Hey Hi there!
Wow, it's been a while, this past month really feels like two in one.

I really want to catch up on sharing all the drawings and paintings in my sketchbook. I like them so much, they deserve to be seen :)
So now that we're slowly getting settled in the new environment, I hope I can get back to blogging more often.

I started drawing this a day before we left our last house-/cat sitting situation in Italy about a month and a half ago and worked on it while we were traveling to Portugal.

I was just about to write that I don't really get it and that I don't even particularly like it, but now that I think about it, it actually reflects perfectly how I felt this past month.
Everything was so extreme and inconsistent, uncomfortable, spiky, dreamy, dark. Birthing something new.

So funny that an artwork's meaning sometimes shows itself only after some time.
Now I'm really glad this drawing exists, it's like a time capsule of this (very challenging but important) part of my journey.
So beautiful <3

Ciao Ana,

I get where you're coming from/what you're going through.

Looking forward to seeing more of your art (soon)!

Abbracci!

I love seeing your art and reading your reflections, dearest @anafae - we too are going through such movements in our creative journeys in these magical-mystical times 🌼🪷🌹🌺

I'm loving your colorful art!

I'm glad you are getting settled again.

It is funny how you perceive a piece of art at the time of it's creation and sometimes much later, you see it differently. A few times way back, I created paintings and at some point I took a really different direction because I thought I didn't like them or painted over them! Sometimes, a year or two later, I see a photo of them and I at least love what I am seeing in the photo... what??? .... ha ha.... and I wonder why I didn't like them when I made them. Too late then though.

I really didn't like the journey here, it was very hard. That's probably why I didn't like the drawing ^^ I still think it's kind of weird, not balanced, not pretty. But hey, that's life sometimes 😄

Life DOES get weird sometimes, that is for sure !
