New Opportunities
I designed and just added a new subject to my Christmas cards collection and titled it “New opportunities”. Have a look at the full collection and details in the boutique.
Wishing that the new year may bring new opportunities to everyone.

Easter week and the tulips in the garden
“I love tulips better than any other Spring flower; they are the embodiment of alert cheerfulness and tidy grace, and next to a hyacinth look like a wholesome, freshly tubbed young girl beside a stout lady whose every movement weighs down the air with patchouli. Their faint, delicate scent is refinement itself; and is there anything in the world more charming than the sprightly way they hold up their little faces to the sun. I have heard them called bold and flaunting, but to me they seem modest grace itself, only always on the alert to enjoy life as much as they can and not be afraid of looking the sun or anything else above them in the face.”
― Elizabeth von Arnim, Elizabeth and her German Garden

New wings
Brushes, watercolors and the new year
Here we go. On a Winter Sunday afternoon of the new year 2023, we start sketching and paiting again. Tulips and gerberas are among the preferred floral subjects. Dip the brush in watercolors and then create, leaving light traces of color on the cotton paper. New ideas come in the air and we are here to wish everybody marvellous time filled with art.

A green terrace or a bright workplace with the sky for roof?
Can you tell, at Winter time, a bright green terrace with the sky for roof, a cozy place for enjoying gardening, planting new seeds and at-any-time-of-the-day-coffee-pause room, might turn to be a good workplace for developping ideas like a small gym where to train your mind and run your projects?
Enjoy a new February week, everybody☕

Focus on Christmas candles
Around a small chocolate praline
From my photography archive –
Once I took the chance to photograph a small chocolate delicacy, the one in the picture above and, before making the photography session, I wondered:
- What ingredients are there in it?
- How does it taste?
- What is the process to make this small delicacy?
- Is it an artisan or industrial product?
Here it is your chocolate praline. Is it inviting for a taste? Why? What is your opinion after having a taste of it?

The Sun in the Tomatoes
It’s gonna be the weekend again. Let’s get pampered with a a good tomato soup. By the way, this drawing of mines, which has a couple of plumpy tomatoes in a basket as subject (cm 35 x cm 25), could be an idea to frame for the kitchen wall. For more details, please check in the boutique. Enjoy the weekend, everybody and stay safe <3
When September comes
A cosy view out there
“The only prospect which is really desirable or delightful, is that from the window of the breakfast-room […] where we meet the first light of the dewy day, the first breath of the morning air, the first glance of gentle eyes; to which we descend in the very spring and elasticity of mental renovation and bodily energy, in the gathering up of our spirit for the new day, in the flush of our awakening from the darkness and the mystery of faint and inactive dreaming, in the resurrection from our daily grave, in the first tremulous sensation of the beauty of our being, in the most glorious perception of the lightning of our life; there, indeed, our expatiation of spirit, when it meets the pulse of outward sound and joy, the voice of bird and breeze and billow, does demand some power of liberty, some space for its going forth into the morning, some freedom of intercourse with the lovely and limitless energy of creature and creation.”
― John Ruskin, The Poetry Of Architecture: Or, The Architecture Of The Nations Of Europe Considered In Its Association With Natural Scenery And National Character
Enjoy the weekend, everybody! <3

Natural light
In my sketchbook an elegant urban lamp and its wrought ironed swirls is the subject of my drawing on this Saturday at the end of May. Indeed, these are the days natural light stays with us longer and longer and if you look up to the sky, perhaps you will see also little swallows fly and cheerfully play ring-a-ring-a-roses. Wishing everybody a good Sunday and be safe!

En trevlig helg
Alles Liebe zum Vatertag
Im Garten
Der Frühling
Die Sonne glänzt, es blühen die Gefilde,
Die Tage kommen blütenreich und milde,
Der Abend blüht hinzu, und helle Tage gehen
Vom Himmel abwärts, wo die Tag entstehen.
Das Jahr erscheint mit seinen Zeiten
Wie eine Pracht, wo Feste sich verbreiten,
Der Menschen Tätigkeit beginnt mit neuem Ziele,
So sind die Zeichen in der Welt, der Wunder viele. Friedrich Hölderlin
Ein gutes Wochenende euch allen <3

Hibiscus flowers in January
“I was for a while troubled with the haunting fear that if I handled the flower freely its bloom would fade—the sweet charm of freshness would leave it. I did not know then that it was no transitory blossom, but rather the radiant resemblance of one, cut in an indestructible gem.”
― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Sketching a Reindeer on the Hill
“Therefore am I still / A lover of the meadows and the woods, / And mountains; and of all that we behold / From this green earth; of all the mighty world / Of eye and ear, both what they half create / And what perceive; well pleased to recognize / In nature and the language of the sense, / The anchor of my purest thoughts, the nurse/ The guide, the guardian of my heart, and soul / Of all my moral being.” ― William Wordsworth
Wishing a good weekend to everybody!

When we build … let it not be for present delights nor for present use alone. Let it be such work as our descendants will thank us for, and let us think … that a time is to come when these stones will be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say as they look upon the labor, and the wrought substance of them, See! This our fathers did for us! – John Ruskin

A fork is expression of the journey that goes from history to art, through gastronomy. So, the object of narration is also means of encounter among cultures, symphonies of sounds and natural light.
Eine Gabel ist Ausdruck der Reise von der Geschichte, über die Gastronomie, bis zur Kunst. So, ist das Objekt der Erzählung auch Mittel der Begegnung aus Kulturen, Sinfonien von Klängen und natürlichem Licht.

A cute little wise squirrel in a rapeseed field
March just began and we started the weekend by painting a cute little wise squirrel. He sits peacefully on a log of tree in a field of rapeseed. Indeed, even though he looks in a relaxed mood for enjoying the weekend, he seems very interested in the subject of his reading. Very inspiring, isn’t he? <3

Decor your Christmas table with a bouquet of red peppers.
Christmas is in the air and we are thinking about welcoming family and friends in our homes, around the table, enjoying soft atmospheres, pleasant conversations and delicious food. At this proper, have you alreday thought about particular table decorations for the special occasion? Any detail can work to make a great success of your dinner or lunch with your guests.
Nature is always a fantastic source of inspiration and few, genuine elements can decor the table with simplicity and elegance. During this third Advent, I enjoyed carving hearts of different sizes from pulpy red peppers. It took me only few minutes. Then, I made little sticks of carrot (about 4 cm each), in order to shape the pistil, and cut round discs of carrot. I used long toothpicks for fixing the hearts of sweet red pepper to a floral foam: a little carrot disc was to secure on the back side of the heart, while the little stick took place on the center of the right side of the heart. Indeed, as the work went on, the little hearts of red pepper looked like beautiful flowers of Anthuriums. I finished by adding different shades of green all around the bouquet, a couple of branches of Aquifoliaceae and fixed a candle in the middle of the decoration. I hope you like the floral idea for your Christmas table and you will enjoy trying to make your own bouquet with sweet red peppers.
