“It is about time. The time behind being slower. The time ahead being faster.”

 

I am always interested in time.
I am in interested in memory,

We will react to things, love or like them, because of ourselves relating to such.
I am interested in light.
I am interested in colour.
I know music, especially classical, which moves me due to memory.
Very young, a record plays music that takes to my memory forever.

I usually like to paint outside, somewhere that moves me due to colours and shapes and, of course, memory.

When painting, the experience of… sets in my memory.
Time slows and one is.

As does music, if you truly are just with it.

As does a great photograph. 

A work of art works as it stops one. It makes one return.

I like to think each one of us can stop and love where we are, and have courage to know what we love, and follow through with whatever truly moves us.

Herewith portals. Enter the ones that mean something. Do not go near those that do not do anything for you. Life is now and we only know now. So, choose well.
