The moon and the forest, painting

 

The kiss of the sun and moon

This is the painting Ițve made yesterday, a painting about twin flames, a painting about love, a painting about the sun and moon, two complementary energies, the moon - yin and the sun- yang. You can watch me making this painting in the video below.

Solar eclipse

Yesterday's solar eclipse has inspired me to make these ball point pen drawings. I still remember the august 11 1999 total solar eclipse

A painting and a strange phoenomenon

I've made this painting yesterday and while I was painting it my mind was travelling to Greece. Iwas thinking about Athens. I was thinking about the Monastiraki square, the streets of Athens and the Mediteranean Sea.  Then I was thinking about Egypt and I've seen a short thin Egyptian woman in the human silhouette I was painting.

I wanted to paint a flame that resembles the shape of the human body but I ended up painting a woman with oriental facial features. with a clear face. I wanted to make her look happy but her face was sad. I tried  to paint again over what I painted but sadness and tears remained there every time I tried to change the look of her face. I tried to paint her long dark hair but I just could not paint it.
Then I used the paintbrush to paint without looking at the canvas and instead of painting the hair I covered her head with a veil made of silk, so smooth, so soft. Finally the sadness on her face has disappeared, being replaced by a meditative state of mind.
The I felt something is missing, the holly moon above, so I painted the moon too.


You can watch me painting in the video below.

My dream of a waterfall in the moonlight

Yesterday I had a dream about a waterfall in the moonlight so I've made this drawing of the image in my dream

The poet Sappho, the Pleiades and the moon

The poet Sappho, the Pleiades and the moon, oil on canvas painting

The moon has set 

And the Pleiades; 

It is midnight, 

The time is going by, 

 And I sleep alone. 

This is Sappho's midnight poem. This poem has inspired me to make the painting above, a painting of a lonely Sappho watching the Pleiades and the moon while they set at midnight.

Recently the UTA researchers have dated this poem between January 25 and March 31.
Sappho has written this poem feeling lonely, as lonely as I feel, that feeling of loneliness that we all have when we cannot be with the one we love or we want to love.

Sappho, the Pleiades and the moon

This is my ballpoint pen drawing of a sad and lonely Sappho watching the moon and the Pleiades.
The poem below, one of her creations, has inspired me

The moon has set, 
And the Pleiades; 
It is midnight, 
The time is going by, 
And I sleep alone.

The eye under the depressive tree

Selene or the moon

This is my newest painting. Ive made it today dreaming of a goddess of the moon with roses in her hands, spreading rose petals around her

The girl in my dream, memories since the year 2001

This is a drawing I've made now starting from an older painting, a painting I've made by the year 2002 beeing inspired by the song Schiller - Dream of you and the dreams I had by the year 2001 when I used to dream about a young girl with white skin and long black hair, a girl I've never meet in my real life. The image below is the old painting. It is not amasterpiece but I keep it cause of it's sentimental value. It remins me of the girl I used to dream when I was a teenager

I remember by that time the song made me imagine the girl in my dreams on a mountain on the moon singing with her beautiful voice, wearing jewels, with the Earth behind her.

Watching the moon and the stars
