I love the countryside, but I do get inspired by the city life, too.
Have you ever wandered how incredible it is that so many people live their lives in one place? The evening is the best time to see that, when thousands of windows are lit and it almost seems like these cold, hard shells of modern buildings are heated from within with people's lives, passions, cares and joys.

It is a long time since I have lived in a city but I do get a buzz from a night time visit. A great interpretation Marielle.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Elaine. I enjoyed reading the story on your blog about how you moved from town to the country. I hope to do that myself one day, too. Nevertheless, city can be magical as well.
DeleteMarielle - this really captured the lights one does see in the city...love the way this painting sparkles. Like you I often drive by places at night and wonder what folks are doing inside - are they happy or sad what is really going on in their lives? Very lovely my friend.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Debbie, for your thoughtful comment!
