Black and White

Leah's inspiration in March is 'black and white'. I decided to follow her inspiration. I painted for the first time human body in acrylics. It was new and challenging  process for me but I enjoyed it very much. It was a process of creating and learning about human body at the same time. I also discovered how human body regardless of age and shape is beautiful and perfect in itself. How much is able to tell about us and our lives. How much fragile, delicate and complicated it is. I enjoyed having my hands dirty with paint again. During painting I was also thinking how much we and our lives are complicated and developed. Nothing is just black and white. There are also shades, combinations, possibilities, circumstances, different colours and choices. There is so much beauty in us and around us. Look in itself and around you and try to see it. We all are beautiful. Thank you Leah for inspiring me.

  6. Aga, your work is always wonderful. I love how you are always learning and thinking and sharing your thoughts and art with us. I agree with you - things are never black and white. There are always choices for all of us.
