The cosmos. A natural mandala of constellations, planets, asteroids, clouds of gas, source of life and death. The eternal circle of life. The cosmos always has intrigued me. Ever since I was a little girl I used to look at the stars, longing to discover what was up there. But I also had the feeling that I already knew what was happening...

The waking up of a little boy

I made this drawing with water paint. That was a new material for me, as I only worked with oil paint. The painting shows a little boy just waking up from his dreams and he sees all kind of things around him, like a fisherman, a window, dolphins. I made a mandala drawing of this.
