Smoke in town

Far better today that it was yesterday. The wildfire smoke from the South region of the Territories blanketed our little capital. It wasn’t really hard to breath but it resulted in this weird migraine…that made it hard to get through the working day.

I’m thinking of doing a rain dance on the terrace of my building:)Hopefully it will rain…

Inspired by local photographer

It’s been a long time since I dipped my brushes into paint and produced an artwork. Lack of time, energy, inspiration – all those kinds of excuses you can always rely on when not being productive:)

However, when I came across “In passing” series of shots by local photographer Paul Politis, I knew I wanted to paint them. The shots were taken from a moving train and they amazingly capture all the things I love: nature, movement and piece. The minimalism in them is very present but I like how it's warmed up by colours of the sky and the grass on the fields. So I asked Paul if it’s ok for me to paint them on canvas. He was very nice to agree and now I have these beauties in our hallway.

Every day I pass them - I stop, spectacle for a bit and go onto my busy day.

I urge you to take a look at Paul's amazing galleries. I’m sure you will be able to find pieces that speak to you.

Felt art

I had no idea felt cutouts can be this funny. I always thought the material is for “kids-projects-only”. Seeing the gallery of this artist made me change my mind completely. Hope you’re hitting the beach in your area and enjoying these sunny days! Happy weekend!
