Numb

Nothing feels better than letting all the stress out and painting during exam times.
I will let the painting speak for itself.

A better match

We were nothing but a few shades of grey molded into each other so beautifully. It was never to get more magical. I lost parts of me in you and so did you. But we were nothing but a few shades of grey and who wouldn't prefer a bit colour in their life? So you found yourself the perfect shades of the perfect colour, someone who is a better match to you than I am. And I tried so hard to become a colour, any colour, even the ones I hated, but I failed. And because I was so lost and confused I became every colour there is. And all colours combined create white. Now I am nothing but white shattered pieces holding on to the memory of a once magical life.

I never wrote an interpretation to any painting in my entire life, but I thought I would this time, because I didn't think many would get it right. Now I'm actually contradicting myself, because I always said the thing I liked the most about abstract is that everyone can see it differently, so even though I wrote an interpretation this time, I'd still like to hear those of other people.
Today is the 21st of November and I only realized that at the very end, but I was so happy, because I like the number 21 the most.
This is also the first time I paint something within the following two days after being inspired to do it and I am glad about that.
Ciao, beatiful people.

"Mystère"

This summer I went to the US. One of the cities I visited there was Las Vegas and as much as I hated it, watching Cirque du Soleil's show "Mystère" was one of the top 3 things I enjoyed doing there the most. I was never inspired more by anything in my entire life. It was a great show; a two hour long piece of art with awesome music. I downloaded the tracks and listened to them while painting this, which was magical, because it almost brought me back there. I started the painting on September 27th and was done with everything except that figure in the forderground. But because school takes up most of my time I was only able to get it done yesterday.

Wall paintings

I haven't even held a paint brush in my hand since April and today it was finally time to do it. My friend, Mona Sophie, and I painted on her bedroom wall. Again! This is the second time we do.
The first time (which was last year) we painted a peacock and today we painted something a little more abstract next to her book shelf.

Electra

It's been a while since I last painted! It sucks, but anyway, I got this painting done last week; once again very early in the morning before everyone woke up. It's just magical painting while watching the sun rise.
I named this painting Electra after this amazing eight year old girl I met in Siwa last month. And I know you'll probably never read this, Electra Henrik, but thank you so much, I owe you a lot for being such a great inspiration to me.
Oh and this is finally my very first "purplish gold" painting!

"Beauty in a Bubble"

I do not remember when I started painting this, but it was about two months ago, I guess. I had painted the background back then and yesterday I finally finished all the rest. It sucks how long it sometimes takes me to finish a painting.
This is the first painting I ever varnished. And spray varnishing is actually harder than I thought it would be, I think I'll try varnishing with a brush next time.
Oh and I put the title "Beauty in a Bubble" between quotation marks on purpose, because I'm not the one who came up with the name; it was a friend of mine who did.

Absent-minded Smile

This is my first mixed media painting (if I may call it that). I used PVA adhesive, crushed dried flower petals and acrylics. It's the second biggest painting I did so far (30×100cm). It was painted on Saturday December 28th 2013 and is therefore the last one I painted that year.
