Description
"In a swing".
One of the three self-portraits that are inspired by myths or fairytale-like atmosphere.
The theme for this one is sky. To me the sky is a fascinating element, because it always looks different depending on the time of day and weather conditions. But especially starry night sky is a beautiful sight.
I also wanted to create a strong dreamlike and surreal atmosphere on this one, that's why there is also a swing hanging on the sky. I wanted to bring also my own favourite colour - which is violet - in this painting. By chance the violet colour symbolizes creativity and quality of being artistic as well, so at the same time the colour choice represents my personality too.
