Somewhere along the dreamland

自從完成大天使之後
好想畫一幅更大的畫
紅色作為底色

起初「看見」了
有隻小獨角獸
在白合花的花瓣中
幻想 發夢⋯⋯

開始畫時 心忐忑不安
會畫到一種詩意的感覺嗎?
小馬反叛地黑色 感覺如何?
百合花會畫得飄逸嗎?

創作一種是相信與希望
慢慢畫 逐步顯現
一切又比想像中容易

小獨角上還有另一隻成熟的 
在自由飛翔的成熟的大獨角獸
她是小獨角獸的夢想?還是媽媽?

繼續畫
以1x3米的畫板
盛載了這個夢幻小故事

記起2015年在法國尼斯許願
希望有朝一日 畫完畫
會像Chagall一樣流露出
如孩童般的滿意笑容
七年過去
今天夢想成真了

畫這幅畫的過程
真的笑了很多次
有次是小馬出生時
有次是覺得自己的心淡定與平靜
有次是朋友來看我畫畫 然後心結解開了

隨心聆聽
我樂意做上天的小畫筆

I always want to paint a big canvas
Brilliant red as the foundation 

At the beginning
I "saw" a little unicorn sitting quietly 
inside the petals of the lily
dreaming of something

After making some drafts, I felt this piece was a mission of “impossible”
Impossible to paint in poetic way 
Impossible to creat the unicorn in rebelliously black?
Impossible to paint the lilies gracefully?

Gradually I changed and knew that it’s “I’m possible” instead
Every creation is about faith, hope and Love
everything is easier than I imagined as started 

Later I found another bigger unicorn on top of the little one, flying freely 
Is she a mother unicorn?
Or it the unicorn's dream? 
They wandered in the dreamland

Embracing this little story into a 3meters canvas
As throwing back, I had made a wish in Nice in 2015
Hopefully one day, I would put a big childlike-smile with contentment after finishing my painting, like Chagall

Seven years later, my wish do come true

I smiled for so many times during the process 
When the little unicorn was born
When I feel calm and peace
And when a friend came and sitting next to me, her long lasting problems got solved while watching my brushing moving

Simply follow my heart
And I am one of God's little happy paintbrush
