  English↓   Nederlands ↓ ↓    Français↓ ↓ ↓  Finding Fairy Worlds in the Pollard Willows Hi everybody, Holistic views often mention how beneficial it is to learn how to be in the moment. One fall day I felt particularly overwhelmed and nervous. Furthermore I was suffering from lack of inspiration. I went to the meadow behind our backyard for a stroll with Lupa our dog. I was disappointed since I thought being in nature would help but it didn't. Then I remembered the phrase: 'learning how to be in the moment'.

The Romance of Ruins in Visionary Painting

  English↓   Nederlands ↓   ↓     Français ↓   ↓   ↓   The Romance of Ruins in Visionary Painting Hi everybody, I have always had a soft spot for ruins. There is something magical about an ancient wall still standing while the world around it has changed again and again. When I place my hand on old stone, I cannot help wondering about all it has witnessed—the people who built it, those who lived there or passed through its doors, and the countless moments that have disappeared into time. Perhaps that is why, when I closed my eyes during a watercolor exercise and waited for an image to appear, I saw a ruin beside the sea.

Some time ago, I had the pleasure of collaborating with my wonderful artist friend Jules Ostara on a series of eight paintings. We each created four works in progress on 8 × 8 inch watercolor paper and exchanged them. Then, we completed each other's paintings, allowing our individual artistic worlds to meet and intertwine. The result was eight unique collaborative artworks, each reflecting a beautiful combination of our creative expressions. Artist Jules Ostara
