metamorphosis

Happy harvest
in a small scale
and magnificent
yellow and green

metamorphosis
from seed
to food.

Ariane, I'm thinking of You.

metamorphosis
I'm saying Your name
Your name is in my voice.

dream

Todays drawing challenge is dream at clever Nadine's
I didn't draw,
but I dream...

about silence.
the sounds of silence

the only noice allowed / aloud in my dream are sounds of Nature
like childrens voices and whispers of wind.

translation map

Here are the english words for the first pic in the post map, two steps below. I hope You can manage to decipher it.

map

This weeks host of drawing challenge is perfect Hi Happy Panda with map. If You haven´t been visiting Rachel - GO THERE! She shows a wonderful view of Life on her blog.

Now for the map, I´m showing some old work that is still in progress. It´s old as in I started it eleven years ago and Old as in the deepth of knowledge that comes from it, as it comes to me from Timelessness. They are sort of maps or compasses. I often do metaphysical maps. I don´t really know yet how to talk about it/them. And I´m quite brave to show this work... I have rarely shown it for a decade. They are here as well.
The third pic is a map of colour nuances. I save my mixtures in a cover. I am strictly bound to some of the nuances that my inner maps show me. So I really need to know how I got there, at least practically in the mixture process. Because there is no way (yet) for me to theoretically describe or lead the way in or out of my maps, or is there?

I´ll come back with a translation of the first pic.
Now off to the forest, we´ra having a barbecue with some friends. Sweet sunday!

blossom

Drawing challenge, blossom. My son accompanies us today, he is five.
He hurt his foot this week and has been with me in the studio. Inspiring for both him and me. I'll show You some more results later. I think I have a plan.
For more inspiration welcome to visit his blog. Not very updated as there are many interests in the life of a five-year old :)
Now have a nice weekend and go to the lovely Stephanie for more blossom!

an A

Nadine chose a letter from the alphabet for drawing challenge and I dared the opportunity to translate a story that I´m working on. I guess it´s still in progress but I´ll tell You the essence of this story. It goes:

Do You need to know the alphabet first, before You can read?
If You don´t know that there are books then maybe You don´t know there´s a thing called reading.
Don´t you need to know the knowledge about reading before You can understand that there are letters that can form words, that can frame sentences, that build stories that roots in history.
So You must know history before You know the alphabet?
But how to read history when You don´t know about characters from the alphabet?
And to decipher them in to meaning.

So what then if You find an A.
You could think it´s a sherd of a star.

Well, it might just be the fragment of a star that someone used as an A to frame sentences to tell their story.
