An uneasy one?

I draw and paint to express my feelings. Sometimes also hard, difficult feelings from the past. Or things i notice, what's going on in the world. I do not create to make beautiful images. I create to tell a story. Sometimes the story is beautiful, sometimes harsh or both sweet and dark at the same time. Is that possible? I think so. There's also a form of beauty in dark stories. I can imagine that the images from my 'Is that blood on the floor?' series can cause un uneasy feeling. That's not my goal btw, but i'm aware of it. I will not explain what it's about, i think everybody can make his own story. But it's about women and these women are one way or another strong women, not victims.

The beginning of

A rough beginning of a painting i started awhile ago. I wanna paint this on a large canvas........

Spring feelings

Yesterday i had another good mail day because i received a lovely package from Yvette in return for my Blue lady card. The package holds a nice felt purse in beautiful spring colours, my favourites: purple, a little bit orange, and the inside a dark purper red. I'll use this beauty for special little treasures like expensive markers, or special buttons. There is also two tiny, little mirrors on the purse, like sparkling eyes. Also i find a black felt bracelet with some purple, yellow and green in it and a subtle glittering blue thread, which i love a lot. I can wear it around my arm as a bracelet or i attach it on my purse like a special decoration.
Yvette, sweetheart, thank you for bringing this lovely, soft and nice smelling spring feelings to me. xoxo

Hard

Catherine est mort

When i was in France last year, drawing, listening to the French local radio, there was a man telling something about Catherine. Catherine est mort. The girl has died and he was telling her story. I didn't understand it all, but recognized some words. While listening to the voice of the man, i started to sketch and this is what came out..... Isn't it strange but beautiful to feel sorrow in your heart for a girl you never knew?

Brian Sylvester from Inkpunk artworks

Singular Ocular#2 * Brian Sylvester

Brian from Inkpunk artworks wrote about a good mail day after receiving a package from me. Today was a good mail day for me because i received a package from Brian. One that made me very happy! When opening the package i was so amazed about what's in it. First of all his painting <-Holland dreams, which he painted some years ago as a remembrance of Holland where Brian lived and worked for awhile. He thought it would be the perfect painting to trade and i couldn't agree more. I love the idea of it, that after some years the painting finds a home in the country where Brain was inspired to paint this one. When holding the painting in my hands i was touched. Such an unique feeling to hold a painting you love in your own hands. I will cherish this painting and it will have a good place on my wall. I was so surprised that Brian had send another small painting: Singular Ocular #2, with it's bright colours that reminds me of spring. Beautiful! You are so generous Brian, thank you dear friend! And if that wasn't enough the package holds more surprises, three watercoloured cards. Two were unfinished, Brian thought that my eldest son Chris and i would have fun by finishing these cards. So thoughtful, Chris was glowing with joy. We sure will finish one card, the other two were good, i wouldn't dare to draw over them. Then there were some Inkpunk printed cards and namecards. I will spread them Brian to let people know about your art. And there was also a little guirlande with Tibetan happy wish flags. Oh my am i a lucky girl or not? This made my day! Check out Brians blog where you can find his wonderful art and thoughts, it's worthwhile. His work is bright, (sometimes) humorous and with a punky feel i think. There is also his Etsy shop where you can buy his art.

Thank you Brian for making my day!

Another try

A while ago i had a post about a little movie i made from my drawing Black bird. There were little comments but i find out this had to do with the adjustments, i had injusted the video on private. I have changed this, so i hope you now can watch the video. Please let me know if you can or cannot watch the movie. It isn't a perfect movie, but i had much fun making it and appreciate your thoughts about it.
So a new try, here it is: Black birds.

Renee; a sparkling, sweet spirit

The first time i found Renee on the world wide web i was intruiged. Her bright and sparkling spirit attracted my attention. This lady who had to deal with so much sorrow and illness and loss of beloved ones in a very short time got my admiration because she stayed positive at all times. And then she shined also because of her always supportive and empathic comments on other peoples blog. Therefore i was so happy to meet her here in the blogosphere where she puts a smile upon my face with her lovely and sweet comments. Reading her blog i became aware that Renee herself was ill, more ill than i suspected at that time. Perhaps i didn't want to believe it because of her oh so lively, sparkling spirit. Her beautiful posts about her life and family, with so much love in it, made me feel close to her, feeling friendship. And i thanked her for her openess and her gift of making people feel good. About themselves and life.
Then her daughter posted on her blog that Renee was ill, suffering from much pain, that she wasn't able to post herself. All blogfriends, included me were happy with this post, Renee was so much missed and i was wondering. I wasn't the only one. After this post i was afraid fo find a new post. Praying for Renee and her lovely family, hoping for miracles.

I just opened my blog and saw in the sideline a new post on Renee's blog. I immediately knew what it was all about and felt, feel lots of sorrow. Renee is gone, she starts a new journey to the well of love and life, she's gone home. I am happy for her, she now is free of pain and reunited with her beloved ones who already were on this journey. I feel sorrow for her family, because they must be heartbroken with the loss of this caring, beautiful spirit.

Renee, you'll be missed but the love that you spread around blooms in the hearts of all people around the world that had the luck to meet you. I wish all your family and friends lots of strength and send you all my blessings and love.
