Scotland 2009-2010 -- PART-3


We Artist are always in love with someone or something ... mostly in ourselves.
Watching the world and all beings in it like this, is but a wonderful thing.

Thank you, Yue ... for your kind attention.... 😋🙂



Scotland 2009-2010 -- PART-4


So, here the next two images. Both are from the North-West of the Highlands

Dear Michael,

Thank you for sharing amazing photos with us. It's a blessing to have an artist here and enjoy the beauty of the photos and share our feelings about them.🙂

Actually it seems my mind, or my soul, "has to" name any photo! For example, seeing the cottage the words "safety and trust" came into my mind. Or the photo with the stone wall bolded the title "secrets".🌗🌗

But you know, among all of these photos, one shocked me and made me look at it for a long time. I will tell you more about it later.

Thanks again for the calming moments you provide us by your art.🍀🌈

Best

Ayda

Hi Michael,

Thank you so much for sharing those photos of Scotland with me! They are all absolutely stunning, and they really made me want to visit someday.

The photos of the sea, in particular, left a huge impression on me. It feels different from the seas we have here in Japan—it gave me this strange, mysterious feeling, almost like a shiver down my spine. It felt so powerful, like it couldn't be fully contained within the frame. Thank you for sharing such an incredible experience with me. It truly moved me. 🙂

When I saw that you’d logged in again, Ayda, my heart leapt with joy several times.
I’d been wondering from time to time whether you were keeping well.

I am honored and blessed to have a friend like you, Michael. Your beautiful soul and art is a"must" in this world.

But you know, among all of these photos, one shocked me....

When I saw that you’d logged in again, Ayda, my heart leapt with joy several times.
I’d been wondering from time to time whether you were keeping well.

It feels different from the seas we have here in Japan—it gave me this strange,
mysterious feeling, almost like a shiver down my spine....

We do not know each other much but each time we collide, I feel a bit blessed.
I am happy to realise, that I 'touch' you. You are open for what I do, Tomoyo....

I am honored and blessed to have a friend like you,...

Oh no, Ayda ... the honour is definitely all mine.

In this day and age,

it’s important that we communicate as much as possible and really share
something in the process. This brings a little light to those in war-torn areas,
and reminds us, who have so far been spared, that life can look very
different indeed.

The fact that I can and am allowed to touch people’s hearts with my ART
fills me with peace. Ultimately, this has always been my approach anyway.
Peace and Health are the most important aspects of our lives...

THANK YOU 🙂

Scotland 2009-2010 -- PART-5

___________________________________________________________________NEW EXHIBITION_____

One of the defining characteristics of our existence is probably the quest
for recognition. We want our lives to be acknowledged and for someone
to take notice of them. Presumably, this desire runs even deeper in most
of the artists. I feel blessed being allowed to show my work here.... 🙂

Of course, this can lead to arrogance and egocentricity. Sometimes,
however, something wonderful emerges from this desire, and people
open themselves up to the beauty and wonder of human existence.

Well, Scotland was, in many ways, a revelation for me.

Please share your feeling and thoughts,
leave a comment id you like....

Most of all ... ENJOY

Well, it’s a blessing for human beings to express themselves and present their feelings through their art. One’s soul gets calm and relax by sharing their feelings, sadness and happiness with others. Not everyone has this opportunity in this world. In fact, this helps not only the artists themselves, but also the audiences. People who see a work of an artist also can reveal their own feelings and reduce the tension inside them by talking about the work, as I do. Whenever I see an artistic performance of any type, I get relaxed and happy inside by both enjoying it and talking about it.

Yes, a problem of egocentricity may arise, but it can be controlled if the artist wants to. But complements also can lead to more self confidence and more desire and inspiration for the future works.

These works here make me want to be in the places captured in the photos. Just talking about them is not enough. I can imagine myself breathing in these places and smiling when feeling the breeze on my face or hearing the sound of stones under my feet while walking.

I want to sit in the cave-like spot and look at the world from my SAFE place when nobody can hurt me or break my heart.

Also the first photo (the one with a reddish sky) reminds me of eternity… nowhere…nobody…no time… free from EVERYTHING...

Michael, many thanks for this nice opportunity after a long day in this chaotic world…

Love and Light

Ayda

Michael,

Ayda already posted a lot that also moves me,

BUT
I find it almost unbearable to see those pictures.
I realise my cage, my boundaries
I don`t want to be soothed by them, the pictures,
but realise the symbiosis with nature.

Nature is perfect!
c.

In fact, this helps not only the artists themselves, but also the audiences....

You have the soul of an artist, Ayda. If it were any other way, you could never find such words...

I find it almost unbearable to see those pictures....

Any Artist likes to move and lighten up something. I did my job, I guess.... 🙂

Thank You Both

So much peace in these photos
and beautiful nature - mystic!

I would like to go there immediatly!

Cliffs... ocean.. green mosses... a beautiful mixture of softness, strenght and the result : stay "green". The photo should be named "Resilience", which is the only way to get along with this life.

Thank you Michael!🙏🌷

So much peace in these photos ... beautiful nature -- mystic!

"Resilience", which is the only way to get along with this life.

If we live long enough, universe will teach us everything, Ayda 🙂

Your 32 photos of Scottland are like therapy.
They touch the deepest inside of me.
I guess I wouldn`t find that by
travelling to Scottland.

Like therapy....

Glad you liked it, Christine.... 🙂

Scotland 2009-2010

Every journey comes to an end eventually.

The Scotland exhibition was the most elaborate one yet and
has now been running for almost two weeks. It will come to
an end shortly, but... I’m already preparing a new one.

THANK YOU
