Exploring your world. Tourmaline Print

In this series of artwork called "Exploring your world" artist investigates the emotional state of modern people. After Covid-19 conquered the world, mental health questions became more pronounced among other everyday life problems. This is sort of an inner conversation or reflection on "how can we bring balance to our life?" My watercolor technique inspired by a Greek legend about Amethyst. Amethyst was a young virgin who became the object of wrath of the Greek God Dionysus after he became intoxicated with red wine. When Amethyst cried out to Goddess Diana for help, she immediately turned the girl into a white, shimmering stone (quartz). When Dionysus realized what had happened and felt remorse for his actions, his tears dripped into his goblet of red wine. The goblet overturned, and the red wine spilled all over the white rock, saturating it until it became the purple quartz that is now known as Amethyst. I used Dionysus's tears to create beautiful patterns on watercolor which are unique and never repeating. As a conclusion of this story I think we can take our problems, anxieties, bitterness and create something beautiful that will bring stability and peace to our lives.
