Nostalgia

Decades ago I met a clown called Hanski. He was a really nice guy (maybe I did fall in love with him a little...*lol*). I've kept the photo of him in a box, so the photo has suffered quite a lot during the times but I don't need a photo to remember how nice time we had talking and laughing! When the circus left the town we didn't meet anymore, ever. Sometimes it feels so good to go back to those times in thoughts - I'd never want to be young again though! Too hard to be young... I hope though that I never forget the great people in my life, any of them. Painted with oils on stretched canvas sized 38 x 46 cm (about 14 by 18 inches).

Fabulous painting, wonderful colours. I agree, we should remember the wonderful people and those times we had and look back with joy, not regret. It's wonderful to know that someone else does that!
