I paint this after a marvelous day in Black Forest. It was really a beautiful like you have sometimes. It means a lot for me. We walk around a tiny lake in the pine trees shadows. The air was warm. All smelled good. The overview was just stunning. There is a chapel. Small. Modern. Cosy. Inside St Michael with his flaming sword, feet on the devil, and I feel feet on all bad. I feel also a new strength. I just go out very hard times with my heart illness. It was the first time in months I feel something new filling me. Something which is better than my PTSD ( as all people with severe degenerating chronic illness know this) Believe me or not, I think sometimes bigger than you bring you help. So this painting is an ex-voto. An ex-voto to the archangel but also to the tiny lake . I know I need to express this . I don’t know if you can understand, it seems weird, and that’s okay. Perhaps one day I will take you here through guided meditation ... do you like this idea ? Stay safe, never forget that you are stronger than you think even when life looks like a repetitive cycle. And there is always a power upon you and your destiny. . . . . #exvoto #lake #summer #summervibes #grace #blessings #nature #ancientpowers #life #painting #visionnaire #visionnaryart #folkart #chronicillness #heartfailurefighter #heartfailure #chd #spoonie #outsiderart #artbrut #galeriepollemetais #minamond #naifnoir (à Mummelsee) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGSv1DgC6cV/?igshid=j30f60a8stn4
