Painting with watercolour

Post 1

Alfredo

Two months ago I suddenly felt the need to start painting.
Painting with watercolour.
I should say; painting with black watercolour.

First the T.V.is disconnected, PC unplugged, no radio, no telephone.
And there I am, in silence, with many sheets of paper,my hands,heart, will and emotions and of course paintbrushes a few paintbrushes (who suffer deeply by my way of treating them. Sometimes one breaks).

And when I feel "the momentum" I draw my lines in about ten seconds.
Sometimes three or four and rarely a few minutes.

Sometimes I paint with my eyes closed.

I feel the need to do it and that is móre than enough reason to dó it and kéép doing it.

I enjoy it and discover aspects of myself.
I discover the paper, thelines, the brushes.
I discover expression of my emotions, my will.

It's just me, the paper, brush, water and black waterpaint.

Sometimes I use my hands or a finger.

I like the combination of abstract and fugurative. That's what I discover when I have made them.

It's risky for me to write about it and share it at the web, because I need the ingrediënts of strong intimacy.
But - me too - I like to share and get in contact with those around the globe that share the same passions.

So feel free to react if you want to. But mainly I am interested in yóur creative way to "explore life"/"express life within you"


Anyhow, keep going forwards.
