I never knew of a secret treasure my family supposedly had. Looking up at the painting, I still cannot understand what all the fuss is about. The painting is the second in the series of oil paintings called the guild of the guardians. It features three old men sitting around a table, smoking cigars.

She followed the chain and reached a big wall. The wall was a bit weird. There were paintings all around. Shama observed each and every painting. The paintings were grouped.

In another painting there was a girl crying desperately as she tried to grab a hand which belonged to….Who knows…Another painting had a lonely girl with a cake in her hand as she smiled at herself in the mirror. Another painting had a war scene with blood all around.

“I mean… second time in two days. Same city, same me. The odds are statistically suspicious.” A muscle ticked in his jaw. “It’s a small island.” “New York? Small?” I laughed. “You’re joking.” He didn’t smile, but something in his eyes softened. Just a fraction. I tilted my head toward the paintings. “What do you think of these?” He glanced at the canvases like he was seeing them for the first time. “They’re loud.” “Loud,” I repeated, grinning. “That’s a good word for it. I think they’re screaming.”

After the questioning session, his parents started discussing something with her parents which left just Sindhu and Gautham, who just happen to be viewing the paintings in the living room with curiosity. It was a giant painting of a phoenix. "Before you can ask... I did paint that one" Sindhu told him in a low voice leaning towards him. He was startled at first but after turning towards her briefly he once again gave his attention to the Phoenix. She must say she was quite proud of that piece.

Instead of arguing, I approached the stand and unveiled what lay beneath the cloth—a painting. The three wolves' reactions were immediate and distinct. My father's eyes narrowed in assessment, Derek's widened in appreciation, and Bernard simply looked confused. The painting was extraordinary—a Fenrir-like creature with massive wings, executed in traditional Northern Territory ink style. The beast seemed to leap from the canvas, its green-gold eyes burning with life and power.

If anyone saw me, they would think I was having a seizure. “Okay Kalama back to unpacking.” I chide myself. Sighing, I went back to the boxes. I had about 3 more boxes to unpack and add the pieces and painting to the catalogue. Opening the first box, I took out a painting with a beautiful gilded frame with heavy ornaments. Turning the painting over, I saw a majestic Phoenix surrounded by fire, gorgeous flames engulfing the creature, like they were embracing it. The flames seemed to dance before my eyes.

I will give her the world. Jin attended an exclusive exhibit at a hotel near Julianne’s office. One particular painting caught his eye. The background was an abstract of different colors of blue, purple, black, yellow and red. The center was a face of a man. He had a devilish look on his face. His brown hair fell over his red eyes. He had fangs and though he looked evil, he also looked quite handsome. As Jin stared at it longer, he could make out the wings behind the man in the painting, making him look like fallen angel. Jin must admit, the artist had some skill. “Do you like it?” he heard a female voice ask behind him.

Lina admired the paintings on Zuko's phone, particularly captivated by the firefly painting's vibrant colors and bold brushstrokes. She expressed her fascination, wishing she could see the artwork in person. Zuko chuckled knowingly. Although Zuko's grandmother was not a renowned artist, she had made a name for herself within artistic circles. Her painting, The Fireflies' Light, had fetched a staggering $30,000,000 at an auction in Centrolis over two decades ago.
