Nourishing

Close to the nature, nourishing body, mind and heart...

We are all made of stardust.

I have been painting little cards with animals and star constellations for the last few weeks.  It was a great fun. Most of those cards are dedicated to my friends. I tried to match an animal to each person. I could feel the power and strength of those wild animals when I was drawing them and painting. After all, we are all made of stardust.

March

Spring! Spring is almost here and everything changes. There is more and more daylight every day. I spend time in the garden again. Birds sing happily. I am changing happily too. Slowly getting ready to give a birth, creating space and painting a little. I also feel so grateful to women who have been supporting me through my journey of pregnancy. Women power and support can be magical.  It is amazing how easily women unite and connect through their motherhood experience. It is also truly amazing how the birth experience bonds families together.

I am also grateful to Diane who recently bought one of my paintings, for her kind words and sharing her connection to the painting. Paintings evolve emotions, memories not only for me but also for those who I share my art with. Art works create parallel stories, connections between the artist and the viewer. It is a subtle bond which connects them both forever.

Star stories still remain the main theme of my art works at the moment. I fell in love with night sky at the Highlands.

Happy, happy spring everyone and happy March.

It looks like winter decided to stay a bit longer...

February

Hello Dear Souls.

My days are fulfilled with nesting at home and waiting for spring to come. I sew, paint, read, gather and collect baby stuff and…cook a lot. Scott decorates Elliot’s room which is going to be a star room. First snowdrops are visible in the garden. They bring hope.  Also the days with sunlight are getting longer.  

Roots

It has been nearly 3 months since we left Edinburgh. We went back there for a short visit during Christmas. When we have come back to Highlands I finally felt settled. I also felt a little longing for our new place when we were away. I was so happy to go for a walk into the woods, see familiar trees and hills which have become part of my world around me. Loneliness does not bother me anymore so much. It is good to feel our little roots growing here. My heart found new home. I suppose it is a good start of the New Year.

Wishing you much, much love and happiness in 2016.
