“I don’t reproach the spring
for starting up again.
I can’t blame it
for doing what it must
year after year.
I know that my grief
will not stop the green.”
― Wisława Szymborska, View with a Grain of Sand: Selected Poems

Weary of all who come with words, words but no language
I make my way to the snow-covered island.
The untamed has no words.
The unwritten pages spread out on every side!
I come upon the tracks of deer in the snow.
Language but no words.
Tomas Tranströmer: From March 1979

There are two things I like doing the most: travelling new places, meeting friends, and painting in my studio. Unfortunately I like painting much more. Unfortunately, as it is quite harder and sometimes people don’t get I just need that loneliness in my studio. Yet, it is right in the studio, painting, when I can travel the most beautiful landscapes across the space and time. Like painting this canvas in the yellow, red and blue: still remember getting a set of three oil crayons from Talens, as about 5 years old girl: yellow, turquoise and red. Pure happiness holding these three colors in my hand as a kid has remained in my heart till today and painting this canvas has brought back all these memories……

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……
