Description

Watercolors, ink pen & graphite pencils. SOLD
Size: 10x15 cm

This piece describes the feeling I’ve had lately about my dreams. Dreams that I have for so long yearned for and hoping to one day make real. But I’m holding myself back, too afraid to fail, or to discover that all I ever dreamed of isn’t going to make me any less depressed. It’s like a constant tug-of-war with myself, trying to push forward, but also at the same time dragging myself backward. Will dreams just be dreams forever or will I ever find courage to make them real.

Done for Femme Thou Art Collective ‘s “Dreams” January art auction.

Your colored art is simply beautiful!
Love the intepretation of her dream/wish, like a hope, like a something of near, but still too much far from her.

Thank you Yes, that's just how I feel!
And I'm very glad you like the colors, cause I'm always conflicted when it comes to it^^,

First, I like the lines in this, how they come from her (your) hair and frame the picture. Also great job with the watercolors! Secondly, I hope you find the courage! I think taking small steps and just putting one foot in front of the other gets you where your going.

Thank you so much for the encouraging words! I think so too, small steps everyday, will get me closer, but it's also very easy to not see the progress then. That I have to remind myself with.

Jag gillar hur håret och trädet vävs ihop till en sluten cirkel. Riktigt fin!

Tack så mycket! Det var ifrån början inte meningen att de skulle vävas ihop, men allt eftersom jag kluddade vidare så blev det så, och det passade ju mycket bättre^^,
