Leonid Afremov's Art ~ Black's Wonderful Life

***Thanks Cuz, Monica Zambrano Cohen, for the GREAT SHARE!!!***

Leonid Afremov (born 1955) is a Belarusian painter. His paintings are often vividly-coloured landscapes, cityscapes and figures, and are typically painted using a palette knife and oil paint.

Afremov graduated from Vitebsk Art School, which was founded by Marc Chagall in 1921 and has had many notable patrons including Kazimir Malevich and Wassily Kandinsky. After discovering that only communist propaganda posters would sell in the Soviet Union, Afremov moved to Israel in 1990. Within two weeks, he had found a job in an advertising agency painting billboards, but on the eve of an exhibition, his studio was broken into and vandalised. After having his art gallery vandalized by orthodox Jews, Leonid moved to the United States.

He currently resides in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico.

Listen to this beautiful song, while you look at the paintings

of LEONID AFREMOV and read its messages.

I'M GOING TO CONTINUE

I will continue to believe, even when the people lose hope. I will continue giving love, although others sow hatred. I will continue to build, even when others destroy.

I'm going to continue talking of peace, even in the midst of war.

[samnmman]

I'll continue illuminating, even in the midst of darkness. And I will continue planting, although others tread the harvest. And I will keep crying, while others remain silent. And I will bring smiles on faces with tears. And I will pass on relief, when you see pain.

And I will bring happiness where there is sadness.

[samnmman]

I will invite you to walk when you decided to stay. And I will lift up those who have given up. Because in the midst of desolation, there will always be a child that we see, hopeful, expecting something from us, and even in the midst of a storm, somewhere it the sun shines and will grow a plant in the middle of the desert.

[samnmman]

There will always be a bird that sings, a child that smiles and a butterfly who shows us their beauty. But...If one day you see that I do not follow, not smiling, I'll shut up, just come and give me a kiss, a hug or give me a smile, that will be enough, surely it will happen to me in the life I have slapped and I was instantly surprised. Only a gesture from you will do from me now on.

[samnmman]

Never forget...

THE KISS MORE DIFFICULT IS NOT THE FIRST, BUT THE LAST...

ENJOY TODAY, IT’S LATER THAN YOU THINK...

THE POSSIBLE TODAY WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO TOMORROW...

THE SMILE IS THE UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE OF INTELLIGENT PEOPLE.

STILL, IT CONTINUES...AS YOU WERE...DO NOT HESITATE...ACCOMPLISH...

ONE IS THE SUM OF WHAT HAS BEEN LIVED.

TODAY WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO POSSIBLE TOMORROW.

THE SMILE IS THE SIMPLEST FORM OF GRATITUDE…

[samnmman]

Here I go out to sea again The sunshine fills my hair And dreams hang in the air Gulls in the sky and in my blue eyes You know it feels unfair There's magic everywhere Look at me standing Here on my own again Up straight in the sunshine No need to run and hide It's a wonderful, wonderful life No need to hide and cry It's a wonderful, wonderful life
