Your studio is your sanctuary a sacred place where it is all about art and you can be brave with the paint dont have to worry about the floor or the wall make as much mess as it is necessary... 2010-5-4 08:56:54 http://www.bristol-portrait.co.uk/page8.htm#64099 Invitation for youI will be exhibiting abstract paintings and selling small prints and cards at the Southville centre in the Cafe area as you enter to the centre it is to the left on the 8 and 9 May 2010 Saturday and Sunday.

Starting from 6th February for 68 weeks 2010-2-2 15:03:07 http://www.bristol-portrait.co.uk/page8.htm#56168 It has been a unique and valuable experience for me both personally and artistically to work with mums and babies in the Wellspring Healthy Living Centre. As a professional artist I have been painting portraits for nearly 10 years. Ive always been fascinated by the human body the emotions and expressions that a simple movement can transmit. Witnessing this special connection between mother and child this very special bound was very inspiring for me. As an artist I always observe and pay attention to the details. I try to understand what I see and interpret it to a visual language. On the session I have seen and felt a lot of love patience and caring. This unexplainable feeling of motherhood was present in the air. This is what I tried to capture in the drawings the way the mums were holding their babies or just sitting next to them but always with them watching and guarding. At first when the sessions started I could see that the mums were a little bit shy and maybe scared... 2010-1-14 17:01:16 http://www.bristol-portrait.co.uk/page8.htm#52818 World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms httpwww.wwoof.hu 2009-11-18 13:47:15 http://www.bristol-portrait.co.uk/page8.htm#52800 I want to talk about colours and how important they are. I dont want to talk about artificially generated and manipulated colours that all around us in the city. The real colours are made by nature and mother Earth. Some of you might think it is not so important but unfortunately the human race lost connection a long time ago with this natural source. But it is still not late to get it back... Sky blue Have you noticed that your mood changes when you can see the sky in the morning and you wake up for a lovely sunshine This is the colour blue. When you are fortunate enough to have a nice day like this take a few minutes and look at the sky. Just stare at the colour without trying to think of anything else. This will fill you up with piece. It will give you energy to start your day with honesty and helps you to say what is on your mind. Blue is the colour of communication.

During these lifetimes our main character deals with the manifestation of most human qualities the lower ones such as lust greed ignorance passions and anger and also the higher ones such as the desire for knowledge health longlife wisdom a still mind and energetic calm. The author spells out the karmic consequences of these strengths and frailties so that the reader cannot possibly overlook them. Beyond these unveilings there are philosophical insights such as The bodys weapons are passion desire sensuality and yearning after beauty. The spirits weapons are aftereffects of t... 2009-7-9 13:01:06 http://www.bristol-portrait.co.uk/page8.htm#44088 Hello again Its been a while....
