When I was a kid I wanted to be an inventor. One of my 'inventions' was a flying machine out of a cardboard box and balloons. I was convinced that I could take my sisters and friends on a flying trip if only I had enough balloons. Now I'm older and wiser and 'know' that it is not possible. To some extend it is a good thing to learn that there are limits, it keeps us safe. But I do wonder sometimes if we don't learn this there-are-limits-lesson to well. That we put limits where they don't need to be. I want to see the world again through the eyes of a child.
Your paintings are so lovely. I'm thrilled.

Me too. Let's discover a world full of endless possibilities! Let's dream and create (or invent)! And I totally agree with Pien; out loud!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIn some of your paintings I can discover a world seen through a child's eyes. Luckily there are no limits in creativity! :o)

BeantwoordenVerwijderenfunny you should say you want to see the world through the eyes of a child. seeing your illustration regularly, i think you may have succeeded in your wish already. i find, your imagination, through your adult eyes, has stayed pretty unencumbered by adult worries, and there's childlike wonder shining through your work!

Me too! To have the confidence of a child with endless possibilities.
