Desire

These are the drawings and painting I've made being inspired by the poem "Dorinta" (desire) by the Romanian poet Mihai Eminescu, since the year 2000. I really fell in love with the young girl with long blond hair he was writing his poems about. He loved her. She died when she was just 19 and that has left a deep pain in Eminescu's soul. He wrote many poems about his loss.
I've made this drawings and paintings imagining she is next to me so I can feel her in my arms, touch her, kiss her.

Love and desire, oil on canvas painting

 

I wish I could feel her, feel her hot breath, her kisses on my neck. I’ve made the painting above, an oil on canvas painting full of emotion thinking about the love I cannot have and wanting it to be real
