Small still life from times of isolation. I love painting fresh flowers from the garden. Those here are some twigs of pink baby rose in a vintage ceramic vase. Vase has that old green color of glaze that reflects the colors so beautifully. And the shade of pink roses is, similarly, the one almost pale, easily bending into color scale of its surrounding. Yet this time the reflection was more of an internal sort of, I painted the reflections and shades in flowers in colors of my optimism, at the time hoping the quarantine was ending soon. Although, sadly enough, we are still in pandemics, this small still life reminds me of the fact, that better times are coming, inevitably. And there is no need for a big canvas to express this hope, this small format will do it, for it comes from the bottom of my heart……
