Hello beautiful souls.
Leah's inspiring theme in May is 'Flowers'. There are a lot of flowers around me, especially at this time of year. I enjoy looking and admiring every day, how trees are getting greener and greener, how everything is in bloom. Not only trees and plants but people too. Spring always brings new hopes and fresh energy after winter time. It is one of the favourite times of the year for me. I am a spring baby. I also enjoy having flowers in our house. Painting them is like capturing that precise moment in time in the year. It always leaves and brings memories. When I look at my flowery paintings I always come back with memories to that time when I was painting them. I look and think ' oh yes, I remember that summer, when I was sitting in the garden' or ' oh yes, I remember these flowers, I got them from Scott. It was a beautiful spring'...and many, many more of those little moments preserved and saved on paper. There are flowers which I have never managed to paint and I regret. I also did not expect that writing about flowers would bring me so much joy, appreciation and awareness of beauty around me. Love and blessings to you all. Have a lovely and creative week.

ReplyDeleteHi Aga,
ReplyDeleteForgotten memories rekindled through painted treasures, luv this!
I always say I luv all the seasons but Spring and autumn are probably my favourites and I too was born in the month of March.
I absolutely luv the tulips with their amazing colour tones of purple and red, they just speak life. Lovely, lovely work! Thanks for sharing.
