Hello beautiful souls. It is getting colder and colder in Scotland. Evening and nights seems to be endless and filled with blankets and candles light. I have finished my third portrait of my friend Domi. All of those portraits brought different thoughts and feelings. The last one is about those moments when we do not know which direction to take. It is also about uncertainty and waiting, about being lost and wishing to be found again, about taking time away to think and understand more, about those days when unexpectedly sorrow comes and goes, about life and its cycles. The most important is about my dear friend who represents all aspects of women nature. She is beautiful, delicate and graceful. She loves to laugh and she loves to love and be loved. She is strong and dreams about walks in the forest. Sometimes like everyone she feels lost but always finds her way back to happiness.
Thank you Domi (my Murakamia sister) and Thank you Marcin for beautiful photographs which inspired me to paint last three portraits.

ReplyDeleteStunning portrait, full of character and beauty. The monochrome look just adds to it's impact.
ReplyDeleteDear Aga! This is a really lovely portrait -- you've rendered the various shadows of her skin, and the lights and darks of her hair and her clothing, and the in-between shade of the background, so very beautifully. Much much applause for you. And a big warm hug. <3
