…. flying clown and half a mermaid …..

does the title make you curious? yes?? good ! that was my intention. well now… if you scroll down to my previous post you will see the WIP .. of the clown. the title of the painting however is “A Matter of Life”. i posted a text to go with it… to explain a little… give you some background where the muse took me this time. i also got a new WIP to add…….. but first things first

A Matter of Life

A Matter of Life

mixed media on watercolour paper – acrylics, acrylic ink, acrylic marker, graphite pencil

24 x 32cm – 9,4 x 12,6 in

Every morning is a new matter of life. Sometimes i wear a mask, masking my true feelings, hiding behind a laughing face, but not quite achieving to keep up the smile. A hand touches my head, giving me Blessings, the wind blows away the mask, bringing a fresh wind into the Matter of Life, the fish sing a happy tune and the sun smiles to herself, watching this everyday happening. Returning joy and happiness to this Matter of Life

…….. and now…. the WIP… no title yet. the bird and flower want my attention. well they will get it tomorrow.. too late now 🙂

MARGUERITE – WIP

well that is her……. the WIP. her name is MARGUERITE…….. that is all i know about her so far. i will see where the muse will take me tomorrow.

and now…….. good night my friends 🙂

hi there, it’s me again… with some ECHOES FROM THE PAST

… this is actually the title of my new piece of art….. ECHOES FROM THE PAST… which would also mean.. memories. what memories do i have from my past…… what memories do you have from your past?? is it all good, better and best ? or bad, worse… worst ? to me it is a bit of both. there are good memories… wonderful ones in fact…… others are not so nice….. but then what to do… shrug your shoulders and move on. the past is the past and cannot be undone.. it is part of US… our personal history…. or life… it has formed us…. made us into what we are today…… that’s just life isn’t it………..

ECHOES FROM THE PAST

Pattern of a Life

what more can i say.. this is me. with energy circles….. jumping up and down… playing snakes and ladders, letting my inner child take over… be creative, paint….. draw…… LIVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAAAAAAAAAAA !!! mais oui, c’est moi… it is me.. there are tears, there is sunshine… there are bubbly moments, stern moments…. ladders to climb up.. ladders to climb down.. there are caves and shady places.. there is sunlight and brightness… this is the way to live. let your inner child live, don’t forget that child inside of you…. give it space to grow, to be creative, have fun… and life will be so much easier to live :))

my two weeks of radio therapy are over…. i feel a bit less tired… though those strong pain meds still make me a bit drowsy.. but slowly i am getting used to them and soon i will be able to drive again. met my new physiotherapist today and i just know we will get along just fine..

meanwhile…. my inner child is having a ball……. because we are about to start on a new painting…. yayyyyyyyy to that 🙂

darn it all… i did it again………

i wrote my blog…. wanted to preview it……. DID preview it….. went back.. and lost the whole entry. do i hear laughter out there ?? NO… it is NOT FUNNY……….. well….. not really. it annoys me.. just a bit… and yes it is a bit funny too.. i have to admit 😀 so…. here we go….. once again below sea level.. my muse is dipping and diving….. going here and there… in the water ….. out of it…. into the desert ? who knows.. we shall see. working on two paintings right now….. first the fishy one……..

and then………. there is this one

two totally different paintings. yes……. no ?? no….. not really. compare them… the shapes, forms… energy coming from it…… is the one below the abstraction of the one above? could be… yes… no ? let me know what you think 🙂
and yes….. i will finally start creating a homepage here…. it IS high time… i have to admit 🙂

.. the couple … my parents?? nope.. def not… must be another couple…

ey friends……. it is a bummer when you cannot sit properly…. those darn metastases are in my hips… my thigh .. my pelvic bones… so.. it hurts to sit… to walk……. but i am getting a wheelchair soon so.. that will take care of going outdoor-matters… looking forward to that… when i can move around outside again.. you bet i will have my camera ready by then :)) i also just purchased a memory-foam-gel-cushion.. thanks to that i hope that sitting will be more comfortable again 🙂

so.. what’s that all got to do with my painting ?`? nothing…….. i guess… or do you see a connection ?? ok.. so.. this is my latest painting….. The Couple – Das Paar…… who is who?? no idea… do you ??

The Couple – Das Paar

this painting is 29.5 x 21 centimeters – 11.4 x 8.2 inches
acrylics and acrylic markers
painted on cardboard

… out from the deep… into the storm….

i know.. the title sounds a bit ominous. but it actually is a good thing………… cause this morning i did a very quick, “warm-up” exercise in my studio. … just out of the blue, totally spontaneous without.. thinking… and then this painting happened….. and a warm up exercise, turned into something very deep and meaningful… i called it…….. DANCING IN THE EYE OF THE STORM …… the idea behind it………. often in our lives with are confronted with stormy situations… situations that are scarey, seemingly overwhelming….not solvable… but they are. we should not try and fight the storm.. but listen to it… hear its rhythm.. its message….. and dance along with it. happy dancing 🙂

DANCINT IN THE EYE OF THE STORM

ok i have been quiet.. once again.. forgive me please 🙂 been running around a lot and unfortunately this takes its toll on me… i feel washed out and exhausted … my energy levels heading towards “very low”… however.. art keeps me awake.. energizes me even… well we all know, that art heals ! so art gives me all the good energy i need.. but …. writing something in my blog is a different story … …… anyway.. got nothing planned til next tuesday so i can rest…… and paint… and rest some more….. paint some more.. etc etc 🙂

CIRCUS

…. i like to doodle – as most of you know…. my doodling has “developed”… to the extent that i now have papers all over the flat and pens… or fine liners – as in this case – and when watching TV or netflix.. i just doodle on the side… scribble, scrabble, let the pen take over… not thinking what i am doing.. concentrating on the tv.. so these drawings come from realy realy deep inside of me… this one here…… i uploaded it yesterday and today already it is gone… sold to a collector in switzerland….. YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY to that 🙂 my CIRCUS already has found a new home 🙂
namaste my friends !!!

… so it looks… like this is not a one-time thing ….

… my love to create stories within stories seems to be the style i like best… no comments from my side… let the viewer of my art find her or his story.. her/his component of my art that resonates within that person… and create their own story from it. so here is another one… BIRD AND APPLETREE it is called… another story… with more story elements integrated into it. it is a mixed media drawing on paper … 32 x 24 cm big… or make that 12.5 x 9.4 inches — and yes of course it is also for sale. for more info please contact me. this piece of art is also available in my various online stores.. such as mimulux.pixels.com … or RedBubble .. for more info just check out my “Buy my Art” page — just click on the link …
i am already working on a new story within a story… ….. ♥ ♥ ♥ — have a great week all !

BIRD AND APPLE TREE

BI

that yellow background with clear gesso and acrylic ink …

that particular backround i mentioned in my last blog post… remember? the muse was nudging me along .. in that direction… of course… i could not resist my muse and started to work on that background… just went with the flow.. and this little drawing evolved.. it is really VERY mixed media.. mucholy so… starting with the background for which i used clear gesso… and then yellow and a bit of red acrylic ink…… and THEN some titan white to top it off… oh i love to create backgrounds… is it noticeable ?? anyway… that particluar background was ready for more… and it started with the house at the bottom… i used an ordinary pencil for that…. then i added ballpoin pen… and THEN i added black pastel pencil….. and thus my little drawing happened… and its title is.. Haus der Träume / House of Dreams… hope you enjoy it 🙂 love and light to all !
