The secret garden

Mein "geheimer Garten" ist heute eine Landschaft unter Wasser,
 mit Seepferdchen und kleinen Geheimnissen.
 
My Secret Garden today is a landscape under water,
 with seahorses and little secrets.


 
Ich liebe die Farben blau, türkis, violet und alle Schattierungen
dazwischen. Für mich sind es die perfekten Meeresfarben.
Es gibt Meditationen, die das Bild einer Unterwasserlandschaft nutzen,
 sozusagen als Eintritt in eine andere Welt. Dieses Bild ist ein kleiner
Versuch,  diese Gedanken auf Papier zu bringen. Das Seepferdchen ist
ein altes Symbol  für Anmut, Schutz und Friedfertigkeit.
 
I am a lover of the  the colors blue, turquoise, violet and all shades
in between. And I think that these are perfect ocean colors.
There are meditations which use this image of an underwater
landscape so to speak,  as an entry into another world. This image
is a small attempt to bring these thoughts on paper. The sea horse is
 an ancient Symbol  for grace, protection and peacefulness.
 
  
Das Bild habe ich fertig gemalt und es hat jetzt einen Namen.
 Ich nenne es "Vergessen". Ich überlasse es Dir, lieber Betrachter,
zu entscheiden,  was vergessen wurde ...
In seinem Kontext passt es gut zum Thema "geheime Gärten".
 
The picture I have painted  now has a name. I call it "forget".
 I leave it to you, dear viewer, to decide what is forgotten...
In its context, it fits well with the theme of "secret gardens".

  17. "Forget" is great. I think she looks happy so what she forgot should stay forgotten! Love the sea garden, too.

  18. I love the ocean and the under water secret garden is wonderful. "forget" is a wonderful painting - I think everyone looking at it would have a different idea of what she has forgotten or is trying to forget.
