Flow December and dreams that come true

What a year this year has been. Full of challenges, goals, hard work and surprises. One year and three websites later, three big dreams. My street numbers site that you are visiting right now, my portfolio page with all my paintings: http://filotheisart.com and the last but not least, since it has been a dream before I even met street numbers: http://sushithecat.com.

Many hours of daydreaming, hard work and people who played an important role in this whole process. Then dreams become true and are not daydreams anymore. Another dream was to see my work in my favorite magazine Flow. A magazine that I loved from the first moment I hold it in my hands. It was really love at first site. Articles about creative people and their work. About living in the moment and the now and taking the time to enjoy. About life and its beauty. And oh my, all these “extras”, the little paper surprises that make you happy and make you want to create, to share, to enjoy and be for a moment a kid again.

I receive Flow at home but this month was special. Not only because it was the December issue, but because in this very issue my website with my “streetnumbers” was mentioned in a beautiful article written by Ilse Savenije. Thank you so much Ilse for this wonderful article. Thank you Flow for making my dream come true. One more time in my life that proves that if you keep dreaming, dreams come true.

 

Time in numbers

Time flies. How many times we thought of it, we said it or felt it? Daily in my case. I made a promise with myself to post at least once a month. But then life happens. And time flew and the promise was not kept. But the promise and the need to spot them everywhere I go was kept.

Amsterdam, Crete and the numbers that I met since the last blog post. During that time my website with all my paintings and my creations went online filotheisart.com and my third and last dream sushithecat.com is also ready. What a year it has been. A year full of goals, creativity, new challenges, new friends, new dreams coming true and many, many, many numbers.

 

Welcome home

 

It has been a dream of mine for the last few years and now it is finally reality. A home for my “str33t numbers”.
At first most people ask me why numbers, while others look surprised when I introduce them to my street numbers photos. But once they see them they also see the beauty I saw in them. Read More
