Blue Thistle Painting

Painting of Blue Thristle on the meadow is part of collection "Portraits of maedow" The inspiration for these paintings is what cannot be seen in them and what we often forget - soil. Healthy and regenerating soil is the basis of a healthy ecosystem, of which we are also a part. The meadow community, which manifests itself in its beauty in flowers, is a reflection of the soil from which it grows. Meadow annual flowers scatter their seeds with the wind and will only grow where they have good conditions. Therefore, the image of a beautiful and multispecies meadow is a reflection of a good foundation that draws from the soil. This relationship, like none in nature, is not only one-way. Plants also contribute to soil regeneration. This image is also a metaphor for ourselves, whether from the point of view of physical or psychological prosperity. We can only grow in places where we have good conditions. However, when they are not here, we must contribute to their creation. Depending on healthy soil, we are not very different from plants, and we should work systematically to restore its health.
