Art part 1

This time I will start with a personal description, a subjective presentation of an event that has excited me more in visual and less in words; who pleased me, let's say, a lot from the visual point of view. Where art is involved, of course, there is also a man who creates emotions in shadows and gloomy colors, images and portraits of Romanian rural and natural environment. 

Where art is involved, of course, there is also a man who creates emotions in shadows and gloomy colors, images and portraits of Romanian rural and natural environment. 

In this town pointed on the map, Turda, happened an exhibition in a quite big room of the History Museum. The image in your mind should be like this: an old man in traditional clothes, Romanian traditional clothes, two critics - a friend of him and a local critic - and a crowd fo curious people and me...myself, my enthusiastic, impatient self! 

This artist is a bright light! Thank you for all the shades you share with us.
