A walk through the modern and contemporary collections of the National Museum of Fine Arts (Cuban Art). [ENG] [ESP] by @ibarra95

You have given us a spectacular tour of this legaro of Cuban art in great detail. In principle the place is spectacular both in its external façade and inside with its garden and fountain.
Good lighting is a must for this type of exhibition and I can see it here, plus all the rooms have very interesting pieces. The ones that have caught my attention the most are the ones that mix cubism, geometric and abstract pieces, I love so much colour, although colonial art is not far behind. All styles have their own interesting point.
I was fascinated and I must emphasize it, the fine sculptures in iron and wood are beautiful and stand out and a painting with a lot of waves that catches the eye with its bright blue colours. The last part of the tour is more than fabulous in both paintings and sculpture. A marvel.

Powering up irrigation with subsidized solar panels installation at home by @steemflow

This initiative by your government is spectacular, I wish many others would do it and the planet would be cleaner and more conserved. It is also important that it is for the farmers and that they do not see their plantations fail because they cannot irrigate them or because of the high cost of electricity. The subsidy of up to 90% is a good incentive and, like you, I hope they will bring it to ordinary citizens, to their homes and reduce costs.
I am very happy that you and your family have been able to access this benefit, it is a very important improvement for the economy and the plantations.

𝑫𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝑮𝒆𝒕 𝑻𝒐𝒐 𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 by @amiegeoffrey

In one of the #HHHLive shows, I remember I decided to change the welcoming message to something similar to today's topic... I said to people: "Welcome to the show! Make yourself UNCOMFORTABLE!" 😃
I'm not a very courageous person, but throughout my life I did push myself outside my comfort zone many times... On the other side, people think that if you are doing that more and more, it's easier to "leave the zone", but it's not like that... As I get older, I create new comfortable zones, which are harder and harder to leave...
And, it's so easy to "get lost" in comfortable... That sofa is so soft, the new sweater is so cozy, and that new TV show is awesome... So comfy... 😂
So, get yourself uncomfortable and keep growing!!

Digital drawing: love for reading [Esp-Eng] by @jemima1996

I suck at drawing big time... I remember in elementary school, my biggest struggle wasn't math or physics, but art and drawing! 😃 I suppose because of that, I appreciate it a lot when I see someone doing a great job, like you, with this drawing... 😍
Maybe if I would learn that "skeleton" technique, I wouldn't be so bad at drawing? hehehe 😃

Hive Open Mic Week #300 "Morenita del Caribe" 🔥 by @nazatpt

I'm impressed with your song. I appreciate the effort you've made to share your voice with the world through Hive Open Mic Week 300. Let me tell you, you're doing a great job, bro! The lyrics are excellent, and I'm happy to know that it's possible to create a track like this for our original songs; I might just copy you, haha! Sending you a hug, my brother. A true musician does everything to stand out, and that's clear in this joyful song you're sharing today.

Hive Open Mic Week 300 - Hay Libertad - (There Is Freedom) Original Song [Esp-Eng] by @ljfenix

This song holds a lot of meaning for Venezuelans, especially now. You two convey a feeling that we all carry inside, and it's a good omen to hear it this particular week, as these feelings of freedom have coincided with the 300th week of Hive Open Mic. Thank you for being here and for doing such an impeccable job. It's wonderful to see exemplary musicians making music together, and you both transmit your love to the audience when you come together to record.
