It's been wayyyyyyyyy too long time since my last post. DAM. 5 months! However, I do have a good explanation. I been extremely busy this whole winter, spring and summer (so far) with school stuff, exams and research project. Positive thing is, though, that I also advanced lots in my studies. Graduation is much closer again!
Now I feel so free. I won't have to studystudystudy 100% until the end of august and I am sooooo excited about this! I will finally have time to do some paintings! And I already have many many ideas... I did do one painting already in april or so when managed to get one day off from everything else. Perhaps it's describing how I felt sometimes during the spring: trapped in my small room with the books and papers......
Or not. I really had lots of fun, too, even though for sure it was tough. About the manymany ideas then.... I will start working on a quite big project in the coming days. It will be kind of an art exhibition project, a collection of paintings but it wont be on walls in some space for certain amount of time. It's bit different. It will be some 20 paintings with one big theme and all of them will be size A4. They will be done on canvas but they will be put in a folder that I will be carrying around then like models do with their portfolios. I will also post the collection here in my blog.
But why this? I been dreaming of doing this kind of bigger collection of paintings with one theme for long time already but always there has been two problems: time and space. This summer I then decided that I WILL HAVE TIME but the place was still causing me some worries. I already do have paintings in a coffee place but I didn't think this collection would fit there. So I got this idea of portfolio. I already did have a portfolio that had pictures of my paintings but those photos never catch the colours in original way. Moreover, the photos always lose bit of the emotion that is caught in the painting. So I decided to have a portfolio with original paintings. This I will then carry with me when I travel and meet people so that as many interested people as possible will get to see the paintings. I don't know how all this is gonna work out but I for sure am excited about it.
