WHEN YOU ARE LOST YOU ARE NOT ALONE

 

The human condition is one of contrasts.

 

Our lives are sometimes marked by extreme highs and desperate lows. For all the joys and pleasures we experience, there are dark places also and our challenge is to embrace all of the above as part of a seamless whole.

 

To genuinely engage with life demands that we accept all it presents us - regardless. All the beauty and sadness. All the shiny, loving faces and the dull, unforgiving looks alike are ours to own.

 

Everything.

 

The condition of being human is a state of constant change and we must make that change into a stairway by which to climb further. Together.

oil & cold wax on cotton rag paper 15x11”

A face that doesn’t pose,

but pauses.

A moment that doesn’t shout,

but softly speaks.

 

The world blurs in the background,

yet here —

in this expression —

it’s perfectly clear.

 

A conversation without words,

a thought that lingers.

Between light and leaves,

between closeness and distance.

Great time in the studio working on this portrait of the great E.Y. 5x5 Oil on panel

Great fun working on this portrait of a co-worker and her husband just for fun.

A moment of stillness, captured in ink. This piece explores the subtle emotions that come with deep reflection and introspection. 🌑️

 

📅 Created: 2023

️ Medium: Ink Pen on Dark Paper

🔍 Title: "Thoughtfulness"

 

What does this expression evoke for you? Let me know in the comments. 👇

Some faces carry a rare kind of naivety.

Not childish — but brave enough to trust.

This is not about innocence.

It is about openness.

 

Dedicated to Lelya, goddess of love and gentle beginnings.

5x7 oil on panel inspired by a selfie shot years ago.

🇬🇧 She sits, quiet and still, between two worlds: the raw weight of flesh and the weight of time.

In her gaze, fatigue — or perhaps indifference.

In the chilled light of the market, even labour turns into silence.

🇫🇷 Elle est là, immobile, entre deux mondes : le poids brut de la viande et celui du temps.

Dans son regard, de la fatigue — ou de l’indifférence.

Sous la lumière froide du marché, même le travail semble se figer.

 

🇮🇹 Siede, immobile, tra due mondi: il peso crudo della carne e quello del tempo.

Nel suo sguardo, stanchezza — o forse indifferenza.

Nella luce fredda del mercato, anche il lavoro si trasforma in silenzio.
