Sometimes it’s very difficult to remember how this or that visual story was formed and an artwork appeared. What are the details of the puzzle?
A sketch of an interesting movement in a sketch book, birdwatching in a city park, a woman in an evening tram dressed in a black coat, seen and somehow holding my attention, a combination of black, white, ocher and English red in winter Prague colours, which caught my eye, English nursery rhyme, childhood memories ...
All this together is somehow melted, mixed , often in secret even from the author, and the painting is obtained.
Despite the combination of large local color relationships, this artwork is painted by brush in several layers , which allows us to convey the depth and metaphorical ambiguity of the character

Nursery rhyme:
One for sorrow,
Two for joy,
Three for a girl,
Four for a boy,
Five for silver,
Six for gold,
Seven for a secret,
Never to be told.
Eight for a wish,
Nine for a kiss,
Ten for a bird,
You must not miss
