4 Seasons Gallery
Whilst producing these four seasons I could see each season in my mind. I could sense the smell of spring & it's chilling air from the remaining snow, so this is my north spring. Summer in many places is full of sun,rain & beautiful things, like girls wearing as little as possible & men wearing shorts to exhibit the best parts of their body, yet in here you can also see all the truth, ugly & nice. So in my eyes summer is the most decorated & mindless season when everyone can express themselves in an extreme way. Autumn is rich, joyful & mature like an aged lady who knows how to put on loudly coloured dresses yet still looking simply beautiful. This kind of beauty you can also see from a happy pregnant womans's shining face. In winter, the north is everywhere white with snow. On the top of mountain it is brilliantly pure & transparent, however in reality most places are not as pure with all the mud & dirt. Although not really ugly, it is just not as pure, so I put dirt-spots in the painting as well as the hope-spots (the few bright coloured dots). I believe hope only exists in the painful places, when you are too content hope does not enter your mind.These where my thoughts as I was painting.
