ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This whimsical artwork is created in a mixed media of oil paint and real, dried skeleton leaves of birch tree. It makes me think of a fragment from a poem written by the national poet of my home country ( Romania ), Mihai Eminescu. Here is the best translation I could find: If through the copper woods you pass, the silver woods shine far away, There you will hear a thousand throats proclaim the forest's roundelay. The grass beside the bubbling spring shines like snow in sunlight fair And blue flowers drenched in moisture rise and tremble in the perfumed air. It seems the tall and ancient trees have souls beneath their bar concealed, Souls that oft amid their boughs by singing voices are revealed, While down the hidden forest glades, beneath the twilight's silver haze, One sees the rapid brooklets leap along their shining pebbly ways. In hurrying, gleaming ripples bright, sighing among the flowers they go And tumbling down the torrent's track murmur and gurgle as they flow, Swelling in liquid masses clear over the shallow gravel beds, A swirling, eddying, dancing stream, on which the moon her silver sheds. De treci codrii de aramă, de departe vezi albind Ș-auzi mândra glăsuire a pădurii de argint. Acolo, lângă isvoară, iarba pare de omăt, Flori albastre tremur ude în văzduhul tămâiet; Pare-că și trunchii vecinici poartă suflete sub coajă, Ce suspină printre ramuri cu a glasului lor vrajă. Iar prin mândrul întuneric al pădurii de argint Vezi isvoare zdrumicate peste pietre licurind; Ele trec cu harnici unde și suspină-n flori molatic, Când coboară-n ropot dulce din tăpșanul prăvălatic, Ele sar în bulgări fluizi peste prundul din răstoace, În cuibar rotind de ape, peste care luna zace. Mihai Eminescu - Călin ( file din poveste ) - Romanian poem

Born in the fairytale city of Brașov, I spent my childhood in a big house where I lived with the whole family on my father's side: parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins, dogs, cats and chickens :). Recently I have come to the conclusion that it was my grandfather who influenced me the most in my life. He was a sports teacher and taught me : how to ride a bike, play tennis, billiards, chess and other board games ( using beans as game pieces ) and used to tell us a lot of fantasy stories. He loved to paint and I`m sure I also got this from him! I have a travel and tourism degree ( and wanderlust in my blood ), I love tennis, astrology, chess, biking, reading and I have always had art-related hobbies : I love photography and people say I have a good eye for it, I have always painted my clothes, bags, shoes, even skis, I’ve been collecting coins since childhood for their beauty, for their esthetic value and geographical characteristics, I have hairstyling skills and fashion sense. I have started to paint more actively around 2017, and in 2018 I have started a small business by hand-painting vintage bags when: BANG!!! I rediscovered myself, it was like my alter ego suddenly came out; I could not think of anything else but painting, I could not stop imagining the process and the way it made me feel, I was like hypnotised and I knew I wanted to do this for the rest of my life! I started painting a lot in a variety of mediums, learning and reading a lot about it and after a while I started taking art courses at Magda Vacariu Art School, which were interrupted by the pandemic, but the learning continued, as I am a devoted autodidact and the curiosity, desire and huge love for painting motivated me. When I paint I am complete and I have that authentic feeling of inner peace!
