In Which I talk a bit over my clock of christmas celebration and some other topic(s)

Good morning, my friend! How are you, today? How was your week, and so on? As for me, I am okay. The weather is heating up, certainly summer is on its way. I miss the colder days of winter already. There is the good side of the upcoming changing of seasons, though, and that is the fact that this also means therr will be the height of Christmas, soon!  You know, I say height because I do my best to start the season as early as I can. I may try and have a Midmas around June-July. Started this experiment in 2025, and I love the idea, but alas, I did not go too far with it this 2026, because I was a bit sad and stressed out over college bureocracy and other woes, not in the mood, and since it was more optional, I did some image searching on Pinterest and Pexel for some nice wallpapers. As with some places in the world, I am more emphatic on it around September, but Loosely, it depends on my energy levels.

Art of the Week! In which we talk about Expectations!

Hello everyone! Happy Saturday to you and good Afternoon! How are you today and how are things going? As usual, I wish you the best and hope all is well! How is the weather where you are? I hope things are fresh and soft, as here the sun is cooking everything it can touches! I'm having to be careful not to struggle too much indeed. Wish the weather could be fresher, like the painting I'm about to share, that sounds filled with longing and desire, here we have Expectations by Sir Lawrence Alma Tadelma.



I saw this painting and thought it could be a really good one to share, as I love it so much, by Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, the level of details is insane, as you can feel the wind on her hair, the coldness of the sea and of the stone. The girl here, sitting in the marble sofa, waits for her love, that comes from the ocean, flowers come to comfort her, even if she’s full of hope. Sounds like a wonderful place to wait for your loved one indeed. On this scenario fit for Rome or Carthage. It's also amazing how her dress fits the landscape and the sofa, complimenting it. I shared it on my Instagram a while ago with a caption similar to this one, but I made some changes here so I could share it on the blog. I hope the wind is fresh for her, and I hope her loved one may come, and the sun is gentle also.
There's a lot I want to do today, make some drawings, writing on the blog, I havent drawn properly for a while now, and this sucks, hopefully that will change soon when I'll make new drawings that I'll be satisfied about, it is a process indeed... I also want to enjoy my new laptop though, so is the struggle to keep everything balanced!
Well, this is it for today, just this painting by this amazing artist! Wish you the best dear reader, and you are the best! See you again next time, have an excellent weekend.
