Uspavanka za oblake

I tried to be active these days. So I finished the previous fairy and put her in some floral setting. I started also another one...At this point I am pretty occupied with things from fairy tales and fantasy. The only thing I want is to be far, far from reality. I would like to thank Anne (Anne simle crochet) because she gave me the award. She has a great blog where you can see planty of her crocheted creations: bookmarks, bracelets, wallets, hats, baby clothes...Everything is really wonderful! Thank you Anna!

Kako sam divno provela vreme sinoć, praveći neke male, čudne figurice od kartona.  Prvo sam pravila čajanku sa bratanicama i njihovom drugaricom iz komšiluka. Verovatno nešto sa mnom nije u redu, ali meni takvo društvo najviše odgovara. Kad pomislim na kafu, tračeve i turske serije - nekako se naježim. Ne bih volela da ova moja rečenica ikog uvredi, ali ja nikad ne bih mogla da živim tako. I posle tog lepog druženja, reših da se malo poigram mojim papirićima. Iako sam pročitala bezbroj priča za decu, ovi radovi nisu povezani ni sa kakvom posebnom bajkom, oni su nastali potpuno spontano i bez neke posebne namere. Ko zna, možda na osnovu njih nastane neka priča:) Da ne dužim previše evo radova. I had a great time last night, making a small, fantastic creatures. First I made a tea party with my nieces and their friend from the neighborhood. Maybe something wrong with me, but most of my time I spent with children. When I think of coffee, gossip and TV shows - I always feel uncomfo...

Nisam baš sasvim sigurna u koju bi kategoriju trebalo svrstati ove moje nove radove. Oni su kombinacija crteža i kolaža, odnosno figure izrezane od kartona. Ponekad ni sama ne znam šta da mislim o svemu ovom. Sve započne euforijom, a završi se nedoumicom. Jedino što znam zasigurno je to da ću ih nazvati - dream days. Prvo zato što su ovi radovi podsećanje na neko bezbrižnije doba, puno radosti, kad su dani trajali beskonačno dugo i bili ispunjeni igrom koja je trajala u nedogled, doba maštovito, bezazleno, gde vreme i prostor ne igraju nikakvu ulogu, gde je svaka zamisao ostvariva, a granice skoro da ne postoje. Čeznem za tim osećajem, za tom lakoćom. A drugi razlog za taj naziv, i ne manje važan, jeste što je to naziv zbirke priča Keneta Grejema, mog omiljenog dečijeg pisca. Neobično je najpre to što je jedan obični, skromni službenik u banci, poreklom Škot u drugoj polovini 19. veka uopšte pisao knjige za decu, a još je neobičnije što je on to činio sa toliko dirljive nežnosti. Kak...

I was pretty busy today, preparing works for a painting contest. My creative manner quite chaged in the last year. I began to feel a great enthusiasm fot illustration. Somethimes I felt that the illustration is less important than the classical painting. I'm pretty mistake made such comparison. I realized that it was not easy at all to make illustrations. It takes a very good knowledge of anatomy and also understand the substance of things to be able to simplify. Making puppets of cardboard, I began to feel unusual excitement I have never felt before. And I realized that I had found what I was looking for all along. Finally I feel complete freedom and the abillity to express myself artistically. All this is still at the beginning and I always expect something new to happen. Until then, here's a new peace. Danas sam bila prilično zauzeta pripremajući radove za neki slikarski konkurs. Moj način stvaranja se prilično promenio u poslednjih godinu dana, a ilustracija mi je post...
