"Oasis of unconditional love" 2021 Print

"Oasis of unconditional love" 2021 The picture is painted with acrylic on fiberboard, varnished. The painting has already taken part in home and church exhibitions. The picture was painted in the author's technique and stylization with splashes of pointillism. The start of this picture was in 2020, and the finish is already in 2021. Nice creative run )) This picture is the fruit of my many years of teaching. Thousands of children, adolescents and adults have passed through me (my eyes, hands, heart, soul) ... I have devoted more than 15 years of my life to teaching. And now I continue to teach, lecture, conduct trainings and master classes ... I continue to develop, teach, learn from my students and teach art therapy ... Children from a year and a half to 17-18 years old studied with me ... And this is what I realized - A child is a battery! The task of parents is to charge her with love, acceptance, understanding ... And then no matter what dogs of doubts chase the caravan of his potential ... No matter how the world and his neighbors doubt his talent, intelligence, feeling ... He will have enough strength to be realized ... Enough strength to create ... LOVE YOUR CHILDREN! CHARGE THE BATTERIES OF THEIR HEARTS WITH YOUR LOVE !!! We can only give what we have ourselves! Perhaps you are a child who was not loved, protected, did not accept as you are, did not show mercy to you, did not want or could not understand you, your tastes, fears, wounds, dreams ... And it hurts you all your life ... You constantly doubt yourself and your strengths, and it is easy to lead you astray ... Then this picture will become a revelation for you! You know that I am an honest artist and creator! Therefore, I will open myself to you! I am that child whom they did not love, did not want, did not understand ... The only thing that my parents loved was to punish me, beat me ... (( My parents were far from art, and as far as I can remember, I drew and thought figuratively, metaphorically ... I still could not walk, but I already painted the walls ... A little later, but too early, I began to write poetry and aphorisms ... From me all my relatives laughed ... They destroyed my pictures, tore up my poems ... I went through a lot. So I took the pseudonym CHALLENGE! I have accepted the challenge and I am fighting ... The world around me was a military front, and my family was the «REAR», in which they cut off your wings and stab you in the back. I do not know what protection and support of loved ones is. For me, the word mother is empty! And the word father is an abstraction. To this day, my mother does not understand me and my art ... She finds it ridiculous ... I am like an invalid for her, like a freak ... Too smart, too talented, too philosophical, speaking briefly - STRANGE, SICK! I was raised by my grandmothers ... One sang lullabies for me in Yiddish, the other in Ukrainian ... One survived the persecution of Jews, the other survived the Holodomor (Terror-Famine). The only thing they could convey to me was the revelation that one had to be faceless, gray, not standing out from the crowd ... They taught me professionally to be afraid ... And they almost succeeded! They taught to be ashamed of their identity, culture, language ... They can be understood ... They survived only because they killed themselves in themselves. Although is this life? They remained alive in order to survive, be afraid, shy and hide their mental wounds, traumas ... But I love them anyway! And I am grateful to them for having them! Thanks to one grandmother, I love Jewish culture, thanks to another, I love Ukrainian culture ... I swim in the rivers of Ukrainian and Yiddish ... Two of my favorite rivers-languages are Hebrew and Ukrainian! ) What if your heart battery is not charged? I'm looking for love from LOVE! God is love! No matter how you call Him, and no matter how you treat Him, only He can fill your heart (flood) with LOVE! Only He can teach you to love. If God gives my wife and me children, I want to love them, understand, protect, develop their talents ... I want to help them find themselves in this world ... I think I can teach them wisdom, joy, happiness ... Although it is not possible to teach this) I would rather be able to teach them where, in what and in whom to look for it... ) SOMETHING LIKE THIS! ) This picture is a SYMBOL! This picture is the COAT OF ARMS! This painting is my dream to have a loving family! This picture is saturated with love, like a sponge with water ... This picture is like a flower smelling of acceptance and protection ... This painting is Embrace of Embrace! King Solomon has a book of Song of Songs, and I will have a picture - Embrace of Embrace! ) This picture is a song of love ... a hymn to acceptance and hugs ... Let this picture, this family, depicted on it, embrace your heart, shelter and warm your soul ... May this loving family adopt you !!! This picture, like much of my work, BREATHES WITH SYMBOLS ... Everything in this picture has its own symbolism ... Each color has its own message ... Each line has its own song ... The colors of earth and sky, spirituality and matter intertwined ... merged into one whole ... This is a fabulous oasis of hugs! There is a dove of peace, and a snail-time ... Time can take on any form ... It can crawl slowly like a turtle or a snail, and can fly quickly like a bird ... Let the time, when you feel good, comfortable and calm, crawl like a snail ... ))) On the one hand, don't be childish! On the other hand, stay a child. Because only a child can be surprised, rejoice and create fresh, non-standard ... An artist (creative person) is simply obliged to remain a CHILD! This is one of his vocations! If you look closely at the picture, you will see that the grain of love, sown in the black soil of my mother's soul, has sprouted as a child-flower ... This flower is waiting for incredible adventures ... unusually beautiful clouds, rains ... This flower will meet with lovely toilers bees. .. Faith and compliments from parents - these are the bees that a child-flower needs so much for a fruitful life ... Love is a network! Therefore, everything in this picture is intertwined ... Everything blooms and smells of love ... This is a real creative OASIS of LOVE and ACCEPTANCE! Love is creativity! And creativity is love! Let this OASIS decorate the dunes of your days ... Let your heart, your eyes and soul become oases ... Let your life be like an oasis ... Let the caravans of your creative days go around the world and bring everyone your love, your acceptance and understanding ... spread the oasis around the world .. Let everything be an OASIS! Let everything be LOVE! Enrich your life, feed your life, drink your life with Hugs ... As always, I was honest with you, aphoristic and metaphorical) This is already a TRADITION))) With love, yours and God's artist © Аndriy Vyklyk
