An Eve of my mind - A nude woman in the green light of nature - then and now
And this is the same dream image but painted on Octomber 4 this year. As you can see the woman looks more realistic. She seems to be alive and everytime I am looking at this painting I wish I could be there in the middle of the green nature with her an hold her in my arms.

In see her in every star
I see her in every star, I see her in every ray of light, in the whole nature, I see her in everything and if she was real I would place her in the center of my universe.
The image below is a painting of the same woman I've made 10 years ago. By that time my paintings were different from what I do now but the image I had in my mind was the same: a beautiful woman shining in my universe, between the stars.

Her voice made me fall in love 7 years ago
7 years ago I listened to the song “William Hawk – Say goodbye” and the female voice really made me fall in love. Her voice is so sweet, so warm. Here is a painting I’ve made then(left) and a drawing I’ve made today(right), both representing her, the way I imagined her, young, beautiful, with long dark hair and white smooth skin, looking at me with her big eyes and telling me not to leave her.
I could not find out who she is but these is the way I see her with my mental eyes when I listen to that song.

She is an ice mountain
I’ve made this pen drawing of a ice woman today. She is like an ice mountain so beautiful but so distant and cold and I can never reach her. These is the emotion I’ve felt so many times, her coldness and distant attitude standing between us like an ice mountain.

A winter queen
This in my painting of a winter queen, so cold so bad but so beautiful. When she looks at me her eyes are freezing me. Everything she touch is turned into ice. Her dark hair is shining in the aurora light. She is the beauty of the winter and the aurora of the night
