Praying for Rain - original painting

in #art6 years ago

"Praying for Rain" 2018, acrylic on canvas, 135 x 90cm.

Hi friends, I would like to share with you my painting from September,
when I participated in the art colony "Pigmalion". The art colony was held in the village Tamnjanica on Suva planina (Dry mountain) in southern Serbia.

The painting symbolically represents the Old Slavic ritual which still exists in some parts of the Balkan Peninsula. The goal of the ritual is to cause rain during the dry summer months. In order to achieve this, young women and girls dance and sing songs to encourage the gods to let rain.

Enjoy and thank you for your support 😊

"Molitva za Kišu" 2018, akril na platnu, 135 x 90cm.

Zdravo prijatelji, hteo bih sa vama da podelim moju sliku iz Septembra kada sam učestvovao na likovnoj koloniji "Pigmalion". Likovna kolonija je održana u selu Tamnjanica na Suvoj planini u južnom delu Srbije.

Slika simbolično predstavlja staroslovenski običaj koji još uvek postoji u nekim delovima Balkanskog poluostrva. Cilj rituala je prizivanje kiše tokom sušnih letnjih meseci. Da bi se to postiglo, mlade žene i devojke su plesale i pevale pesme ne bi li umolile bogove da puste kišu.

Uživajte i hvala vam na podršci 😊

Zdravo Bobane, Vaše slike su divne i zaista zaslužuju više pažnje i više glasova. Ipak, mislim da je razlog za to što ne dobijate mnogo glasova taj što niste mnogo aktivni. Zato Vas ohrabrujem da se više ukljućite u zajednice, da više komentarišete drugim umetnicima i da malo češće postavljate svoje sadržaje. Ne moraju sve biti novi radovi, možete nam prikazati i stare, a povremeno nas iznenaditi nekim novim radom. Sigurna sam da će brojne zajednice znati to da cene. Pozdrav.

Zdravo Ana, hvala ti na lepim rečima! Potrudiću se koliko je moguće. Pozdrav 😊
