Have you ever thought of this? Why are fairy tales still alive and relevant in our sometimes gray and fussy life?
I think they have a secret. Fairy tales keep in themselves the unique power that each child feels. This is faith in a bright future and miracles, faith in a good and kind beginning.
The older we get, the less light inside us. We stop noticing magic and beauty.
We are increasingly drowning in the routine of our lives. In pursuit of material goods and success, we slowly begin to go crazy with monotony, constantly experience stress and dream to escape to where fantasy is able to draw a different world than usual, where dreams become reality, and good will surely triumph over evil.
My watercolor works depicting fabulous girls, personifying the elements of fire and water - this is a reminder that to believe and love fairy tales with their amazing world and endless possibilities is not at all naive. This gives us back the strength and perseverance that is inherent in every fabulous hero to defeat enemies and overcome any difficulties.
