Petrykivka April’s

I want to tell you how this painting was created.
I will say right away that it is not yet complete.
To begin with, I had a month to paint Petrykivka.
But a lot of things did not work out and start to spread.
I drew a big painting for the past exhibition, I drew a few small paintings in an abstract style, made out my hand-made card- invitations, did hand-made crafts for the future exhibition.
But before it, before Petyrkivka, did not reach.
And now one day, I just forced myself to take a pencil and sit in front of the canvas.
1.What will it be? Will it be a cock, a bird or a flower?
Decided that there will be a flower.
2.What color will the background be?
Decided that it would be white.
3. What color will the flowers be?
Decided that there will be yellow with a beautiful  red shade.
4. What color will the foliage?
Then I decided to play and make the leaves red, yellow, green and straw

And started.

First drew the first flower.
It should be lower and bigger than the next ones.
So I drew it in the middle of the canvas. A little higher, I drew a smaller size of two flowers with a direction in different way.
This gives to painting the development.
And in the very top painted two together a small flower.
Below added foliage.
So the basis of the picture was created.
I left it to dry for a week.

The second stage I drew all the flowers to create a canvas.
In flowers, I selected veins and shaded leaves.
I did the same with the leaves.
Between the leaves and flowers, I drew stems to make the flowers intertwined.

Again gave painting to lie for a week.
I picked up and outlined new foliage and stems.
I love that the canvas is all covered with flowers.
Now I have painted the veins on flowers and foliage.
Strokes made the direction of the leaves and the stems.
Now again with greasy strokes, blocked in some places the direction of the stems.


Here is what I drawing ))

I did not see such a real Christmas for a long time.
Maybe when I was little
girl as small as my granddaughter.
During two days of snowing the street is closed.
When the first cyclone was on,I clear my car from snow.
For the second cyclone, my granddaughter and I simply closed in the house and both of us had a real evening of a fairy tale.

My white car merged with snow and it was just a big ball of snow.
Outside home is incredibly beautiful and incredibly cold at the same time.

So we sat down together in the house, lit the lights on the tree and read fairy tales, stories in Russian and English
.

We are discovered together for ourselves a real holiday of such a beautiful evening.
It’s a very warm feeling when near you there is an energetic twinkle that all the time ,,wants,,.
Wants to read, wants to eat, wants to play, wants to stop me.

I am very happy to see this little bundle of happiness that grows in front of the eyes and is open to the  her world.
I am pleased to observe this.
I see myself, when I’m little, sitting at my grandmother on knees and reading books.
I do not remember myself like that, but parents was told that I was very stubborn, hard and demanding.
I just smile, how wonderful it is, to grow like this.

The lack of knowledge forces the child to demand them.
Sometimes the child asks to do something that she already knows how, but with the hands of the parent.
And it’s interesting and beautiful.
We drew together, played games, prepared to eat together.
