Description Acrylics on canvas (65x54 cm); 2017

The forth and final painting of my second series of abstracts this year.

In Estonian meaning of the words "sky" and "heaven" can be found in one word "taevas", of course - we also have a word for paradise...but in this painting (at first I wanted to name it "The Heaven", but this has too strong religious connotation), I wanted to show that, we humans, often feel miserable, even though we are fed and having possibility to use Internet , yet... we often are not aware, that we are lucky, to have made it that far at all in our lives, having  still a chance to breath the air, smell the flowers and look at the beautiful sky above, so meaning behind this painting is - there is no need to wait for "heaven" after death, it is already here, behind the corner,it is the sky... everything around us, the moment we are living in... Enjoy it fully

I usually don`t open my ideas behind the work, cause every viewer has a right to make up one`s own mind, but in this... the story developed itself during the painting-process, and the idea is too important to me as a human and as an artist, to be untold...
