Σήμερα είναι η 100τη μου ανάρτηση!!! Ένα σταθμό για μένα και έτσι για να γιορτάσουμε θα κάνω κάτι διαφορετικό. Πριν από λίγες ημέρες με επισκέφθηκε μια καλή μου φίλη. Έφερε μαζί της μερικές ζωγραφιές που είχε κάνει και εντυπωσιάστηκα τόσο με το ταλέντο της, που θα ήθελα να τις μοιραστώ μαζί σας σήμερα!
Το πιο εμφανές χαρακτηριστικό αυτού του τύπου ήταν η αφηρημένη αισθητική του, ή αντι νατουραλιστική χαρακτήρα. Εάν η κλασική τέχνη μιμείται την πραγματικότητα τότε, η βυζαντινή τέχνη φαίνεται να έχει εγκαταλείψει αυτή την προσπάθεια υπέρ μιας πιο συμβολικής προσέγγισης.
Θέλω να ευχαριστήσω θερμά τη φίλη μου για αυτούς τους όμορφους καμβάδες και που έφερε λίγη ηλιοφάνεια στην καθημερινή μου ρουτίνα. Ελπίζω να τα απολαύσετε και ας κοιτάξουμε μπροστά για τις επόμενες 100 αναρτήσεις.
Αν σας αρέσει αυτό που βλέπετε, να το μοιραστείτε με τους φίλους σας, ή να το αποθηκεύσετε στο Pinterest. Επισεις μπορείτε να εγγραφείτε στο blog μου και να λαμβάνετε τις περιπέτειες μου δύο φορές την εβδομάδα στο e-mail σας.
Επίσης θα σας αρέσει:
I sure am looking forward to the next 100 posts! Congrats Mary! And your friend is a great artist! What beautiful paintings – I love the one with the little brick house and fence. Although they are all amazing, with beautiful colours! I also really like the jars you have in one picture,with the driftwood in them. Lovely! I’ve got lots of that here, I might copy you!!! 😉 Have a great Monday Mary!!!
Katrin, copy me. And I’ll work on some of your projects. That’s what it’s all about, all of us sharing and inspiring one another.
Congrats on your 100th post! That is amazing!
I love this bright, colorful art. It has such a unique look, and such vibrancy. The canvases are like little rays of sunshine!
Have a great week Mary!
Thanks so much Nicki. I have to sit my friend down and read her all these lovely comments. She’ll be so happy. I’m sure she is not expecting s uch an out pouring of love.
A big congratulatons to the 100 post milestone. You are so fortunate to have such a generous talented friend. I am partial to the landscape with the stormy sky. Looking forward to reading the next 100 posts.
Debra thanks. They were so much fun to style. All those bursts of color. I have to say when you go to a Byzantine church, they are full of bright colors, just like these paintings.
Congrats on the 100 posts! Looking forward to the next 100! And I love the paintings. Your friend is very talented, just like you. 🙂
Thanks so much Melissa. I am also looking forward to the next 100, and to see where they will take me.

Congratulations on your 100th post! Woohoo!!
Your friend’s artwork is wonderful. I love more symbolic-style paintings, like Byzantine. It can be so much more powerful. And you’ve styled them so well for your photographs.
Thanks Rebecca. I wanted to highlight the paintings, while adding a little something. I’m so glad you like them.
Mary, Congratulations on your 100th and I wish you many, many more!
You have managed to create extraordinary beautiful scenery / background for the lovely paintings! What a feast for the eyes!

Congratulations on your 100th post! How does it feel?
Your friend’s paintings are beautiful.
My mom paints as well. She learned again with her left hand and she makes incredible stuff.
Thank you so much for these pieces with us!
Debbie it is such a talent. To be able to create from nothing. I think that’s what we also do with our blogs but in a different form. Was there something wrong with your mom’s hand and she chose to paint with the left?
Hi Mary,
Congrats on your 100th post!! Here’s to many, many more!
Your friend is a very talented artist; her paintings made me smile on this cold and rainy Toronto day. I want to jump right into the one of the stone house, stone wall, and almond(?) tree!!
Hope you’re having a lovely Thursday!
Poppy
