'Connection'
11 September 2018 A birthday present for my friend.
Silently she is with her bruised soul, asleep in oblivion. She just so often want to reach out, grab her face and whisper ever so delicately: you are loved.

The Sketch Hunter – 17cm x 14cm on linen
She carries her sketchbook everywhere, collecting ideas.
---------------------
The sketch hunter moves through life as he finds it, not passing negligently the things he loves, but stopping to know them, and to note them down in the shorthand of his sketchbook. Like any hunter he hits or misses. He is looking for what he loves, he tries to capture it. It’s found anywhere, everywhere. Those who are not hunters do not see these things. The hunter is learning to see and to understand—to enjoy.
