I just don't sweat the small stuff !! I try to live life at it's fullest and enjoy the little things. I don't care about credit cards anymore. I cut them all up before I left, except for one that I use when I go back home to shop till I drop :))
The other thing I love about living here is that it's more laid back and I get to go out more often. There are hundreds of little cafes in my neighborhood. Going out for coffee is a favorite pass time here! No mater what time it is, all the cafes are full of people!
I think that my paintings reflect this changed person!!
Harry was here on his monthly visit from Libya and all I had time for, was to finish two pages in my journal. I've been obsessed with fish lately; eating them and painting them! so this is what I made.
What beautiful art Joanna- these journal pages certainly represent your happiness and joy of living in Athens (such a beautiful place) ! I love the playful images and how they depict an unstressed view of life even in a busy city.
ReplyDeleteI love your flying fish Joanna; and oh do I wish I was there where it is warm and sunny and lovely little cafes--it sounds just fabulous!!!
ReplyDeleteIt does--it sounds like being on vacation all the time, and you can tell by your fun artwork!!
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful ... such a wonderful life and it shows!
ReplyDeleteoh wow!!! these pieces are fantastic!!! I love the details and your colour choices!!!
ReplyDeleteJoanna, you AMAZE me every time I look at your blog. Your art is so happy and colorful and fun. Both those pages would make nice canvas art (hint hint) I noticed that people oversees like to park on sidewalks, people in Germany do it also!!
ReplyDeleteWhow Joanna, what a incredible pieces of art.
ReplyDeleteI love the very nice flying fish and......I love your country!! Every day I look the weather forcast in Crete and I hope it's hollidaytime time!!!
Gorgeous colors, Joanna. You can bask in your warm weather today and laugh at us back here in VA who have 13" of snow on everything and 19° F with a wind chill of around 6°.
ReplyDeleteLove your fish and your bright colors. Thanks for the visit to my blog.
What a brilliant vibrant artwork, dear Joanna! Fantastic colours and design.
ReplyDeleteI say hooray for Greece if it did, indeed, brighten your colour palette. Your paintings are superb - absolutely scrumptious.
