Silence

I haven't been writing for almost 2 years. There are so money things happened in my life the last few years that I couldn't really catch the reality anymore.
Lost one of the closest human beings that I had during my short life.
I couldn't concentrate very much on paintings. I have been travelling a lot and hadn't really a place to paint. I moved from Devon to Cornwall. I had to leave the most beautiful place on this planet, maybe it is not the entire truth. But definitely, Dunchideock and the garden of Lyalls Cottage belong to the most outstanding place in Devon. I am still mourning.

The Loony Bin Of Life

My devotion to Pinocchio is not a secret. I have always loved the character from the book by Carlo Collodi. I loved Disney's Pinocchio, I love the Russian Pinocchio, and I love my two Pinocchio toys. They have travelled with me around the world; they are ancient and wise. Made in Russia, they came from Russia to me. They are old, probably 50 and 45 years old. They are ageing. One of them has lost his hair and, unfortunately, his nose. Since I was introduced to Pinocchio's character, I have always been painting and drawing this wonderful marionette. Pinocchio willy-nilly was becoming a hero of my work. My first portrait of Pinocchio was an oil on canvas, very expressionistic, with fat, large strokes of brush paint. It is a dark painting. The next was lighter, brighter, finer, with the spell of impressionistic touch. The series Return of Peter Pan also has a Pinocchio theme. Two brothers sitting close to each other and talking. A few years ago, I made another painting with Pinocc...

My Brain - abstract collage/painting.

I like this painting. In my humble opinion, "My brain" from the Brain Series is an exciting, original and uneasy work. Everything about making it was unusual. I painted/collaged it on the grass in front of my studio and worked long hours without getting tired. My brain was making/helping with creating it. It has been made from old CDs, wires, pieces of wood, plastics, old seeds, screws, nails, nuts, and probably many other things I have forgotten. Here is my brain talking to the world. I made a conscious effort to maintain a high level of spirit and energy while working on it. It is a giant canvas, measuring 150 x 130 cm.  I am an empath, and my brain is very often bleeding when watching, reading and seeing the reality, inequality, unfairness, climate disaster, and the extinction of animals and plant species. It is not an optimistic image. That is why my brain was bleeding and still is.

Non est tuum, fortuna quod fecit tuum

Count not that as yours which fortune has made yours.   For Niels Bohr   If I were born like you in cold Denmark In the year 1885, (Nota Bene - Not really a special year,  Except that Burma became British) Would I have discovered the atom like you did? The connection you established between the quantum theory of Planck  and the atomic theory of Thomson and Rutherford? Or would I have wandered through the streets of Cambridge, In my mind, the verses of Morris From The Life and Death of Jason "Dreamer of dreams, born out of due time, Why should I strive to set the crooked straight?" How would I find the Victorian Empire, the height of hypocrisy, The death of Oscar Wilde, the tales from your fellow countryman? What would I do in that most inspiring period at the beginning of the XX century? The development of electricity, the cinema, the automobile, the telephone. But also the First World War and, later on, World War II. Di...
