@caminitigiovanni523 asked me to draw @tishdots, a talented emerging singer, originally from Serbia, living and walking her artistic path in Italy. Before drawing her I made some research and found out her special daily ritual. Everyday she draws the two little dots, below her eyes. It's an aesthetic choice, used to say to herself and to others that she does not need to resemble anyone, and that she can be herself.

I have great admiration for all people who embrace their uniqueness and live in peace with it. We all live under a lot of pressure that challenges us to be other, to be better and it's so easy to feel uncomfortable in our own shoes. -
-
I love Tish' message and her young and refreshing energy. It's so nice to remind ourselves we can be proud of the way we are and of our unique essence. There is always space for a different flower in the garden and all human beings are the same life, told in milliards of different ways.

Today at 18,00 there is the vernissage of "Per Visibilia ad Invisibilia", a collective exhibition at @onartgallery in Florence, and 5 of my abstracts will be visible there! You can swipe to see one of the paintings: "Sudden". The other paintings are also visible on my website:

"Per Visibilia ad Invisibilia" means: from visible to invisible, related to the journey from material beauty towards spiritual beauty.
Albert Einstein said: "Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution."

And this is also why I love to paint abstract together with drawing portraits, because it's a different way of conveying our emotions and heart tensions. There is a point of depth in which only the colour vibration can speak for us: no narrative, no figurative can help.

This is what the curator Romina Sangiovanni has written on this project: "This exhibition aims to focus on the transition from the formal conception of seeing the surrounding, up to the interpretation that the artist succeeds in giving, through his identity and his breath. He can donate the truth and the invisible to the viewer: in the non-verbal communication, it is the geography that manages to reach the heart more than the words themselves. Silence."

I love this theme and I am so happy and grateful to be part of the group of artists developing and translating it into art. The exhibition will start today and will last until 28th May 2019.
You are all welcome!

I chose to make this portrait because I think it can be read in two ways: is the girl challenging you? is the girl defending herself from you?
Maybe the answer depends on the viewer. I tend to think she is defending herself from the others. -
I have always been a shy girl, who loved to observe others from a hidden corner. I feel exposed when I am observed myself. And this attitude of mine can be seen as a challenging one and sometimes I hear that people are intimidated by me, which is totally surprising and hilarious to me. -
With this drawing I want to remind myself that the we don't see the reality, we filter it through our eyes, emotions and experiences and it is fun to look at it from different angles. So now, looking at the drawing again: is she challenging you? is she defending herself from you? -

“It's not the current that will drown you. It's the exhaustion from fighting it.” ― Rebekah Crane

I can be a real perfectionist and this hides a stubborn attitude sometimes, I want things to be in the 'perfect' way, no compromises!... 😌 And then I slowly found out that perfection is something much higher than what fits in my 'perfect' category box. -
Studying Japanese Sumi-e art I learned that it's not beautiful to paint 2 bamboo leaves parallel, because it's not 'zen', which means that it does not happen in real life. When you look at a field of wild flowers, they all grow and spread in apparent chaos, but at the right distance you can see a chaotic harmony. -
So in life, things can happen without an apparent reason, and make big changes, sometimes not in the way 'it was supposed to be'. Still we can enjoy the flow instead of fighting it, and let the current caress us, while the journey unfolds itself. -

What made someone a mother? Was it biology alone, or was it love?” ― Celeste Ng, Little Fires Everywhere

The answer is easy for me, it's only love.
Today with this drawing I just want to send a big hug to all women who are spectacular mothers, who protect, support, nurture, love and fight for their children.
And to all those women, sisters, aunts, grandmothers, teachers, friends, volunteers, who don't grow their own children but care, love, support, protect, help and welcome all the neighbour human beings in need, with the maternal and generous love, that never ends to amaze and move me. -

Do you have those moments when you suddenly feel you are happy without a reason? It happens to me when I am travelling, observing new landscapes and sceneries, and I feel every novelty is a gift. Or on my bicycle, in a spring day, when I suddenly feel the scent of flowering bushes, look around and see the vivid green of the new leaves, that the sunlight makes shining. And I don't think of anything else, just enjoy the moment and feel at my place in the universe.
I think it's pure happiness when we are in harmony with the world around, even for a moment, and we feel we belong and actively enjoy.
The weekend is about to start, and I hope you can have time for you to empty your mind from thoughts and let happiness surprise you, like finding a beautiful flower in your garden that you had not sown. -
