    I would love to see one of these paintings of yours, Dagmar. They sound complex indeed.

    All the best as ever,

    First of all, the language you used is not silent at all.
    It's alive!

    I guess you used metaphors to portray the truth.
    Now, the thing with metaphors is they strike to us as per our knowledge towards them.
    Like to me, the canvas struck as your face or your inner self, the real you, may be.
    Your inner self wants to feel all the colors of life like happiness, love, etc. but you always end up on just one color black also known as depression.

    While talking to others you use some silent or empty or dark expressions on your face (an exact replica of your soul) so that others couldn't find out that your inner self isn't happy at all through your face.

    If they know what you have been hiding in your heart for so long or you share your thoughts with them, the layers of paint and this time I guess paint means tears will come out from your eyes slowly running down the face.

    Maybe that's the reason you don't interact much with others and they misunderstand you or misjudge you for being an arrogant person because they don't know the suffering you are going through, it's only your inner self which knows the truth.

    Miss Dagmar, seriously, I have no idea where I went with my interpretation.
    It could be something very simple and I could be wrong too.

    All the best!

    wow! Miss Dagmar,

    This piece has such a depth to it. I imagine your paintings full of your emotions and feelings. I love the way you have used words to describe how you paint, and what you bring out with all different colours.
    A truly wonderful poem lady and glad to see this nominated.
    Much love
    Michael :)x

    Yes I wonder how many paintings are misconstrued from the artists true meaning in them? This is great Dagmar and I love that you have more than one creative outlet. :-) x
