Nude pastel painting: A Dream of Angel’s Bells

This painting creates a very special atmosphere anywhere it is. There is also unique story behind it.

A dream of Angel's bellsThe painting was created in the autumn of 2008. Originally it was supposed to be an image of woman sleeping in a field of poppies. However when the seasons were changing, the idea painting was evolving and if you look at this picture closely you can sense few pastel levels that supplement each other. And the woman was finally sleeping in her magic world with blossoms of “Angel’s Bells”. There is a legend that monks used to contemplate under the blossoms of “Angel’s Bells” as the smell was dizzy. This picture reveals its real meaning when it stands next to a pastel painting “A Dream of Angel’s Bells 2”. It is hard to see who is dreaming and who is dreamed. Maybe it is because of those mysterious “Angel’s Bells”.

Welcome to the blog of my pastels.

As I turn the pages of my life,
I learn to pint them with the colors of my emotions.
Only then I do feel happy and thank the Lord
for I can see
for I can hear
for I can love.
I want to ask Him to multiply this feeling as those fish and I will have enough space
bread, but then I am afraid whether for all of this inside of me…
