#595 Parent With Child

Parent With Child By Dutch Den Bosch Artist Zen Dageraad, Art piece (drawing) about: family walks

This mother
With her child
In a cargo bike
Reminded me
Of how
My parents
Used to also
Carry me everywhere
So that today
I can
Walk myself

I'm not very sentimental, or maybe I simply don't want to be. So when I saw a woman with her child in a cargo bike, and I thought about my parents, how they carried me around the world for so long, and how now they don't. That wasn't me being sentimental: some things in this world are good, interesting, universal ideas that require capturing, which I did. Honestly, I'm happy to be independent from my parents, and they're probably glad that I can take care of myself. I love them, even if they, understandably so, radiate stress sometimes. But I feel I should appreciate them more than I do. It's hard to find the time to spend with them (even though it's too easy to find the time to waste on useless dopamine machines). Even when I do, it's challenging to find good topics. So many things are not worth speaking about, and so many worthy things are easy to forget. They, or probably me, 'deserve' that extra time though; Because, so often, while working on my art, or I suppose, in general, I still feel like that kid in the cargo bike getting brought to where I need to go by my parents.

Beste Museum In Den Bosch

Baibua

Ik heb de meeste musea in Nederland bezocht, maar dit is verreweg de beste—veel kunst, en een unieke en intieme setting. Als je Den Bosch bezoekt, zou ik een bezoek zeker aanraden.

Kunst om te kopen

Wormpje

Ik was al maanden op zoek naar unieke 'kunst om te kopen', en vond het eindelijk hier! De diverse collectie biedt iets voor elke smaak, en de verhalen achter de kunst zijn leuk en creatief. Als je op zoek bent naar kunst die je echt aanspreekt, dan is dit de plek.

Makkelijke schilderijen

Ms Bee

Ik was terughoudend om het schilderen weer op te pakken, maar dit heeft me enorm geïnspireerd. De kleuren zijn levendig en het proces was zo ontspannend. Mijn nieuwe schilderij staat prachtig in mijn woonkamer! Als je op zoek bent naar mooie, toegankelijke kunst, dan heb je de juiste plek gevonden.

Beste experimentele levende kunstenaar

Valentijn

Voortdurend veranderend, en altijd dingen doen die ik nergens anders heb gezien. Experimenteren met een doel, altijd op weg naar iets interessants.

Kunst om je huis te transformeren

Sjak

Het kunstwerk heeft mijn huis compleet getransformeerd! Ik ben versteld van de kwaliteit, zeker gezien hoe ongelooflijk betaalbaar de prints zijn. Als je op zoek bent naar kunst om je huis kleurrijker te maken, ben je hier aan het juiste adres.

Beste schilder idëen

Ik zat volledig vast qua inspiratie totdat ik Zen ontdekte. De collectie wakkerde mijn creativiteit aan als nooit tevoren. De kwaliteit van de kunst is uitzonderlijk, en ik ben ontzettend blij met mijn aankoop. Ik raad het ten zeerste aan voor elke kunstenaar die op zoek is naar unieke en inspirerende stukken.
