Die Schlüsselblume in der Mythologie eine Pflanze die hinters Ohr gesteckt mit der rechten Gesinnung den Weg in die Anderwelt weist. Die Welt jenseits der sichtbaren Welt, jene der Träume, Ahnungen und des Unbewussten. Mein Bild der Schlüsselblume habe ich "Hello Beauty" genannt. Ganz einfach, so wie die Schlüsselblume auch einfach ist. Es ist eine meiner ersten Arbeiten mit Pflanzen gewesen, von 2008 und hat mir wohl, (jetzt wo ich drüber schreibe, erkenne ich es erst), tatsächlich den Schlüssel zum Tor in die Welt der Pflanzen anvertraut. 

Damals hatte ich mein Atelier noch in Mooseurach, ein geliebter Ort dessen naturbelassene Umgebung meine Arbeit maßgeblich beeinflusst hat. Die Enkel und Urenkel dieses Schlüsselblümchens, blühen wohl jetzt auch wieder dort. Ich pflückte den Urahn, nahm ihn mit ins Atelier und zeichnete ihn mit dem Japanpinsel auf eine entfettete Kupferplatte, füllte die Zeichnung mit einem Aquatintastaub, brannte ihn ein, ätzte ihn, entfernte Abdecklack und Carborundum, mischte die Farben an, färbte die Platte, wischte mit Gaze das Umfeld, legte ein feuchtes Bütten darüber, einige Lagen Filz und druckte es auf meiner Handdruckpresse. (auf YouTube gibt´s ein kleines Lehrvideo zur Aquatintatechnik: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiw9XWqKRtE&t=78s). 

Sobald man den Druckstock erstellt hat, kann man ihn mit beliebigen Farben einfärben und interpretieren. Hier sind zwei Beispiele. Der Druck in Apricot und Rot wird gerahmt angeboten. Die gelbe Version kommt als großformatiger Pigmentprint. Preise dafür gerne auf Anfrage. 

 

The cowslip in mythology — a plant that, tucked behind the ear with the right disposition, shows the way to the Otherworld. The world beyond the visible world; the realm of dreams, premonitions, and the unconscious. I named my painting of the cowslip "Hello Beauty" — quite simply, just as the cowslip itself is simple. It was one of my first works with plants, from 2008, and — now that I write about it, I realize it for the first time — it truly entrusted me with the key to the gate into the world of plants.

Back then, I still had my studio in Mooseurach, a beloved place whose unspoiled natural surroundings profoundly influenced my work. The grandchildren and great-grandchildren of this little cowslip are probably blooming there again right now. I picked the ancestor, brought it into the studio, and drew it with a Japanese brush onto a degreased copper plate, filled the drawing with aquatint dust, burned it in, etched it, removed the stop-out varnish and carborundum, mixed the colours, inked the plate, wiped the surrounding area with gauze, laid a sheet of dampened laid paper over it, added several layers of felt, and printed it on my hand press. (There's a short tutorial on the aquatint technique on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiw9XWqKRtE&t=78shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiw9XWqKRtE&t=78s)

Once the printing plate has been created, it can be inked in any colours and interpreted in different ways. Here are two examples. The print in apricot and red is offered framed for 520.-. The yellow version is available as a large-format pigment print. Prices available on request.

The best shoe brand I have found for toddlers! Exceptional quality
Size: 12 Little Kid, Color: Black/Beige
I have ordered a handful of shoes from Mini Melissa in the past, so I knew to size up. I typically order 1 to 3 sizes larger than what my daughter currently wears depending on the season and type of shoe. For this shoe, I ordered about 3 sizes up, so that she will be able to wear them next spring / summer and I am glad I did. They are a little large on her now, but I know we will get a lot of use out of them next summer playing in the yard, pool and beach! As with all Mini Melissa shoes, the first thing I do when I open the box is smell them - their shoes have the most pleasant scent! They make the best jelly-like quality shoes; they are absolutely worth the price for the quality and style you receive. They hold up very well - they are the only shoes that she outgrows before the shoe breaks down or looks unwearable. My daughter has worn many of their styles, and has never gotten a blister or complained about the comfort. They are supportive, but flexible and even as young as she is, she gets so excited for cute shoes! I ordered the beige and black for something neutral we can wear with many different outfits and that won't show dirt on the sole. The color is exactly as pictured. I really appreciate that top straps are functional and adjustable. She has a bit of a wider foot, so this allows us to get even more use out of them. I am very glad I ordered these and will continue to tell my friends about what I find to be the best shoe brand for toddlers and kids!
