Sunset Memories
-Sheree Ann Kratmann Indiongco
To find a place
Where we could talk
You held my hands
And we start to walk
I looked around
You weren’t there
I must have been blinded
This dream, I must spare
Golden rays like a subtle touch
Memories keep coming back
To you I care this much
With hope, this must be good luck
Memories of the ocean:
Beautifully hand-painted by Roksana Gabrielova
The round and smooth hand-painted stones from the ocean bring joy and spark motivation to anyone who looks at them.
In the spring of 2024, I met Roksana. We were colleagues for a short while at a clothing store in Ringsted. She is a kind-hearted person who has a deep connection with the world, in which she expresses her thoughts through art. Today, we’ll learn about her artworks, how she started, and why being kind to others, ourselves and our environment is important.
“I had a period in my life where I started painting on stones because I was in the Canary Islands for some time and I got inspired by seeing these nice rocks on the beach, all rounded and smooth, so I started to paint on them, a thousand of them until it almost became a full-time job 🙂 “. -Roksana Gabrielova
Hardwork, Commitment and Patience
“The Buddha gives me strength to stay focus and centered in my own beliefs, no matter what the situation of life, and the negative experiences we have sometimes, which the black snake in this picture represents.”. -Roksana Gabrielova
Painting on old LP’s, freely available surfaces and canvass
The people I encounter are particularly well-versed in what they do and they embrace their talents and imperfections. They try their best to understand that the process of achieving something beautiful requires a sense of commitment.
Commitment
“Water is older than the planet and we are also water, so we carry the history and wisdom of the universe“.
-Roksana G.
It takes patience to complete a good project.
