Summertime is Usually Happy Time

       Summertime is usually happy time for me and I think not only for me because of several reasons. First of all in my area weather is just best for this time of year. One can walk slowly near the sea as long as wish or swim in very clean azure blue sea. In the summer , school year is finish and children are free almost three months . Most of workers like to have their vocations during summer too.
     My country, or better to say my town is full of tourists from all the world  and they are very colorful . One can heard many different languages every few steps. They shooting photos , buying souvenirs , watching around... I like to see them . It's interesting that any time at street some of them asking me for way or something else . Even if I don't know how to explain what they need I try to do it somehow.

     In the summer people look happier . Maybe because of sunny or light clothes . I feel good in this time of year and daily problems are less heavy than in the winter. I like summer !

     Everywhere in the town you can see interesting performances from strangers and from our children or grown ones . Also music is on the every corner . During summertime my town breathe on some special way .

Great Surprise

   Last few days my son was busy with our comp every time when I wanted to surf. So I let it be . Today I started with some other things and than I just wanted to write something. At my great surprise I find out several more followers I got! Really great surprise to me. I have many followers at Facebook and Twitter as well but not very much at my blog. Seems to me like people are not interesting in reading nothing more than two sentences and that 's it . Maybe I have wrong . By the way I was sure that when I mention my blogs few times , not need to repeat it constantly.
    Anyhow I write my blogs with own pleasure but followers keep you going on . I am very thankful to every one who follow my sites. I know that every topic is not interesting for everybody and we all have less and less time to spent in front of comp.
    We forget how nice is to slow down even from time to time ! When I walk on the street people are in hurry like crazy. Nobody walk slowly as it was before normally , when you go outside with children or with your dog. I keep thinking where they hurry? Why ? If they come one or five minutes earlier at their destination what will happen ? I like to walk and I like to walk from leg to leg , enjoying to look around me , to take glaze at sky , trees , houses and faces ... Walking and thinking is great . On this way I get inspiration for my Paintings too. Every night I walk around with my dog. It become kind of ritual and I like it very much.

    If I have heavy day I am happy that it's over and I say to myself : tomorrow is a new day, new happiness... So my dear try to slow down walking around for hour or more and you'll feel much better than before. Just try it.  Nothing to pay for it . And don't forget to keep smiling !

   

SEA IN MY HEART

  

     
       I live at Adriatic coast . I love Sea . Above is one of my Paintings . Several years ago when I was far away from seaside I make this one Paintings. I call it - Nostalgia - because I miss the sea around me. In my town I can see the Sea any time even from my home window. I walk with my dog near the Sea when is rainy day , sunny , windy , at night time too. Every time Sea is nice ,  different , colorful and inspiration for me.
      Walking and watching the Sea I used to think of so many different topics . I like night time walk much more than daily. At night is quietly and there are nights that me and my dog are alone near the sea. My dog like the sea as much as me I think.
      Many of my Paintings I make on my mind first , walking slowly , watching waves , moon light , sky... I remember one story which happen many years ago in Bruxelles capital of Belgium. One very dear woman liked my Paintings and she often visited me in my home there. I liked her too. From time to time I was homesick. It was one of that occasion and I described her beauty of sunshine at sea and invited her to spent holidays in my house near the sea.At my great surprise she told me that it's not for her , because she doesn't like sea at all. I couldn't believe my own ears ! Till that time I was sure how everyone like to walk near sea , to look beauty of different blue colors between sky and sea ....

      For me only nature is perfect . I like sunny days more than rainy days. Spring and summer I prefer than autumn and winter but it's nice to have all four seasons . Sea is beautiful always and for me special as I wrote before I love sea.

Sitting , Thinking , Art , Limits ...

    This moment I'm not sure which title to write  because I feel that topic will change . It's same with my Paintings. Many times I started with one idea and during work change absolutely everything. I don't like limits and in any kind of Art there are no limits. Of course that luck of money can forced you to buy smaller canvas , but it's not reason for limits.
    I intended in one discussion about limits in abstract art. According my mind people limited themselves where they need limits (money , drink , smoke etc. ) and where limits are not necessary at all . Art is Art , because one must be talented and headstrong to live as artist and  for art . I know many artists who give up fight and become Professor for Art with regular monthly payment. They decided to limited themselves . Are they happy with that kind of life or not that's the question.
   We are all different . Somebody can give up their own dreams , hopes and wishes . Life is not easy. My mother used to tell me during my growing how life is daily fight . I didn't understand why because as child problems are quite different and Mom or Dad would solved it for you . Many years later I find out that my mother was right.
   I think that everybody have something what make us different from each other. I have brother. He is few years older than me. We grown up in same condition , same parents , same primary school we intended , anyway , we have nothing in common.... I have two grown sons and they are also very different persons. For example : one is very pedant , other not ... My older son love drums , younger prefer guitar to play. They have different character too.

   During my life I've contacted many people. Some of them limited themselves in every possible way and when I met them I usually  say just hello kept my way. Nothing to speak about with them . Also I met open minded people with whom I have talked about many topics .

   According my mind life have plenty limits and some limits must be , but Art can't be limited ! If somebody think different than please explain to me . Anyhow I think like this .

Easter Eggs On My Way

  Every year I used to make plenty unique Easter eggs. Some of them I give as present to my family, friends and my children friends.They are always different from year to year, even I used not same type of colours. Anyhow that eggs could last for many years because I first empty them. Next I fix that hole and started with colours. It must dry and I decorated it. For make children happy I paint funny faces or all short story on it.There are rabbits , chickens ,butterfly , flowers , trees ... Of course I have other coloured  Easter eggs which we eat when we knock them with each other. That ones I did with healthy colours .

  Easter is soon and this time I will decorated them again on my own way. I don't know how many I make till this Easter but surely hundred or more and never two was the same. I snapped pictures of eggs which was not so nice to give it as present ( according my mind) so it remain in my home. Wishing you all happy Easter!Bless you evermore! Sannitta

Night in Museums

       In my town ones at year there are "Night in Museums" when you can visit every Museum, Gallery and Exhibitions for free during one o'clock at night. Many citizens come out from their homes that night. It was about two weeks ago and weather was cold but nice.I am sure for many it was first time to visit some of Museums. Parents with their children, youth and oldest were passing by me... Somebody was in hurry because they wanted to go from Gallery to Museum but more than three they couldn't visit anyway. Some our Museums are in the center of a town , others are not.I met many faces which I hardly meet somewhere else. We will meet probably next year at " Night in Museum".

     I am involved in art all my life and Gallery's, Exhibitions & Museums are part of my life and I like from time to time visit all this in my town... I find interesting every time something. Of course, when I travel for me is normally to visit as much as it is possible from Museums there.But not for other people! I find out that there are persons who never were in the Theater in their own  town ! Not in any Museums ! Never seen any Exhibitions ! Even price for tickets are symbolical and it's not because of price I'm sure , but maybe not habits or...?

    It's nice idea for this "Night in Museums" and I wish it  more than once at year ! I remember many smile faces that night . Beauty is beauty and where is so nice for eyes and soul than in the such a places.

Why You Should Care For Others

   The world we are living is a shared world. We share resources that we need for our life. No one can live alone. We need each other very much. God made us to live and grow together. We will be happier and fulfilled if we can throw our self centered thoughts.
If we choose a win-win approach for every situation we face, and get whatever we want by not using others, we can live a better life. The success of others makes us more successful.
Let us take an example of doing business. This principle applies there highly. First of all, try everything you can to see a satisfied customer. Help them in whatever way you can. Even if you can not solve their problems, show them that you care for them. This is called building positive relationship. People love the one who loves and cares for them. This is a win-win approach which results in success for both parties; your customers and your business.
You can take whatever part of your life, work, family, social life... everything. You will be more successful if you only help others to be successful. By success what I mean here is not about financial success only. Rather I mean all rounded success.
There are people who have millions of dollars and do not own happiness, satisfaction, personal character, positive influence on others. I do not consider this as success. Money is not the only thing we need in life.

  However, the definition of success here is that of the all rounded one; with personal character, happiness and satisfaction, financial freedom, in general achievement of goals. You only get this only through a win-win approach. Help others to succeed and you will be successful. That is why you should care for others. By Hanna Shiferaw  

Christmas

Christmas is almost here. I can't believe how fast it come for me every year. Maybe I have so many work to do and time fly away too fast ... First of all I want to clean up my house and discard all unnecessary and too old things . For example shoes are not worn , newspapers and magazines , old clothes etc... When I finish this what take days , than come up question about Christmas tree ; natural or not , new one or from last year, decoration with some new pieces or all in one colour ...When my boys was younger my biggest problem was to hide presents from them before I put it under the tree. Even then it was always some days before Christmas and they tried to found out what was in the boxes. They usually asked me if they can see only one present . There were many funny moments with presents. Sometimes I make big box for small toy in it and wrap it very well.They remember all life happiness of childhood . Me too ! I think everybody remember childhood as best time in life , because there are somebody who keep you safe and happy . Not only at Christmas we are extremely happy but Christmas is full of happiness for all Christians . Especially for children ' s perception ! In recent years people are trying to make happy children without parents and poor children in the world what is nice ! Our duty is to make children as happy as it is possible ! Marry Christmas to everyone!!!
