Thinking of a pair, I think of couples of a different kind.

| Swans at the Raumanmeri sea a year ago. |

| The pair, the couple of the summer 2011, the wedding of our son and his fiancee |
In my art I often tend to express solitude;
there are only a few pairs to be found

VastaaPoistaso, so beautiful!
I love your use of colors
like with the duck and dove
and the firm brushstroke
and feel connected to express solitude
heartwarming post
thank you
I will have to work on mine ;^)
What a great theme! And I love how you post about it- the swans and that lovely picture of your son and his wife. And I especially love the painting of the duck and dove, the relationship of the two. you speak of solitude and I think yes it's something we long for...but are we ever really alone?

VastaaPoistakiitos kun jaoit♥
for some reason i am moved by the sight of that couple of swans. they are gracious. ..
VastaaPoistai relate to the solitude too.
and there's movement in that duck, no actually dove.
i think. ;)))

Dear Leena,
VastaaPoistaI like your swans a lot... including the human ones, your son and his wife, fly high.
I can't find solitude in your paintings and photos... I can find relationsship, interval and supplement (and much more).
Connection. Wisdom (a special female wisdom).
Meet, Carborundum... love it!
x Ariane.
Hi Leena
VastaaPoistaa really poignant set of images I like the connection between the swans and the wedding photo.
Nocturne is so 'swanlike' too in form.
Your paintings are really wonderful the ducks so textured and then my favourite
meet carborumdum.......(sigh)
really nice work Leena
cheers Helen :)
Kaunista!

VastaaPoistaKiitos / thank you for your nice, sweet comments, dear friends. I really enjoyed this theme, it made me wonder, love Leena
VastaaPoistaVery sweet pair with their arms together looking like they were about to take off and fly.
VastaaPoistaHave you seen how when two swans are beak to beak their beaks, necks, and chests form a heart? Sigh.
I like your swans too. They are so beautiful, but your other pairs also, of course.And especially your duck and dove, your coulour palette is so alive!
