red rose

 

I wanted the rose to be dark and mysterious.  I don't know if I managed it but I liked the result anyway.

Away from the others

18 x 24 cm (7.2" x 9.5")

It's the how we feel some times, away and lonely, alienated from others, inside but also independent and complete. Other times good and other times not so good. It was like my feelings yesterday I paint it, very simple but I liked it exactly this way.

Yellow flower

Just shiny and bright. We are still in spring and I found out that I love flowers, especially the flowers that brighten the place around them. I suppose I need this glare.

The first sprout

20 x 25 cm (8" x 10")

It's the first sprout that starts everything. Every beginning with its difficulty at start, the struggle and the force, the pain and the awe of the new way of seeing. Hesitatingly and magnifically, every next step is smoother and easier.

Alone in the dark

Standing alone in the dark. I think it's waiting for something - to fall or to be eaten maybe.

Lady Bug

25 x 35 cm (10" x 14")

oil on canvas panel

Yes, it's spring and the week before I wanted to find something suitable to celebrate. This lady is so wise living a simple life in harmony with nature. I am a bit jealous.

Peace and quiet

25 x 35 cm (10" x 14")

oil on canvas panel

I painted it on February, a day I was struggling for some peace and quiet. I was much better afterwards, so here it is.

A red zerbera in a green background - this small painting is being completely painted around, so it doesn't need a frame. The original looks much better than the photo.
