Always Following the Sun...

Self - Portrait ,myself in about 20 years from today...A lot of times we're thinking...where we shall be in about 20 years from now...What shall we do..look like...etc.Well,no one can really predict the future ...And the choice is always in our hands.Personally I don't too much think of the future,I prefer to live the way,that will lead naturally,to how my life should look like.TO LIVE LIFE,Each day...to try to enjoy,what I have at this moment of my life,and to believe,that my life will be developed into the right place,in a natural way...Some processes of life can take time...sometimes even all LIFE,Long.I hope that,when my life will be ended,I will know that I lived them to the fullness ,loyal to my inner truth. This is,maybe the real first time that i tried to paint my self - portrait...and actually the number of painted portraits,i did,all my life...you can count on one hand's fingers.The work below,is to sense the inspiration comes from all over.Finished to work on it ,NOVEMBER 15,06.The original photo of myself taken by myself,could be seen on my portfolio,in Sub - Gallery:People/portrait,myself the artist.---To be continued,Because this is only the beginning...........The title of this portrait is taken from Hebrew song - "Eternally/Forever following the Sun,eternally following the light ..The Sun is writing my day...and my heart is a bird..... ",is a song from the 80's,that my son ,Yarin sing a lot lately,actually everyday.8888888888888888888888888888 This is my last post until i'll come back from my vacation.Thanks for viewing and commenting,Have yourself a gorgeous weekend.Love ,Nira
