Honesty - WHITE

Definitely color of honesty is WHITE. This is when a person looks into your eyes and without any word you can read on his face what he wants to say.. "I love you, I'm wrong, I'm afraid" or "You are an idiot, I was disgusted, it's awful, your new dress makes you fat, I’m just not in a mood..."
How easily we could live if everyone says what he thinks, or at least if people could read each other’s minds. Then everything had to be white. You won’t expect that anything is happening behind your back, you won’t afraid to be misunderstood. Maybe that’s why color of heaven is chosen white.



WHITE: without patterns, bumps and shadows.

Black

"I've been 40 years discovering that the queen of all colors was black." -- Pierre-Auguste Renoir



In Wikipedia is written that Black is the color of objects that do not emit or reflect light in any part of the visible spectrum; they absorb all such frequencies of light. Although black is sometimes described as an "achromatic", or hueless, color, in practice it can be considered a color, as in expressions like "black cat" or "black paint".

It is strange that black is so appealed to us. It is associated with death and evil, but at the same time with religion, fashion, sexuality, power, strength and intelligence. It stands for completely opposite ideas like: sin and holiness, wealth and poverty, good and bad.

The colour attracts us so much in everyday life. Basic things that surround us..black sky, black hair, black eyes(it is so fascinating to see black eyes . Especially when they are “burning” with an idea).


I guess it's really the "queen of all colours" , the mix of all that attracts the most.

Meissen porcelain

Meissen porcelain is the first and for a half a century the best porcelain in Europe. Founded in 1710 as the Royal Saxon Porcelain Manufacture by Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony and King of Poland, at Meissen, near Dresden. It set a very high standard even in China.




The latest initials on the products were AR (Augustus Rex, the monogram of the King), K.P.M. (Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur), M.P.M. (Meissener Porzellan-Manufaktur), and K.P.F. ("Königliche Porzellan-Fabrik), but then in 1725 were replaced with crossed swords . Variations in the "crossed swords" logotype allow approximate dating of the wares.







In 2010 the manufacture will celebrate its 300th anniversary.

Good technique

The worst thing when you’re on your own, a self-taught person is that you have to improve your creativeness and technique simultaneously, and you need much time to make progress in your job.
When you’re going to an interview there is a question about your future, like "what you would like to be after 10 years". Recently I was thinking about the question, and I've got an answer. I’d like to have a great technique in representing my surrounding world.Because otherwise it's like you have an idea,but don't know how to say it.

There are 3 images that I've found at deviantart.com and understood that this is exactly what I need.

With or without color

The people with Albinism have little or no pigment in their eyes, skin, or hair. They have inherited altered genes that do not make the usual amounts of a pigment called melanin, which is responsible for the color. The principal gene which results in Albinism prevents the body from making the usual amounts of this pigment.

It is not a disease, infection and cannot be transmitted through contact, the thing is more complicated.

“The genes for Albinism are located on “autosomal” chromosomes. Autosomes are the chromosomes that contain genes for our general body characteristics, contrasted to the sex chromosomes. We normally have two copies of these chromosomes and the genes on them – one inherited from our father, the other inherited from our mother. Neither of these gene copies is functional in people with Albinism. However, Albinism is a “recessive trait”, so even if only one of the two copies of the Albinism gene is functional, a person can make pigment, but will carry the albinism trait. Both parents must carry a defective albinism gene to have a child with Albinism. When both parents carry the defective gene (and neither parent has albinism) there is a one in four chance at each pregnancy that the baby will be born with Albinism. This type of inheritance is called “autosomal recessive” inheritance.”

There are a lot of attitudes towards albino people in different cultures of the world. On Fiji Islands they are usually very respectful and high-ranking people, on the contrary in Africa their life is very complicated.
There is a belief in South Africa, that after death albinos are disappearing, like dissolving in the air.

All my life this phenomenon was associated with purity, transparency and tenderness. When I was a child I thought that these people were angels. Now, when I see their photos I think that maybe there is something there, and only the nature knows the answer.
