, and I want to hold each one of them in my hands. They would make an amazing gift for someone who just needed a boost.

Manja’s art makes me want to go rock hunting, dig out my paints, and get working, though I’m certain I couldn’t produce anything as beautifully balanced as her rocks. I wish I knew more about the artist, but the internet was a bit lacking, so we’ll just have to content ourselves with looking at her magnificent work!
