Watercolour summer


It is late evening when I am writting these words. I have had a very nice day. I woke up and I had known already that I would be able to rest and feel like having time for myself. Time to be, create and relax. It has been one of those days when I feel connected with universal love. When I feel loved so much. When I see my loved ones happy. When it makes me happy too and grateful for their happiness. When everything even mistakes and unexpected events are perfect and fine. When I allow myself time to create.
 I created 'Marfa Lights'. This painting is an expression of how I feel now. I painted my feelings and emotions  by using warm and cold colours. It is also my expression of summer painted in freckles on the face. I was inspired to call my painting 'Marfa Lights' by Deuter music. This music perfectly reflects how I felt when I was painting.

Also I would like to present another painting which I called 'Fishing house'. Believe me or not, it was the first time I have painted a house. I am always a bit scared of trying new things and it took me a while to decide and feel ready to paint it. It has been a watercolour summer so far after a long acrylic winter.
I noticed that somehow there is more patience, awareness and stillness in me. Maybe it is the magic of summer influence.
