Where the wind takes me Mixed media on paper ( 30x30cm.) |
This is also one painting of the 'the travel' series. It has been the idea of the work "
the light in the distance beckons" that I painted after this one. I often work first small in sketchbooks or just on ' leftover' papers with no value, and when I like the result I paint it in bigger on 'serious' canvas. But often the 'translation ' doesn't work... I wonder why.... I suppose, because the spontaneity is lost, the feelings might be lost too. Sometimes it works, but just if I am flexible enough to change even the idea....

ReplyDeletegreetings Ilka!
Thank you Ilka ! I am enjoying your blog a lot by the way :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the first one too! I know how hard it is to reproduce an original piece of art in a satisfactory way.
ReplyDeletethank you Rob, maybe we should even stop trying to 'reproduce' just moving to the next picture.... :-)
