Mystical Multitude is a Winner for Untwine Australia #newbeginnings

Mystical Multitude – Original Watercolor Graphite ©Carolina Russo

Hello friends,
I hope you all had great Holidays with family and loved ones. The 2018 is here!

A new year is a fresh start for a new beginning, hope and realization of dreams, may the beginning of this year fill you with love, inspiration and new strength to succeed in what you love.

Today I have a wonderful news!
I am so happy and honored to announce that I am one of the six “Winners” chosen by UntwineAustralia participating to their first word prompt Contest for 2018 @untwine.australia #newbeginnings  I have participated on Instagram posting my Watercolor – Graphite painting “Mystical Multitude”.
This Contest was open to writers, artists and photographers, inspired by the combination of Words with Images. I love to write Poetry, Haiku and Short Stories when they are whispered to my soul. As a Visual Artist this time I decided to only post my painting as the speaking image. In art often you no need words the painting will speak to your soul and you will read what you feel into it.

Mystical Multitude
 this is my meaning behind the painting, is inspired by how our emotions are flowing together in our reality, how feelings can transport us in many directions and how much we emotionally change. This portrait shows three different faces of women, but in a mystical and dreamy way it represents one person, the same woman in different moments and emotional state of her life, going through, transformation and changes”.

I felt that this painting was perfect to visually  illustrate the prompt word “New Beginnings” and I am so happy that Untwine Australia like it too! ❤

Thank You!

Friends

AMONG Bloggership aka “Friendship”!

 

Today I am going to share something very nice happening tomorrow…

I started to be active on my Blog the end of March 2015 about seven Months ago! As today I can say that my journeys here have been great and lead me to beautiful things otherwise impossible! I love the opportunity to express myself freely and in the way I want, this is my special place to be ME. And most of all I love to share my Art and Creativity with YOU and with the World.

Because the existence of yesterdayafter.com I came across many beautiful souls of every kind. WordPress Community is a great place of the Blogosphere, thank you all so very much, for being so supportive and encouraging day after day…the number of Followers is growing very fast and I amso honored by all of you.

Tomorrow is a Special Day…

I will have an exciting meeting with some special souls I came across here!
My dear friend Erika Kind is visiting USA from Europe and happen to be visiting her loved California she invited me to meet her. We have been always saying from the beginning we started to follow each other how beautiful would be to meet in person one day and here we are we will have the magical opportunity to finally meet tomorrow!

We are four of us Erika Kind, Marissa Bergen, Corinne and me.

Beautiful things happen
I am sure would be great time!!!

Joanne had a beautiful post about her travelling experience around Europe and to Venice in Italy
she found  that my watercolor painting was just visually what she has seen, her post was My place in time…
I was so happy to know that my Art gave such emotion, bringing back beautiful memories
of her time spent in Venice. I found it to be a very special way for us to connect here.
I love her work, and I am very happy that we crossed paths and that in a way I can support her journey.
