Once, about 10 years ago, I was riding in an evening minibus. Life was depriving me with renewed vigor, mumbling dissatisfied people around me aroused love in me, and I wished them happiness.
Someone stepped on my foot and stared at my bare feet and nailed down with street dust, and half the bus stared on me.
Well, what can you do - few people understand this spectacle, but to explain to everyone that having lived from spring to summer in nature, I always walked barefoot. And when autumn came and I had to move to the city, I really didn’t want to put on shoes. And I didn’t see the point in wearing shoes, because the bare foot brings you closer to the earth, to nature and to yourself, that one is simply useful.
Everything else about the fungus and foot injuries did not scare me, and between everything that was said, neither the first nor the second happened to me.
In short, I liked walking barefoot. And public opinion has never deterred me.
And just in this minibus, among the noise and voices, I heard a fragment of someone's phrase. It sounded like “Shit doesn’t sink,” but I heard “Goodness doesn’t sink.”
I felt a warm response in my heart and immediately realized that I had to connect my life with this statement. After all, this is the same working law of karma!
Our low-frequency deeds do not dissolve without a trace, and high-vibration deeds always stay afloat.
Time passed, and gradually I got acquainted with this phrase, painting with it entrances, elevators, a board at the university, at home and gifts for friends.
Over time, the phrase has its own style and some recognition. It is with me now.
And for the first time I embodied it in painting.
In this picture, I combined two native and personal images - a sailboat, which I painted from early childhood, and this slogan "Good doesn't sink."
