That
little painting of mine - “The Flowers” - has found a new home.
At Mrs. Linda’s place in America. 😊
Back
when I painted “The Flowers”, the evening seemed somehow sad, and
I was also in a sad mood myself... Two simple flowers… I thought to
myself that this painting would probably end up on a dusty shelf,
because it seemed so bland… Still, painting it brought me
satisfaction and joy… I was longing for something that was not
there (yet)… Back then I wouldn’t have even dreamed that a so
simple painting of mine will have such a joyful journey and such a
joyful destiny.
“The
Flowers” has been on a couple of exhibitions, although every time I
had my doubts whether it would be worth the audience’s while to
show it. But every time there was somebody who liked namely this
one.
I’m really happy right now !
When my friend
Aave told me that her daughter Annela had given my painting as a gift
to her friend Linda from America, my heart started beating very fast.
For quite a while. Such a thing had never happened to a painting
purchased from me before. Not that I know of anyway.
Some
days ago I happened to mention to my friend Maarja that it would be
nice if some of my paintings found their way to America, because I
will soon have visited the whole of Estonia with my paintings.
One
must take care about one’s dreams and be prepared for them to
fulfil in unexpected ways. Or, I guess, rather, one must dream big
and courageous dreams.
Have a nice trip to your new home,
my little flowers !
Bring lots of people down there joy and
smiles.
This is the best gift for me and the best prize for
my artist’s work !
