Sometimes I dream of being an artist, well, not artist like in Artist, but just one who can paint, draw, write, performe music.......:-) I guess you all have this dream from time to time. I have never had spesific drawing skills, but Marta's creativity the last days have made me do a little sketch in my small sketch book. Nothing for coming generations, but for myself it means alot. And that's what art is about I think. The meaning of the prosess, having fun while making, streching one's skill, finding meaning in life - and through all this honoring the Master of Creation, the one God who has given us life.
We are discussing Monet in my Armchairtravelling yahoo group for the moment. I have always loved his inpressionistic paintings. And as Venice/Venezia is always in my mind these days, I have especially studied Monet's Venezia paintings; his Canale Grande, Palazzo da Mulda and San Giorgio Maggiore. When I stumbled and fell totally in love with Venice last September it was the colours of the city that enchanted me most. Claude Monet saw exactly the same colours in his paintings.
In only two weeks I will be back in Venezia :-)
